Meta Pixel integration automatically tracks funnel events to Facebook Events Manager, enabling better ad targeting and campaign optimization across Facebook and Instagram.

Features

  • Event Tracking: Automatic capture of purchase, registration, and engagement events
  • Conversions API: Server-side backup for browser events

Meta Pixel vs Conversions API

Understanding the difference between these two tracking methods is essential:
  • Meta Pixel creates user identity on your funnel and tracks events from the browser.
  • Conversions API receives events from FunnelFox servers and checks if these events were already sent from the browser.
Conversions API is an addition to Meta Pixel that we highly recommend for complete event coverage.

Why Use Conversions API

Conversions API provides essential backup for browser events that may not always be available: For example, if user purchases your product using PayPal in tab-less browsers (such as Facebook WebView), browser would not send Purchase event. This happens because purchase occurs on paypal.com side, while your funnel is closed and cannot receive updates. Conversions API steps in to fix this issue — FunnelFox servers receive PayPal transaction and send Purchase event using Conversions API. As a result — you don’t loose any events. FunnelFox ensures events from browser and server are properly deduplicated in Facebook Events Manager, resulting in accurate conversion tracking.
