In the post-cookie landscape, staying ahead requires innovative strategies and partnerships. This case study dives into how MiQ, a leader in the cookieless era, strengthened its Identity Spine with the integration of Experian’s cross-device Graph.
Challenge
MiQ faced a pivotal challenge in avoiding a static approach to strategies and partners while evolving its cookieless initiatives. MiQ aimed to build omnichannel interoperability by integrating privacy-first partners into its Identity Spine. MiQ’s primary objectives included:
- Reaching target audiences in privacy-compliant ways.
- Expanding their cookieless targeting solutions.
- Maintaining or increasing the scale expected from cookie-based targeting.
Solution
To address these challenges, MiQ strategically incorporated Experian’s cross-device Graph into its proprietary Identity Spine. MiQ’s Identity Spine seamlessly connects over 60 cookieless data feeds and 25 ID solutions. The integration allowed MiQ to:
- Create a unified view: MiQ now has a unified view of its clients’ target audiences, enhancing its understanding and targeting capabilities.
- Increase scale: By matching first-party data to multiple universal IDs, MiQ expanded its reach across devices, contributing to a 51% increase in seed audience reach and a 64% increase in universal IDs.
- Improve efficiency: The combination of Experian’s data with MiQ’s Identity Spine facilitated cross-device ID resolution, leading to more accurate measurement and reporting.
Experian’s global data coverage complemented MiQ’s regional expertise, amplifying global reach and adaptability to changing regulations.

Today, it costs more than $40 to send a five pound package from the U.S. to Canada or Mexico. The cost to Europe or South America is even more expensive. For U.S. companies operating on a global scale, such as retail specialists or ecommerce organizations, address accuracy is crucial. Organizations can’t afford undeliverable mail and packages due to a wrong address – the total cost would be unmanageable. Mistakes happen frequently, whether it is an error by the company or the customer. If a mistake is made, companies can’t ask the customer to cover delivery fees, leaving the organization with the bill. Retailers must also consider potential delays due to long distances and custom checks. Altogether, address errors result in a poor customer experience and a decrease in efficiency. Implementing international address verification will save money, time and improve the customer experience. By combining primary address data from national postal authorities with partner-supplied data, businesses can verify international addresses from countries all around the world.
