View-Through Conversion

Quick answer

A conversion credited after someone saw (not clicked) an ad earlier.

Definition

View-through conversions attribute sales to display or video ads the user saw within a lookback window without clicking. They are directionally useful and systematically inflated - people who would have converted anyway get counted.

Why it matters

Treat VTC as a tiebreaker between otherwise equal channels, never as justification for display budgets on its own.
