How to Boost Opt-In Rates with A/B Testing

Recent global data privacy regulations require organizations to include a cookie banner that asks permission for consent. Today, companies of all sizes are challenged with deploying a banner that doesn’t create an extra layer of friction and hinder the user experience.

For instance, if a user decides to abandon the website or mobile app and doesn’t provide consent due to the cookie banner’s UI, that action impacts opt-ins and the marketing performance tracking. This can ultimately lead to a decrease in revenue and personalized ad delivery.

So, what’s the solution to maximizing consent rates, user experience, and ad delivery? We recommend using out-of-the-box templates, applying A/B testing, monitoring consent rates for all the banners tested and reconfiguring your banner based on the winning variation.
