Transaction Data vs Mobility Data

When available, credit card transaction data gives clear insight into consumer behavior. However, there are times when mobility data is not only preferable, but may be the only data available. For instance, at events, casinos, or certain venues or vacation spots, Transaction data is also not available for non-retail locations like tourist centers, factories, farms, or ports. Mobility data can be a leading indicator for transaction data, and is therefore an important input for models.

One thing we like about Unacast is that the platform is relatively intuitive. Another thing is it offers that psychographic segmentation right in the app. At a quick glance, you can get a better understanding of the core customer.

I would absolutely recommend it to anyone who has retail or a physical presence. I think it's that missing piece of the puzzle that marketers are often kind of on the hook for, but don't really know how to get and have to make a lot of assumptions.

The latest Unacast trade areas by zip update has been a game changer. It is important because it makes it easy to see where the majority of our customers are actually coming from so we can target by zip code…then we start to think about target audiences and get into Spatial AI and selecting audiences to export to our campaigns.
