How it flows
How a Phoenix Technologies event reaches Pinterest. Captured on the server, resolved to a person, then sent.

02 Understand
Resolved to one person before it leaves
Every Phoenix Technologies event is matched against a 750M+ device graph, so a phone browse and a desktop checkout resolve to one customer rather than two strangers.

The catch
Rebills look exactly like new orders to an ad platform.
Forwarding them as conversions teaches the algorithm to bid for customers you already have, and inflates acquisition performance by the entire recurring base.

What changes
What changes when Phoenix Technologies feeds Pinterest. Two gains on the Pinterest side, two on the Phoenix Technologies side.
Pinterest
Server-side delivery
By default Upstack sends events to Pinterest from its servers as well as through the Pinterest tag, so an event an ad blocker or browser privacy setting stops in the browser still arrives from the server.
Pinterest
Identity-resolved events
Events sent to Pinterest carry the resolved customer whenever Upstack can identify one, matched against a 750M+ device graph.
Phoenix Technologies
Every event, server-side
Storefront and checkout events are captured from Phoenix Technologies on the server, independent of the browser.

FAQ
Questions about Phoenix Technologies and Pinterest.
What’s the difference between the Pixel Tag ID and the Advertiser ID?
The Pixel Tag ID identifies a specific tracking pixel inside your Pinterest account, and the Advertiser ID identifies the ad account that owns it. Upstack needs both: the Pixel Tag ID to attribute events to the right pixel, and the Advertiser ID to send them on behalf of the right ad account.
Do I still need the Pinterest browser pixel?
Server-side delivery works on its own, but running both gives Pinterest the strongest signal. As long as the Pixel Tag ID matches between your browser pixel and the Upstack destination, Pinterest’s deduplication prevents double counting.
Which customer parameters are sent to Pinterest?
Events carry hashed email and phone plus the epik click ID when available.
How do I check that Phoenix Technologies events are reaching Pinterest?
