Checkout Champ - Google Ads Conversions

Send Checkout Champ funnel events to Google Ads Conversions

Q: Why does Upstack create a new conversion goal instead of using my existing one?

Pointing Upstack at your existing goal would mix its server-side conversions with whatever already fires into that goal (gtag, Shopify’s native tag, GTM), which makes deduplication and quality comparison impossible. A dedicated Upstack goal keeps the data clean.

Q: Why doesn’t Upstack support Enhanced Conversions directly?

Upstack already sends the hashed match keys Enhanced Conversions uses (email, phone, name, address) on every server-side event, so configuring Enhanced Conversions for web on the Upstack goal would not add data. The account-level setup is separate and still recommended: Google will not accept customer data over the API until the account has agreed to the customer data terms and turned on enhanced conversions for leads.

Q: Which customer parameters are sent to Google Ads Conversions?

Server-side conversions carry the gclid, gbraid or wbraid click ID plus email, phone, first and last name, city, state, zip and country, hashed with SHA-256. Google accepts the customer data only once enhanced conversions are switched on at the account level.

Q: How do I check that Checkout Champ events are reaching Google Ads Conversions?

Upstack marks the destination Healthy, and Goals, Conversions, Summary in Google Ads shows Purchase - Upstack (Server-side) as your only Primary purchase action. Place a test order and check that the conversion appears in Google Ads within 24 to 48 hours.

Q: How long does it take to connect Checkout Champ to Google Ads Conversions?

Most brands are live in under 20 minutes. Once Checkout Champ events reach Upstack, every destination receives the same resolved events, Google Ads Conversions included.

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

How it flows

How a Checkout Champ event reaches Google Ads Conversions. Captured on the funnel page, resolved to a person, then sent.

01 Capture

Captured from Checkout Champ

Track Checkout Champ funnels with the Upstack Pixel, from the first page to the completed order, and send each event to your destinations resolved against the same identity graph.

See the Checkout Champ integration

Checkout ChampWhat it sends

orderId / transactionIdthe completed Checkout Champ order

valuethe order value sent with the purchase

02 Understand

Resolved to one person before it leaves

Every Checkout Champ 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

Resolved 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.
DeduplicationThe browser tag and server-side conversions report to separate conversion actions, so keep one purchase action Primary and each order counts once.
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 Google Ads Conversions

Send identity-resolved conversions to Google Ads with more matched parameters, so Enhanced Conversions actually match.

The catch

Checkout Champ funnels don't run the Upstack app embed, so tracking has to be added to the funnel itself: the Upstack Pixel and event scripts go into Global Scripts and load in the head of every funnel page.

The purchase fires once per order ID and skips partial orders, so a reload doesn't send an order twice.

What changes

What changes when Checkout Champ feeds Google Ads Conversions. Two gains on the Google Ads Conversions side, two on the Checkout Champ side.

Google Ads Conversions

Enhanced Conversions that match

Email, phone, name and address hashed and attached whenever Upstack has them, so more conversions come back attributed.

Google Ads Conversions

Restored gclid

Click IDs recovered from the graph when the browser drops them, so paid search keeps its attribution.

Checkout Champ

Every funnel step tracked

Page views, checkout starts, add-to-carts, shipping and payment steps and completed orders fire from the funnel, so your platforms see the whole path rather than the landing page alone.
