Narrative releases software to enable direct integration with The Trade Desk via Unified ID 2.0

Brands, retailers, and other data providers will be able to easily create addressable audiences to support advertiser campaigns in The Trade Desk platform.

New York, NY, October 27, 2022  -- Narrative, the world's #1 data commerce platform, today announced a new partnership with global advertising technology leader The Trade Desk, enabling organizations to match their first-party data with Unified ID 2.0 and make them available for use by advertisers on The Trade Desk platform.

An industry-wide approach to identity for the open internet, Unified ID 2.0 (UID2) allows users to create an identifier from hashed and salted email addresses in an effort to maintain the value exchange of the internet, while aiming to equip consumers with upgraded privacy controls.

"We are proud to also support the next generation of identity solutions in Unified ID 2.0 to maintain a healthy digital media ecosystem. Our partnership with The Trade Desk makes it easier than ever for our mutual customers to create meaningful new revenue streams from the data they collect by enabling them to create valuable, addressable audience segments with just a few clicks."

Narrative's user-friendly, no-code software makes it easy for brands, retailers, and publishers to slice and dice their CRM and behavioral data into new audience segments without needing to know code. With this new partnership, organizations can now activate their first- and third-party audiences on The Trade Desk using UID2 identifiers with just a few clicks.

With Narrative and The Trade Desk, data owners will be able to:

  • Use their first-party data to create valuable audiences and insights for advertisers

  • Create precise first- and third-party audiences to merchandise data without needing to know code
  • Seamlessly activate custom audiences on The Trade Desk

"Data-driven advertising is one of the best ways for advertisers to eliminate media waste and drive digital media performance," said Ben Sylvan, GM of Data Partnerships, The Trade Desk. "Through working together with Narrative, we're adding new data partners and audiences to help advertisers maximize their media budgets.
