Configure the following settings, and then click “Save”.

Membership duration

The length of time (in days), after which a customer will be removed from this audience. This value may be between “0” - “180”. Set this value to “0” to remove audience member.

The minimum value should be “7” because The Trade Desk 3rd-party Marketplace uses the previous seven days when building audiences. “14” is the default duration. The maximum value is “180”.

The membership duration is measured in days. Adjust the membership duration value to be greater than (or equal to) than the frequency at which your brand will send campaigns or orchestrations from Amperity.

For example, if your brand sends a campaign to The Trade Desk 3rd-party Marketplace every 30 days, then the membership duration should be set to “30”. If your brand sends a campaign every 14 days, then the membership duration should be set to “14”.

If a campaign is sent every 30 days, but the membership duration is 14, then the audience size for the last 16 days of the duration window will be 0.
