Attribution Model

An attribution model defines how a total credit of 100% is distributed among touchpoints of a customer journey. The Ingenious Attribution distributes the total credit by allocating parts of the total credit to particular touchpoints. You can define how the Ingenious Attribution allocates parts of the credit by configuring functions.

Functions

Functions allocate credits to touchpoints. Typically you will define multiple functions within an attribution model. The final credit of a touchpoint will be the combination of the results of all functions.

The Ingenious Attribution supports multiple types of functions. Each function type implements a different method of allocation.

The following table shows the different function types:
