Fintech & BFSI

Which marketing spend actually produces profitable customers, not just applications?

SpendSignal helps marketing leaders at Fintech & BFSI companies uncover true incremental ROI, including revenue traditional attribution tools miss — and turn it into confident spend decisions.

Why this is a hard question for Fintech & BFSI teams

Most Fintech & BFSI companies rely on attribution reports that:

Attribute lead volume, not funded loans or profitable customers

Can't separate seasonal effects from true brand lift

Break when regulatory changes force channel constraints

Over-optimize top-of-funnel at the expense of quality

The result? Budgets get misallocated. Efficient channels get cut. Growth stalls for reasons no one can explain.

What traditional attribution gets wrong in Fintech & BFSI

In Fintech & BFSI, channels like Meta, Google, and brand campaigns often influence buyers weeks or months later. Traditional tools stop measuring too early — leaving large portions of revenue unattributed.

Attribution rewards last-touch efficiency, not first-touch creation. This pushes budgets toward demand harvesting (retargeting, branded search) and away from demand creation (prospecting, brand, content).

How SpendSignal answers this — using incrementality

SpendSignal asks a simple question:

"What would revenue have looked like if this spend never happened?"

1

Upload historical spend and revenue

CSV or Excel with dates, revenue, and channel spend. No pixels, no SDKs.

2

Incrementality-first modeling

SpendSignal separates true causal impact from coincidence using counterfactual analysis.

3

Lag and halo detection

Captures delayed conversions and word-of-mouth effects that attribution misses.

4

Counterfactual simulations

Predicts what happens under different budget scenarios before you commit.

The 4 metrics marketing leaders in Fintech & BFSI actually use to decide spend

Unattributed ROAS

Revenue driven by ads but never credited to them

Why it matters: In Fintech & BFSI, word-of-mouth and delayed conversions create significant lift that attribution completely misses

Decision unlocked: Identifies which channels create downstream demand and hidden ROI

True ROAS (tROAS)

Actual incremental return per channel after bias correction

Why it matters: Shows which Fintech & BFSI channels truly create revenue vs harvest existing demand

Decision unlocked: Reveals under-credited channels and over-credited harvesting tactics

Source-Wise Budget Allocation

Recommended spend per channel based on incremental returns

Why it matters: Translates Fintech & BFSI insights into actionable reallocation with risk guardrails

Decision unlocked: Tells you exactly where to move budget for maximum incremental lift

Predicted ROAD

Expected incremental revenue from recommended budget allocation

Why it matters: Forecasts Fintech & BFSI outcomes before you commit, with confidence ranges

Decision unlocked: Quantifies upside and risk of budget changes before execution

Example: A Fintech & BFSI company

A Digital lending Fintech & BFSI company running Meta, Google Search, TV noticed flat growth despite stable ROAS.

SpendSignal revealed:

38% of funded loans came from unattributed sources

TV created 2.8x more demand lift than click attribution captured

Reallocating 20% from Search to TV increased predicted ROAD by 28%

Decision outcome:

Data-driven allocation delivering $320K forecasted incremental revenue

What changes after you know the truth

What gets reduced

Over-funded harvesting channels that look efficient but create little incremental demand

What gets scaled

Under-credited channels with strong causal impact on revenue and customer acquisition

What risk gets avoided

Cutting channels that attribution under-values but actually drive significant downstream lift

What future outcome gets predicted

Forecasted incremental revenue with confidence ranges before budget is committed
