Affiliate Referral sales interfering with Google Adwords Conversion Add-on?

[jaytech880]

Hello

I was wondering if Adwords sales that also includes an affiliate ID is interfering with the Adwords Conversion add-on

we are using eStore with Affiliate plugin

also using Google Adwords Conversion Add-on

also using Google Analytics eCommerce Add-on

Adwords ad links include affiliate id ‘adwords’ using {lpurl}?ap_id=tipsandtricks&c_id={keyword}_{device}

landing page result is [https://www.refluxguard.com/promo?ap_id=tipsandtricks&c_id=keyword_info_Here] (of-course i replaced ‘ adwords’ with ‘tipsandtricks’ here)

all seem to work fine

sales are recording in ‘Affiliate Sales Data’ =Good

transactions (with sales value) are recording in ‘Google analytics eCommerce’ =Good

But.. ‘Adwords Conversion Add-on’ is not reporting conversions.

i am confident i have set it up correctly (code and label) as i used to track adwords conversion tracking via GTM and worked fine (same label and conversion_id). i just wanted to try the add-on so ‘sales revenue’ is included. but the add-on doesn’t seems to send conversions.

any idea what is missing or does an affiliate sale void the adwords conversion add-on from firing the pixel??

The affiliate tracking and the e-commerce tracking are done even if the customer doesn’t return to the “Thank You” page. Those are done using the IPN (which is a background post).

The adwords conversion only works if the customer returns to the thank you page after the transaction. Because that one is done via JavaScript code which is executed in the browser when the customer lands on the thank you page after the transaction.

These days you don’t need that adwords conversion addon if you are using the e-commerce tracking. e-commerce tracking will put all the transaction data to your analytics account. Then connect your adwords account with your analytics account and you will get all the conversion data from there. Have you already linked your adwords and analytics account?

Yes I am aware that AdWords Add-on works via thankyou page pageview. they did return per all Analytics reporting (exit page, User Explorer / Client Id actions and so on).

Yes, AdWords & Analytic are linked as it should be.(both ways).

You are also correct that Analytic Transactions can be set as conversion in AdWords. great idea and I just did what you have suggested. Thank You.

However, Analytics grants credit to the last click (w/ Assisted Conversions report available) therefore I would like the ability to separately record conversions via Adwords pixel (for those who return to thank you page. it will not duplicate the conversions as I can set ‘Include in Conversions’ to ‘No’) in fact it can be very useful to have both Conversion sources in AdWords side by side.

Since I have already (just now) setup analytics transaction (goal import) to AdWords per your suggestion, this is no longer a blocker. though, would be nice to know why the add-on pixel didn’t fire.

Thank You for your Help

Hello again,

i was hoping to get a response.

Either get the ‘Google Adwords Conversion’ Add-on working.

Or, Please advise how to capture the conversion_value and add it to the adwords conversion code

var google_conversion_id = ID HERE;

var google_conversion_label = “DzAZCOTuxlsQ7-_labelHere”;

var google_conversion_value = 0.00;

Pleae help

We have action hooks that gets triggered in the eStore’s thank you page. You can use that to add your custom code (the conversion tracking code in this case). Also, you are free to customize the addon and do whatever you want.

If you are not a coder yourself then you will need to hire a developer who can modify the code according to how you need it for your project. You can also use the following option to get our developer to customize it for you:
