163 Comments / Shopify / By

An easy step by step guide on how to add Google Ads remarketing tag to Shopify using the latest features.

Step 1) Get Your Audience Source Tag ID

Login to Google Ads, then in the top right corner click on the 3dot menu and select Audience Manager from the Shared Library section

Google Ads Audience Manager

From the left hand menu, click on Audience Source

Depending if you have an existing setup or not choose option 1 or 2.

Option 1: Click on setup tag

Google Ads Setup Tag

Option 2: Or click on the 3dot menu and choose edit source within the Adwords tag section

Google Ads Audience Sources

Select the following

  • Dynamic Remarketing
    • Collect specific attributes or parameters to personalize ads
  • Business Type
    • Retail
Google Ads Tag Data Source

Click on Install the tag yourself

If you get a choice to choose the old or new one, click on the new one and copy the event code to a plain text editor. And copy the numeric source tag id as shown in the image below for later use. We will add the source tag id to the script below.

Google Ads Source Tag ID

Step 2) Adding The Tracking Code To theme.liquid

  • Login to your Shopify Admin Panel
  • Open up the theme editor by going to Online Store > Themes
  • Now choose Actions > Edit Code
Edit Shopify Theme

Click on theme.liquid inside the layout folder

Shopify Theme Liquid

From the code example below, edit the value between code settings start and end. Do not change anything else or you might break the functionality. I have highlighted below what you can edit.

Edit Remarketing Tag Options
  1. Copy the below code into a text editor and replace the fa_google_ads_audience_tag_id value to your audience tag id
  2. By default the code is set up for the US, if you targeting a different country, change the value of fa_product_id_alpha2_code to your target country alpha2. For example, the United Kingdom is GB. You can find the full list here: https://help.shopify.com/en/api/custom-storefronts/storefront-api/reference/enum/countrycode
  3. The following step requires you to check the product id in Google Merchant Center > Products > List. And see what ID you are using.
    1. If it looks like shopify_US_81191654332_1055121650148, then keep fa_product_id set to default
    2. If it looks like 1055121650148 then set the value fa_product_id to product_id
    3. If it looks like the main id 81191654332 then set the value fa_product_id to parent_id
    4. If it looks like a sku then set the value fa_product_id to sku

When you have updated the code settings, paste it in the theme.liqued file between the opening and closing head tag. <head></head>

    1. If it looks like shopify_US_81191654332_1055121650148, then keep fa_product_id set to default
    2. If it looks like 1055121650148 then set the value fa_product_id to product_id
    3. If it looks like the main id 81191654332 then set the value fa_product_id to parent_id
    4. If it looks like a sku then set the value fa_product_id to sku

When you completed the code paste it in the additional scripts settings and save.

Checking The Results

Currently as of writing, Google Tag Assistant does not check which values are added in the gtag remarketing code. So you will need to look at the source code, to confirm.

Important!
Google Tag Assistant will show a red label if you have an ad blocker installed on your browser. Disable or remove the ad blocker to see a blue icon.

You can check the results manually by right-clicking on the product landing page then choose view page source and search for FeedArmy (ctrl+f), then simply check the values that are added. You should see something like below.

<!-- Google Ads Remarketing Tag By FeedArmy START -->

  });
</script>
<!-- Google Ads Remarketing Tag By FeedArmy END -->

Creating Your Audience Lists

Some audience lists will be automatically created, so check what you already have.

After a few days, you can create website visitor audience lists using the data collected in the code above. To do this log in to Google Ads and from the top right corner, click on the wrench > Audience Manager > click on the blue plus sign and choose Website Visitor.

Google Ads Create Audience List

In the visited page section choose event from the drop down, then set the operator to equals and the value (in this example) view_item_list and click on Create Audience.

Here is a full list of event values

  • view_item_list
  • view_item
  • view_search_results
  • add_to_cart
  • index
  • purchase
  • other

You can also choose the rule for the following groups

  • event
  • google_business_vertical
  • id
  • value

Change Log

  • V2.16: Updated currency detection, suggested by Mmarcus15
  • V2.15: Added Canada to the auto-detect list
  • V2.14: Fixed variants not listing the correct price

Hello Mark, I can confirm that user id is an optional remarketing parameter, however this is not included in the coding due to it being PII. However if you have a value you like to use and you like me to implement this, please email me at [email protected]

Hello,

Why the EUR (Euro) currency is not set inside the code ?

