Media
Also known as
commerce advertising
It generalizes retail media beyond a single retailer. Transaction data is what makes commerce media valuable and hard for third-party audience approaches to match.
In practice
Judge a commerce-media buy by the quality of the underlying purchase data and the closed-loop measurement, not by reach alone.
