BigCommerce MGID

Send every BigCommerce event to MGID, server-side

Each event is resolved to a person against a 750M+ device graph before it reaches MGID, with restored click IDs, deduplicated conversions and delivery you can audit.

How it flows

How a BigCommerce event reaches MGID. Captured on the server, resolved to a person, then sent.

01 Capture

Captured from BigCommerce

Server-side capture of BigCommerce storefront and checkout events, resolved and forwarded downstream.

See the BigCommerce integration
BigCommerceWhat it sends
  • order_idBigCommerce order
  • email / phonecheckout contact
  • customer_idBigCommerce customer record
  • productscatalog items on the order
  • total_inc_taxorder value

02 Understand

Resolved to one person before it leaves

Every BigCommerce event is matched against a 750M+ device graph, so a phone browse and a desktop checkout resolve to one customer rather than two strangers.

How resolution works
Upstack DataResolved before it is sent
  • IdentityMatched against a 750M+ device graph, so a phone browse and a desktop checkout resolve to one customer.
  • customer_typeNew or returning, resolved before send.
  • DeduplicationBrowser and server copies of the same purchase collapse on event ID, so nothing is counted twice.
  • Bot and fraud filteringAutomated traffic never reaches the model, because what you keep out of the training set matters as much as what goes in.

Ad platforms accept almost anything and tell you very little. These controls exist so you can see what was sent and what was accepted, rather than inferring it from a reporting gap.

03 Activate

Delivered to MGID

Server-side conversions to MGID with hashed identifiers and restored click IDs, so a channel that is hard to attribute stops being invisible.

MGIDWhat it receives
  • hashed email / phoneidentity matching on arrival
  • mgid_click_idcredit the click that drove it
  • external_idstable person across sessions
  • event_iddedupe against the browser pixel
  • value / currencyvalue-based bidding

The catch

BigCommerce's hosted checkout limits what a browser tag can see at the moment of purchase, which is exactly the moment that matters for conversion tracking.

The postback log records each server-side conversion and the click it was matched to.

What changes

What changes when BigCommerce feeds MGID. Two gains on the MGID side, two on the BigCommerce side.

MGID

Server-side delivery

Events reach MGID through its server API rather than the browser, so ad blockers and ITP don’t cost you conversions.

MGID

Identity-resolved events

Events sent to MGID carry the resolved customer whenever Upstack can identify one, matched against a 750M+ device graph.

BigCommerce

Every event, server-side

Storefront and checkout events are captured from BigCommerce on the server, independent of the browser.
