Criteo S.A., the global technology company powering the world’s marketers with trusted and impactful advertising, today announced the planned implementation of Nielsen’s Digital Ad Ratings (DAR), the industry standard for digital ad measurement, and Digital Brand Effect, which helps advertisers better measure and optimize brand lift metrics, with Criteo solutions.

Combining the power of Criteo’s Shopper Graph and AI Engine with audience demographic measurement from Nielsen will enable advertisers to validate consumers based on specific parameters, such as age or gender. Nielsen’s Digital Ad Ratings provides a comprehensive, de-duplicated next-day view of an ad’s audience across desktop, mobile and connected devices in a way that is comparable to Nielsen TV Ratings. As Criteo continues its evolution into a full-funnel advertising platform and aligns its technology to a broader array of marketing objectives and insights, including Connected TV, DAR measurement will help provide more transparency, flexibility and performance for brand advertisers.

Criteo has built its reputation on its unparalleled direct response advertising engine. As clients are looking for more transparency and outcomes measurement, measurement capabilities like Nielsen’s Digital Brand Effect enables Criteo clients to now understand the additional brand uplift benefits they receive from their performance-oriented campaigns.
