A working definition

Start here.Rollup means a marketing concept. The value is in a shared, precise definition, not in knowing the word.

L2 batching transactions

In Marketing, Rollup names a marketing concept. Pin the meaning down early and the strategy stays coherent.

Where the mechanics matter

One idea, plainly put.Rollup is no fixed dial. How it behaves depends on your audience, your channel mix, and the strategy around it.

Rollup is not a switch you flip. It names a moving idea, and the way it plays out shifts with the setup. A lean team running one paid channel applies Rollup differently than a brand running ten. Use Rollup loosely and teams pull apart; pin it down and the math lines up.

One rule always holds. Settle the scope of Rollup up front, then build the plan. Get it backwards and Rollup becomes a word everyone uses and no one shares. Hold that thought.

When it matters

Use Rollup when it changes an outcome. For marketing teams, that tends to be three recurring moments. With no choice live, Rollup is good to know, not to chase.
