Adding Adwords Conversion Tracking to Shopify

Login to Google Adwords and click on the 3dot menu in the top right corner and select Conversions under Measurement column.

Click on the big blue plus sign and select website as your tracking template.

Than do the following :

• Conversion name
  • enter any name
• Category
  • Purchase / Sale
• Value
  • Use different values for each conversion
• The rest can be as defaulted

Click on Create and continue

There are two parts, click on download snippet for both the Global site tag and Event snippet

Go back to Shopify and scroll down until you see Order Processing (from step 2), at the bottom of this section you will have a field where you can paste code which is labeled Additional Content and Script.

First past your Global site tag such as the example below (do not use this example, use your own downloaded code snippet)

<!-- Global site tag (gtag.js) - Google AdWords: 123456789123 -->
<script async src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=xx-123456789123"></script>
<script>
  window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || [];
  function gtag(){dataLayer.push(arguments);}
  gtag('js', new Date());

  gtag('config', 'xx-123456789123');
</script>

Than right after that we paste the event snippet, before we do this we need to edit the code. replace the following lines from your downloaded code snippet to the code example below :

• ‘send_to’: ‘xx-123456789123/lkadsjKDweLK45W’,
  • change this line with your snippet

Code Example (change the send_to to your code snippet)

{% if first_time_accessed %}
<script>
  gtag('event', 'conversion', {
      'send_to': 'xx-123456789123/lkadsjKDweLK45W',
      'value': {{ total_price | money_without_currency | remove:',' }},
      'currency': '{{ shop.currency }}',
      'transaction_id': '{{ order.order_number }}'
  });
</script>
{% endif %}

Scroll down until you see Order Processing, at the bottom of this section you will have a field where you can paste the code which is labeled Additional Content and Script. Here you can paste the below code.

Please edit the below code, by replacing the capitalized words listed below with your values supplied by Google Adwords, the values can be found following step 4 or step 4.1.

• CONVERSION_ID (twice)
• CONVERSION_LABEL (twice)

{% if first_time_accessed %}
<!-- Google Code for conversion Conversion Page -->
<script type="text/javascript">
/* <![CDATA[ */
var google_conversion_id = CONVERSION_ID;
if ({{ order.order_number }}) { var google_conversion_order_id = "{{ order.order_number }}"; }
var google_conversion_label = "CONVERSION_LABEL";
if ({{ subtotal_price }}) { var google_conversion_value = {{ total_price | money_without_currency }}; }
var google_conversion_currency = "{{ shop.currency }}";
var google_remarketing_only = false;
/* ]]> */
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="//www.googleadservices.com/pagead/conversion.js">
