Detailed Review
consentmanager AB, registered in Vasteras, sells a serious consent platform on pricing published by monthly page views rather than quoted per organisation. It is an IAB TCF registered CMP with A/B testing on banner variants, which is a genuinely useful feature nobody else here emphasises: consent rates differ substantially by wording and layout, and most companies never measure it.
The group relationship belongs in any comparison. consentmanager AB is a subsidiary of iubenda s.r.l., which itself sits under team.blue NV, so this and the entry at the top of this list are siblings rather than independent competitors. They are priced and sold separately and the products differ, but if you are shortlisting both as a way of comparing two vendors, you are not. The entity you contract with is Swedish; the group is Italian and Belgian.
What consentmanager does well
- IAB TCF registered with published, traffic-based pricing
- A/B testing on banner variants, which few competitors offer
- Free tier available
- Swedish entity, EU processing
Where consentmanager falls short
- A subsidiary of iubenda, so not an independent alternative to it
- Interface is functional rather than polished
- Support is thinner than the enterprise options
Standout feature. It measures the banner: A/B testing consent wording is the only honest way to find out what your acceptance rate could be.
