Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Segment information Segment information
The Company reports segment information based on the management approach. The management approach designates the internal reporting used by management for making decisions and assessing performance as the source of the Company's reportable segments. The Company reports its results of operations through the following two segments: Retail Media and Performance Media.
Retail Media: This segment encompasses revenue generated from brands, agencies and retailers for the purchase and sale of retail media digital advertising inventory and audiences, and services.

Performance Media: This segment encompasses our targeting capabilities and supply and AdTech services.

The Company's chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), our Chief Executive Office ("CEO"), allocates resources to and assesses the performance of each operating segment using information about Contribution ex-TAC, which is Criteo's segment profitability measure and reflects our gross profit plus other costs of revenue.
The CODM only reviews revenues and corresponding TAC for each segment, and is not regularly provided any other expense nor financial information for our two segments.
The following table shows revenue by reportable segment:
