How ScaleUp implements Google Ads conversion tracking for Shopify stores using the Web Pixel API and Enhanced Conversions.

How It Works

ScaleUp uses Shopify's Web Pixel API to track customer events directly from your store. When a customer completes an action (like making a purchase), we send that conversion data to Google Ads with Enhanced Conversions enabled.

Shopify Web Pixel API

We use Shopify's official Web Pixel API, which provides reliable event tracking across all pages including checkout. This is the same API Shopify recommends for all tracking integrations.

Enhanced Conversions

Enhanced Conversions improve tracking accuracy by sending hashed customer data (email, phone, address) alongside conversion events. This helps Google match conversions even when cookies are blocked.
