Commerce Media
Unlock the power of your audience
In today's dynamic advertising landscape, commerce media is a game-changer. It's where brands transform their existing customer engagement assets – such as loyalty data, in-store touchpoints, digital platforms and social footprint – into powerful advertising opportunities. Cedar Media works with brands including British Airways, Eurostar and Iberia to build and optimise these travel-focused commerce media networks, generating new revenue streams and enhancing customer experiences.
What is commerce media?
Commerce media is where brands unlock the power of the audiences to package advertising and engagement opportunities across their marketing channels. By behaving like a media owner and collaborating with a trusted partner like Cedar Media, brands can offer select advertisers and partners highly effective ways to reach their target audiences. This generates new revenue streams while enhancing the customer experience through relevant and engaging campaigns.
Commerce media is the fastest-growing digital media category in the UK, particularly across the retail, travel, and luxury sectors. This surge is driven by the ability of commerce media networks to target high-value audiences in captive, contextually relevant environments.
