WooCommerce Tracking Setup

WooCommerce gives you full control over your tracking — and full responsibility for getting it right. We set up GA4, Meta CAPI, Google Ads, and server-side tracking so every conversion is measured accurately.

Common WooCommerce Tracking Issues

Duplicate Purchase Events

Thank-you page refresh fires the purchase event again, double-counting revenue.

Add order meta flag or session check to prevent re-firing on page reload.

Plugin Conflicts

Multiple tracking plugins (MonsterInsights + PixelYourSite + GTM4WP) create duplicate events.

Use ONE data layer solution (GTM4WP recommended) and route all tags through GTM.

AJAX Add-to-Cart Not Tracked

Add to cart events don't fire when using AJAX carts or quick-add buttons.

Hook into WooCommerce's JS cart API events or use a data layer plugin that handles AJAX.

Checkout Page Events Missing

begin_checkout and add_payment_info events don't fire on custom checkout flows.

Implement data layer pushes via WooCommerce action hooks (woocommerce_before_checkout_form).

Server-Side Tracking Not Configured

Ad blockers prevent 20-40% of browser-side events from reaching ad platforms.

Implement Meta CAPI, Google Enhanced Conversions, or TikTok Events API via server-side hooks.

Consent Banner Blocking Events

Consent banner fires after tracking tags, or doesn't properly gate marketing tags.

Implement Consent Mode v2 with proper tag sequencing — consent initialization must fire first.
