What This Means
Snapchat's ARPU of $28.41 per North American user is the headline number. But the actual value attached to your individual data is roughly the 20% slice — around $5.68/year. Age, device, and interest targeting can push that higher. For context, users aged 35-54 are typically worth 15-20% more, iOS users command 2-3x the CPMs of Android users, and luxury or finance interests can raise your value by 1.5-1.6x.
