Send data to DV360¶
Display & Video 360 (DV360) enables advertising on connected TVs (CTVs), such as Android TV and Chromecast, online video platforms, such as YouTube, along with providing access to a variety of third-party partner exchanges.
What is Google Customer Match?
Google Customer Match is a unified ad creation tool that you can use to create and publish search, display, and video ads across the Google-owned paid media ecosystem.
For example:
Use Discovery campaigns to reach customers in the Promotions and Social tabs in Gmail .
Use Google Ads to configure campaign types for search, display, video, app, local, hotel, call, smart, goal-based, and shopping.
Run ads within search results on Google.com .
Run ads within the Shopping tab on Google.com .
Send audiences to DV360, and then run video advertising campaigns in YouTube Ads or on web pages using any of the available placement options . DV360 supports advertiser and partner networks.
Use Amperity to build high-value and/or product affinity segments that are based on first-party data, and then configure Amperity to use the Google Customer Match destination to send those segments to DV360.
Once uploaded, Google Customer Match hashes each record, and then matches all records against hashed user accounts that already exist in Google Customer Match to identify segments that contain records that match the ones sent from Amperity.
Google Customer Match builds audience lists that are reachable across the Google-owned paid media ecosystem.
Use these audience lists for precision cross-selling, to reach and convert new customers, and to improve the retention rate for your most loyal customers.
Note
This destination uses the Google Audience Partner API .
Changes to audiences are not immediately available in DV360. Allow for up to 48 hours after the point at which Amperity has finished sending audience updates for them to be available.
