Third-party cookies are gone. The brands that own their customer data own their cost of marketing. The ones that don't are renting it from Meta and Google forever.

The four signals every D2C brand should be capturing

  • Purchase: SKU, frequency, basket composition, return behaviour
  • Engagement: app opens, push response, WhatsApp clicks, email opens
  • Intent: site behaviour, cart abandonment, browse patterns
  • Identity: phone, email, address, ATR (across-the-relationship) joins

How Fundle stitches these together

Fundle's Customer 360 module unifies these four signals into a single live profile per customer, exposes it through a natural-language query interface (Fundle Brain), and makes it actionable in every campaign and every loyalty rule. No data lake project. No 6-month CDP rollout. Deployed in 4-6 weeks.
