AdTech Europe

Uploading customer lists

A customer list is a file of your existing customers that you turn into an audience — to reach them again, or to leave them out.

Where this comes from

Customer lists are part of the audience tools in the AdTech Europe suite: the Programmatic DMP (also available as a White Label DMP) and the Omnichannel Buying add-on. If your White Label DSP doesn't show customer lists yet, ask support which of these is enabled on your platform.

How it works

  1. Upload the list once. The release notes describe it as upload customer lists once, use them on every channel.
  2. Matching is hashed, so raw emails never leave your account.
  3. Use it everywhere — in programmatic campaigns and on the connected search and social channels. Since DMP v1.5, customer lists also work as audiences on TikTok, Reddit and LinkedIn.
  4. Check the reach. A reach counter shows how many people the audience can reach before you spend.

Good lists to start with

  • Customers this year — for retargeting with a new offer.
  • Newsletter readers — warm, but haven't bought.
  • Past buyers — as an exclusion, so you stop paying to reach people who already converted.

Who owns the data

Audiences belong to your account. You decide what is uploaded, so you also need a lawful basis to use the list for advertising. This is not legal advice.
