Incrementality & Lift Testing

Quick Definition

The measurement of conversions that occurred purely as a direct result of a specific marketing campaign and would not have happened organically.

Formula / Calculation / Syntax

Incremental Lift % = ((Conversion Rate of Test Group - Conversion Rate of Control Group) / Conversion Rate of Control Group) * 100

Incrementality testing isolates organic brand baseline sales from affiliate-driven revenue using holdout groups and randomized control trials (RCT). This guarantees that advertisers are not paying commissions on conversions that would have closed organically.
