The looming cookies apocalypse will see marketers seek out digital environments where users are logged in within, brand safe, premium environments.

A panel, at Nine’s Big Ideas Store, has heard that the abolition of cookie-based marketing will fundamentally change the digital landscape for many brands and marketers.

“I think there is a scenario where there is a two speed economy where you have advertisers who are signed in versus people who are anonymous,” said Ben Campbell, Nine’s Director of Advertising and Data Products referencing the value of logged in environments like 9Now or The Sydney Morning Herald.

“Advertisers will be willing to pay to those audiences they can reach and accurately identify.

“Anonymous users who can’t be tracked will attract lower prices and lower CPMs.”
