Last-Touch Attribution is an attribution model that gives conversion credit to the final touchpoint before conversion.
Example of Last-Touch Attribution
Under a last-touch model, the final eligible recorded interaction receives conversion credit. If email is that final touch, earlier research through search may be omitted from the credited total even though it was part of the observed path.
Why Last-Touch Attribution matters
It matters because analytics turns marketing activity into decisions. Without clear measurement language, teams may misread performance, overvalue the wrong channels, or miss the actions that actually drive revenue.
