Tracking Gokwik Checkout Events in CustomerLabs
Gokwik is a popular one-click checkout platform that helps improve eCommerce conversions, but many users face challenges with event tracking and data accuracy on Meta because,
- The top-funnel events (
Page view,View Content,Add to Cart) are triggered by Shopify’s tracking scripts - The bottom-funnel events (
Initiate Checkout,Add Payment Info, andPurchase) are triggered by Gokwik’s scripts.
This causes a break in user journey and thus the data feeding the ad platform’s algorithm is incomplete.
By leveraging CustomerLabs’ first-party data (1PD) platform, businesses can implement server-side tracking via Meta’s Conversions API, overcoming native tracking restrictions. This ensures more accurate event data, reduces data loss, and improves ad attribution and campaign optimization on Meta and Google Ads.
