What is Rockerbox?
Rockerbox is a third-party marketing analytics platform that helps businesses track and analyze their marketing efforts across various channels. This data empowers marketers to optimize their marketing strategies and allocate budgets more effectively.
Why is MNTN Integrated with Rockerbox?
MNTN's integration with Rockerbox allows advertisers to measure MNTN Verified Visits —and the business outcomes they influence—directly in the Rockerbox platform.
With this integration, marketers are able to see comprehensive cross-device performance data within Rockerbox, and truly measure the influence of CTV on a user's path to conversion, right alongside all other marketing channels.
How Does our Rockerbox Integration Work?
MNTN's integration into Rockerbox is simple:
1️⃣ When a MNTN Verified Visit™ occurs, the MNTN tracking pixel will send the visit data directly to your Rockerbox account, via webhook URL.
💡 Note: More on MNTN's Verified Visit™ attribution methodology here.
2️⃣ Rockerbox receives this visit event and verifies that this touchpoint can be attributed to a MNTN campaign. Rockerbox then includes this MNTN touchpoint in the user journey.
3️⃣ From there, Rockerbox will use the visit and impression data to then assign conversion and revenue credit to MNTN campaigns, based on the attribution settings applied to your Rockerbox reports.

Expected Performance Data Discrepancy Between MNTN and Rockerbox
Like any other attribution platform, Rockerbox will assign conversion and revenue according to their attribution window and the attribution model selected.
Conversely, MNTN will track all conversions and revenue from a targeted household within a 30 day window, following a Verified Visit.
See below for how the different attribution settings in Rockerbox may impact the performance data assigned to MNTN, and therefore impact the discrepancy between Rockerbox and the MNTN platform
Rockerbox Attribution Models:
Rockerbox will assign credit to different touch points based on where they land in the user journey or how impactful they were at driving a conversion.
🔍 Example: For instance, this may be fractional credit based on how influential a touchpoint was in driving the conversion (modeled multi-touch), or full credit only to the last touchpoint before a conversion (last touch).
See below for each of Rockerbox's default attribution models:
Modeled multi-touch (most common): Allocates fractional credit to each touchpoint relative to it's impact in driving to conversion. This model is built from data specific to each account.
First touch: 100% of conversion credit to the first touchpoint in the user’s path
Last touch: 100% of conversion credit to the last touchpoint in the user’s path
Even weight: The conversion is split evenly across each touchpoint.
Custom: Advertisers can customize any of these default models to favor some channels over others.
Rockerbox Attribution Window:
With our current integration, Rockerbox assigns a 220 day conversion attribution window following a visit event for MNTN campaigns.
MNTN Performance Ramp-up in Rockerbox:
Keep in mind that ramp up time for MNTN performance in Rockerbox may take longer than other MTA platforms (such as GA). This is due to the longer lookback window assigned to all digital channels. Rockerbox assigns fractional conversion credit (under the default modeled multi-touch) for all marketing touchpoints under this longer window, so for newer channels, it may take some time to ramp-up to expected volume of tracking marketing touchpoints in the user journey.
💡 Keep in mind: MNTN will track all conversions and revenue from a targeted household within a 30 day window, following a Verified Visit. This can differ from some of Rockerbox's attribution models, leading to an expected discrepancy in performance.
Like any multi-touch attribution model, this discrepancy can be very dependent on all the other channels you might be running. For example with Modeled Multi-Touch - if there are many touch-points in the user journey, then the fractional attribution credit will get split up into smaller amounts per channel, potentially leading to a larger discrepancy against the MNTN platform.
