| Platform          | Purchases | % of Total |
| ----------------- | --------- | ---------- |
| Meta Ads          | 512       | 60%        |
| Google Ads        | 268       | 32%        |
| TikTok Ads        | 67        | 8%         |
| **Blended Total** | **847**   | 100%       |

## How It Works

Blended Purchases aggregates purchase conversions attributed to your advertising across Meta, Google, and TikTok. Each platform reports conversions based on its own attribution model and window, then these values are summed to provide a unified cross-channel view of ad-driven conversions.
