At Experian, we power data-driven advertising through connectivity. Today, we’re excited to introduce our newest offering, which drives that connectivity: Experian Third-Party Onboarding. This new capability empowers third-party data providers by streamlining the monetization of their audiences through Experian’s expansive network of over 20 programmatic, social, and TV platforms.
Data onboarding typically presents challenges, including complicated integration processes, limited ID matching capabilities, and opaque pricing structures, all compounded by less-than-ideal customer service. Experian Third-Party Onboarding eliminates the common barriers in the onboarding process and leaves users with a simple yet powerful solution for data providers to increase the adoption of their audiences and maximize their revenue.
A leap forward in data connectivity
Experian Third-Party Onboarding builds upon the investment and infrastructure used to distribute Experian’s own audience segments. Notably, in 2020, we began the transformation of moving away from third-party partners to using our own direct connections for audience distribution. Compared to the competition, Experian’s Third-Party Onboarding capabilities offers data providers:
- Enhanced programmatic addressability: 50% increase in programmatic addressability compared to the competition.
- Superior CTV addressability: As a top identity partner in TV, we provide a 73% increase in CTV addressability as compared to the competition.
- Vast digital reach: Approximately 3.8B digital IDs that are active and addressable on a weekly basis.
The first data providers to use Experian’s third-party onboarding capabilities are Adentro, Kontext, L2, and Webbula.
“Moving beyond cookie-only third-party onboarding solutions is critical for our users in the age of cookie deprecation, and Experian’s identity capabilities do that. Experian’s match rates and speed to turn around audiences to a large number of platforms is critical for our political buyers during this very busy campaign season.”

For British Petroleum (BP), 2010 has been marked by the unfortunate developments resulting after the Deepwater Horizon oil rig explosion in the Gulf of Mexico on April 20. Since then, BP’s crisis mismanagement and failed attempts to stop the oil spill have transformed this unfortunate event into an ecological disaster with political and financial consequences for the company. The oil leak has caused BP to lose a noticeable number of its American customers, namely their most loyal consumers. Experian Simmons DataStream shows that between April 26 and June 28, 2010 the percentage of American adults who report going to BP fell from 26.4% to 16.4%, a relative loss of 38% of their client base in just nine weeks. More astounding is the fact that BP’s most loyal consumers (those who said that BP is the gas or service station that they go to most often) declined a relative 56% during the same time. In fact, on June 28, 2010, only 9.5% of adults went to BP most often compared with 21.5% who were loyal to BP the week of the spill. With the flow of oil temporarily ceased and nearing a permanent solution, BP may finally be able to cap the flow of bad publicity and to reverse some of their loss in market share. Experian Simmons will continue to monitor this and other important consumer trends and share those findings here.
