• Enhanced Google Ads Ecosystem Integration: The new release improves the use of first-party data within Google Ads.

  • Conversion Tracking: Supports Google Enhanced Conversions (using hashed customer data) and Google Offline Conversions. These features are available as Quick Start Templates for easy implementation.
  • BigQuery Integration: Blueshift now offers a native integration with Google BigQuery to ingest data from Google Analytics (GA4) and other advertising-related sources.

Strategic Impact

• Growth Through Data Activation: According to a BCG study, brands adapting to a cookie-less future have seen up to a 100% improvement in digital marketing performance. Blueshift’s new capabilities aim to further enhance this potential by enabling more effective use of first-party data.
