Overcoming the aggregators

The customer acquisition landscape has undergone a profound transformation in recent years thanks to the emergence of aggregator platforms.

These platforms have become a central component of consumers’ decision-making processes across everything from travel, finance, hospitality and insurance to utilities and even takeaways. Companies like Booking.com, MoneySupermarket, Compare the Market, USwitch, Airbnb, and Uber Eats have leveraged aggregator models to reshape how consumers discover and engage with brands—offering many a seemingly easy avenue into new audiences and potential buyers.
