Cardlytics’ campaign reporting is the gold standard
With insight into bank transaction data, we report our exact impact on sales.
There is no need to estimate performance. These are real purchases, made by real people who saw ads in our platform.
Also important, we report on both online and in-store sales. This enables marketers to accurately track ROI regardless of where customers decide to buy.

Measure impact, not just sales
We help marketers understand the effectiveness of every dollar they spend on our platform. Commonly requested post-campaign reports include:
Test vs. Control
Quantify sales lift and incremental return
Long-Term Value
Track whether customers continue to buy
Share Shift
Measure the impact on market share
Test vs. Control
We’ve set up a rigorous test vs. control process to answer three questions every marketer wants to know:
Through our partnerships with top banks in the US and UK, we see over $3.9T in consumer spend. We use this data to evaluate customer purchases, and accurately measure a campaign’s true incremental sales impact.

Access to
third-party measurement through Nielsen
Nielsen Sales Lift Measurement calculates and reports the incremental sales lift of Cardlytics campaigns.
Long-Term Value
Long-Term Value reporting sheds light on campaign impact beyond the initial flight.
We look at the purchase patterns of people who converted from the original campaign to measure their continued loyalty to the marketer’s brand – specifically, how many more times they purchase and how much they spend.
Share Shift
Customers have seen the ad and made a purchase. But are marketers actually gaining share from competitors?
With Share Shift analysis, we help brands understand how their customers’ behavior is changing in their category, and if they’re picking up share from their competitive set.
