Amperity Introduces Audience Monetisation, Turning First-Party Data Into New Revenue Streams For Advertisers – bandt.com.au

Amperity, the AI-powered Customer Data Cloud, has announced Audience Monetization, a new solution that helps brands unlock high-margin revenue from first-party customer data, with built-in privacy and no new infrastructure to manage.
The launch reflects a broader market shift, as privacy changes and signal loss heighten demand from advertisers for high-quality, permissioned audiences, giving brands a new opportunity to monetise their first-party customer data through second-party partnerships.
As brands look to generate new, higher-margin revenue from their data, leaders across marketing, data, and revenue teams are rethinking how customer data creates value beyond their own media investments. Audience Monetization aims to help organisations unlock incremental revenue by making high-quality, privacy-safe first-party data available to advertisers who increasingly rely on precise audiences to drive performance.
As third-party identifiers disappear, advertiser demand for accurate, privacy-safe signals is accelerating, driven in large part by the rapid growth of retail and commerce media networks. Industry analysts point to this shift as a durable revenue opportunity for brands that have invested in strong first-party data foundations.
As these networks mature, brands are learning that successful monetisation requires more than access to inventory. Trusted customer data, clear identity resolution, and governance that can scale have become essential. Without these foundations, even well-intentioned strategies often struggle to move beyond experimentation.
“Brands believe that typical teams, resources, and processes will be sufficient to build a retail or commerce media monetization strategy effectively, but they are in for a surprise. Retail media is complex, with new concepts spanning programmatic and connected TV,” IDC’s vice president of research Ananda Chakravarty said.
Chakravarty added that while brands hold some of the most valuable audience intelligence in the market, many still struggle to commercialise it at scale because they lack reliable identity resolution, scalable governance frameworks, direct connections to activation environments and operational workflows to support ongoing monetisation.
Audience Monetization aims to close these gaps by giving brands an end-to-end path to revenue that is fully governed and easy to operationalise. The solution enables teams to build and distribute audience products with confidence, while maintaining compliance and customer trust.
“Audience Monetization gives brands a new way to maximize the return on their customer data. Brands get an easy-to-use solution that packages audiences with identity-grade accuracy, routes them to trusted marketplaces, and enforces the governance needed to meet rising privacy expectations globally. It is a modern and scalable way to compete in the next era of advertising,” Amperity’s chief product officer Grigori Melnik said.
Audience Monetization aims to eliminate manual audience creation and custom onboarding processes, operational delays caused by infrequent refreshes and hand-built segments, privacy and compliance risk across audience distribution and ongoing engineering effort to support monetisation at scale.
With identity-grade accuracy and built-in governance, Amperity looks to offer brands a practical way to commercialise first-party audiences at scale, meeting advertiser demand for precision while protecting compliance and customer trust.