Because it is not required. Euro values are comma delimited, not dot. Don’t confuse the listed currencies as a list of supported currencies.
The currencies listed in the code are to identify dot Currency, not comma.

The code will work for EU prices.

My catalog is {{ item.product_id }}{{ item.variant_id }} . So I have to remove the shopify{{ fa_product_id_alpha2_code}}_ on default section in both liquid and checkout scripts right ?

This code will not work in GTM as you need to change how it works, pretty much rewriting the whole code. If you installed it and it did not work, it most likely did not get installed correctly. You can request personal help by contacting me [email protected]

That is possible when the remarketing code is not correctly installed. Double check your product landing page that it is working by viewing the source code, check the item id, and the event. Hope this helps.

Hello Sergio, thank you for the kind words. If you want to setup a manual list, yes sure go ahead. Using manual setups allows you to fine tune your remarketing. However if the list becomes too small it tends to not work. So experiment and see how it goes.

This is mentioned in this article under, Checking The Results. Google Tag Manager has issues finding info on the page. So if you want to check if everything is correct. Use source code to view the data and compare.

That is no longer used. ecomm_prodid is an old parementer name. The new one is called itemid. So nothing needs to be fixed. If you like to learn more: https://support.google.com/…

With this point though, “Copy the below code into a text editor and replace the fa_google_ads_audience_tag_id value to your audience tag id”, I couldn’t find an audience tag id anywhere without creating a list. Is there a generic audience tag id associated with every individual Google Ads account, and where do I find it?

I see where the confusion is, please follow step 1 to get the audience tag id. This has nothing to do with audience lists. If you still continue to have issues, email me [email protected] as I also offer an installation service.

As far as I know, that does not exist. When you followed my guide, Google will automatically generate all retail audience lists. You can indeed also create your own audience lists. In this case you need to setup custom rules.

It looks like the product_id is just the top level product id. Is there are way to use the variant id? I believe in the older version of this code you had a available it was something like product.variants.first.id

That is correct Sergio, so when you already have a global tag, no need to install it again, just the rest of the code.

Hello, I’m using google shopping in conjunction with your given code will this interfere with my remarketing tag that you provide? Its detecting I have two gtags as will the remarting validation is stating “Some products are not valid” but when I check the code that you provide it is working.

1) Make sure that you have only one remarketing code installed as otherwise it will cause confusion and make inaccurate tracking. Remove any old installations.2) The remarketing code is designed for eCommerce to work with Google Ads, Campaign Audiences and Display Ads. So no conflict.3) When you install new code, you need to wait a few days for Google to catch up, it may take up to several weeks as Google does not check every page every day.Kind regards, Emmanuel.

Hi, I’ve done the application as you specified, but what could be the reason why the adwords panel counts as 2 times the conversions?

Remarketing and Conversion tracking are completely different things. I recommend you check your conversion tracking if it’s correctly installed. You can also follow this tutorial: https://feedarmy.com/kb/add…

Hi Emmanuel,I’ve streamlined some of this code here:https://github.com/Czarto/ShopifyScripts/blob/master/snippets/adwords-remarketing.liquidAs well as the code to include in the “Additional Checkout Scripts” settings here (including AdWords conversion tracking):https://github.com/Czarto/ShopifyScripts/blob/master/settings/checkout/adwords-conversion.liquidBoth of these allow you to specify your Google conversion Id at the top, and dynamically switches the product Id based on store currency (CAD, USD, and AUD for now, but simple to add more as needed)Best,Alex

Hey Emmanuel, many thanks for writing this. I followed everything to the T and have the following errors in my Google Ads Tag > Audience Sources (https://www.dropbox.com/s/j…. Are they to be ignored?Also, I accidentally clicked both Custom and Retail as business types and I can’t seem to go back and de-select Custom—do you know a way to rectify this?

Make sure you wait at least 30 days, as installing it and checking Google Ads instantly will not give Google enough time to update the list. Yes some pages will not have a product id, that is normal. I’m unsure if checking custom will have a negative effect, I recommend you contact Google directly.

You need to compare the data in the source code, to what is submitted to Google Merchant Center. If you need further support please email me [email protected]

Did shopify or google just change something? My google ads account is saying I have a few errors and got me stumbling across this article. Great info, but I wish it had a changelog at the top saying what you updated, on what day, and why it got updated. Like this:January 31st, 2019 – Change step 6 from this to that. – Why? Because google or shopify changed something on their end and didn’t tell anyone.Thanks!
