How it flows
How a Skio event reaches The Trade Desk. Captured on the server, resolved to a person, then sent.
01 Capture
Captured from Skio
Capture Skio subscription events server-side, with the first charge distinguished from every renewal that follows it.

02 Understand
Resolved to one person before it leaves
Every Skio event is matched against a 750M+ device graph, so a phone browse and a desktop checkout resolve to one customer rather than two strangers.

The catch
A first charge is an acquisition and a renewal is not, but both arrive as purchases.
Sending renewals as conversions is the single most common way a subscription brand teaches Meta to re-buy its existing subscribers.
