Livewire Unveils Gamer.ID: The First Privacy-Safe Identity Framework for Gaming Audiences
Gameview’s New Identity Framework Delivers Privacy-First, Cookieless Targeting and Gamer Addressability
Livewire, the global leader in gaming marketing, announced today the launch of Gamer.ID, a next-generation identity framework within its Gameview technology stack. Gamer.ID is the first gaming-native identity solution enabling brands and agencies to reach gaming audiences with precision, scale, and compliance.
At the core of Gamer.ID is Gamer.Graph, Livewire’s proprietary identity resolution engine. Gamer.Graph analyzes real-time and predictive data, empowering brands to precisely target the right players with the right messaging – all without compromising user privacy. As gaming surpasses traditional entertainment formats, brands require a purpose-built identity framework to connect with gamers across PC, console, mobile, CTV, esports, and retail media networks. Gamer.ID eliminates reliance on third-party cookies, providing deterministic, first-party gaming audience data that fuels high-impact media campaigns.
“Our mission is to continue to be a global leader in understanding gamers better than anyone,” said Indy Khabra, Co-Founder and Global Media, Data & Technology Lead. “With Gamer.ID and Gamer.Graph, we are revolutionizing audience targeting in gaming. Our privacy-first approach combines premium data intelligence with measurable results for brands. Traditional identity solutions have failed gaming audiences, but Gamer.ID enables brands to reach authentic gamers across all touchpoints—without cookies or probabilistic models. This isn't just another ID graph; it is a comprehensive gaming identity framework that bridges gaming, programmatic, and commerce. For brands serious about gaming, Gamer.ID is essential.”
As one of the most advanced gaming identity solutions built today, Gamer.ID features three core pillars:
- DMP (Data Management Platform) – Ingests and segments deterministic gaming data, giving brands real-time audience intelligence across the entire gaming ecosystem. Integrates with SSPs, DSPs, and CTV platforms for full-funnel activation.
- Gamer.Graph (Identity Graph) – Resolves millions of first-party gaming IDs, in-game engagement signals, and transactional data into privacy-safe audience cohorts, ensuring high-fidelity targeting across programmatic, in-game, and CTV activations.
- Clean Room – Provides a secure, privacy-compliant environment where brands can onboard and match first-party data without exposing personally identifiable information (PII). Supports retail media networks, CTV, and programmatic buyers.
Gamer.ID is privacy-first by design, built to meet the strictest GDPR, CCPA, and global privacy regulations. The Gameview Clean Room ensures secure data onboarding, matching, and activation, preventing data leakage and giving brands the confidence to execute campaigns in a fully compliant environment.
Through direct integrations with gaming publishers, platforms, and DSPs, Gamer.ID enables seamless programmatic activation across multiple channels. Brands can leverage Gamer.ID to power in-game and rewarded video ads across mobile, PC, and console, activate campaigns on CTV and gaming streaming platforms such as Twitch and YouTube, and connect gamer audiences to online and offline purchases through retail media and commerce networks.
“Gamer.ID is a pioneering solution that redefines identity and audience activation for the gaming economy,” said Bosko Milekic, Co-Founder of Optable. “We’re thrilled to partner with Livewire and Gameview to bring a privacy-first, interoperable identity solution to brands looking to connect with gaming audiences. As the industry moves beyond cookies and traditional tracking, solutions like Gamer.ID set a new standard for precision, compliance, and effectiveness in programmatic advertising.”
Livewire's expertise in gaming helps brands navigate an expanding landscape where gaming continues to capture more consumer attention. Through Gamer.ID and Gamer.Graph, marketers can better connect with gaming audiences through data-driven insights and targeting.
