Three-quarters of marketers say that while click-based attribution is simple-to-use, it isn't the best way to track campaign performance, according to this report by EMARKETER and WorkMagic.
Get an in-depth look into marketers' pivot into incrementality, why retail media is leading the way, and just how much your attribution stack could be miscrediting your ads' true performance.
Most CAPI integrations give your ad platforms more data.
WorkMagic gives them better data.
Introducing the iCAPI: incrementality-calibrated signals + cross-channel deduplication, so your ad platforms stop optimizing toward conversions that would've happened anyway.

Can opening a retail store impact online sales?
Branch wanted a clear answer.
They opened a store in San Francisco and measured it like a performance channel—not just POS.
What showed up:
• 📈 ~28–29% lift in total orders after opening
• 🌊 Halo grew from ~39% → ~63% happening outside POS
• 🛒 Store visits often led to online purchases later
Most of this would’ve been invisible in in-store data alone.
Instead of cannibalizing ecom, the store amplified it.

Most brands think they have attribution — what they actually have are signals.
At the recent TikTok Shop Summit, our VP of Measurement Lauren Lauth broke down why that distinction matters — and what it's costing brands who don't know the difference.

Two simple tests unlocked $2M in monthly revenue on Snapchat.
Despite strong creative and growing momentum from viral campaigns like the Airplane Mode drop, Comfrt wanted some clarity about their ads.
So Comfrt ran two lift tests:
• Test 1 → understand true incremental impact
• Test 2 → push spend to ~2× and validate again
Results at scale:
• 📈 Higher incremental ROAS (not lower)
• 🌊 Meaningful halo across Shopify + other channels
• 👥 New customer contribution held

Most brands undervalue CTV.
Not because it doesn’t work — but because they’re looking for its results in the wrong place.
A leading personal care brand tested Universal Ads across their omnichannel business (DTC, Amazon, retail, TikTok Shop).
What they found:
• 7.0× iROAS across the business
• +7.0% incremental lift
• 44% of orders from new customers
• 95% of incremental orders happened outside Shopify
That last one changes everything.
If they had looked at DTC alone, they would have missed nearly all of CTV’s impact.
→ Amazon captured the majority of conversions
→ Retail and TikTok Shop picked up the rest
→ Shopify told only a fraction of the story
Once halo was included:
• iROAS was 4.8× higher than DTC-only reporting
• CPA dropped by ~95%
Same campaigns. Completely different conclusion.
With awareness channels like CTV, the right question isn't:
“Is it working on Shopify?”
It’s:
“What is it driving across the entire business?”
Incrementality tests — sounds great in practice, but hard to make actionable right?
Not exactly.
In this live session with Taylor Rock and Robert, they'll share how they approached this at Clorox, Burt’s Bees, and Jordan Craig, and get their cross-functional teams working off the same foundation.

@neurogum was built on a pretty simple idea: performance should be grounded in science.
So when they tested CTV, they treated it the same way.
Instead of relying on attribution, they ran a geo lift test across DTC + TikTok Shop to establish a true baseline.
• ~3× incremental ROAS
• 63% of revenue came from halo
• 36% from new customers 
Only ~37% of impact showed up on DTC.
Which means most of CTV’s value would’ve gone uncredited in standard reporting.
For an omnichannel brand, that’s the difference between underinvesting and scaling with confidence.
If you’re running CTV (or considering it), it’s worth asking: where is the rest of the impact actually showing up?
First-order profitability is becoming the north star for brands — and TikTok delivers. 58% of orders come from new customers, with an AOV that’s 46% higher than average.
