Ad Tracking & Data

Browser privacy updates, Brave ad blockers, and Apple Safari ITP block traditional client-side JavaScript pixels from tracking up to 35% of purchases. This causes Meta's algorithm to underestimate campaign ROAS and increase your Cost Per Acquisition.

Server-Side Meta CAPI Architecture

Why Server-Side CAPI is Mandatory:

Server-side CAPI bypasses browser blockers by transmitting purchase, checkout, and add-to-cart events directly from Shopify's cloud server to Meta's servers with SHA-256 hashed customer emails and IP data, delivering Event Quality Match scores of 8.8 to 9.4/10.
