Claritas and Affinity Solutions Partner to Power Brand ROI – Exactly How and Where Consumers Spend their Money

Claritas clients can now leverage Affinity Solutions’s expansive universe of consumer purchase data to measure the sales outcomes of marketing campaigns.

Claritas, a data-driven company that helps marketers achieve superior ROI, and Affinity Solutions, the leading consumer purchase data platform focused on outcome-based solutions, have partnered to provide a seamless solution that enables marketers to use credit and debit card transaction data to target consumers based on purchase history and to accurately measure the sales outcomes of their multichannel marketing campaigns.

Combining Affinity Solutions’ Consumer Purchase Data platform with Claritas’ segmentation, custom audience capabilities and campaign measurement tools creates a market leading activation and measurement solution for marketers to easily create prospecting audiences based on individual purchase history and to accurately measure the direct sales lift that resulted from their marketing campaigns.

The joint solution enables marketers to measure the effectiveness of individual online and offline channels – including OTT/CTVstreaming audio, podcast, and mobile channels. Creative and messaging can also be A/B tested and optimized “in-flight” to boost campaign return on investment (ROI).

Affinity’s Consumer Purchase Data platform includes over 7.4 billion annual credit and debit card transactions from over 100MM cards. Transactions span across 4,200 merchant brands, online and offline channels, and all 50 states to accurately reflect U.S. consumer spend. The data collected is fully permissioned for marketing use cases and is 100% compliant with privacy regulations.
