Short answer
Match rate is the percentage of a brand's records, such as customer emails, that an ad platform, data onboarder or clean room partner can successfully match to its own users. Higher match rates mean larger usable audiences and more complete measurement. Data quality, identifier types and the partner's user base all affect it.
