What PPCmate creates for you
- A conversion tracker called Shopify · Paid orders. It counts next to your other trackers.
- Your campaigns' landing pages get the click ID added automatically, so a sale can be matched to the ad that brought the visitor.
What counts as a sale
- Paid orders from visitors who came from a PPCmate ad.
- The value is the products only, without tax and shipping. You can switch this to the order total under What counts as a sale in the app.
- Orders paid later (for example cash on delivery) count when they are marked as paid. To count them when they are placed, turn on Also count unpaid orders.
- Test orders, draft orders and gift card purchases are never counted.
- Amounts in other currencies are converted to your account currency.
Refunds
When you refund an order in full, PPCmate takes that sale out of your reports by itself.
Privacy
The app sends PPCmate only the order number, the amount, and the click reference from the ad. It never sends names, e-mails, phone numbers or addresses. The click is only remembered when your shop's cookie banner allows it.
Check it works
- In Shopify, the PPCmate page shows Last order from an ad and the last 7 days of orders, sales and refunds.
- In PPCmate, Connected Apps → Shopify shows Orders from ads today. Sales also appear in Reports and on your campaign list.
Disconnect
In PPCmate open Connected Apps → Shopify → Disconnect, or click Disconnect on the PPCmate page in Shopify. New orders stop being sent. Past conversions stay in your reports.
