What is ROAS?

ROAS is pivotal in digital ads, showing revenue against campaign costs. Higher ROAS means more revenue than costs, showcasing campaign effectiveness.

ROAS, or Return on Advertising Spend, is a crucial metric in digital advertising, reflecting revenue relative to ad costs. Calculated by dividing campaign revenue by total spend, ROAS gauges campaign efficiency and ROI. A higher ROAS indicates more revenue than costs, highlighting campaign effectiveness.

ROAS = (Total Revenue) / (Total Spend)


For example, if a $1,000 campaign generates $5,000 revenue:


ROAS = $5,000 / $1,000 = 5


For every $1 spent, $5 revenue is earned. At Topsort, we ensure end-to-end attribution to accurately measure ROAS, providing advertisers with comprehensive insights into the effectiveness of their campaigns across the entire customer journey.
