Shopify to Taboola

Forward every Shopify event to Taboola server-side, resolved to a person against a 750M+ device graph — with restored click IDs, deduplicated conversions and delivery you can audit.

What changes

What changes when Shopify feeds Taboola.

Server-side delivery

Events reach Taboola through its server API, not the browser — so ad blockers, ITP and consent banners don’t cost you conversions.

Identity-resolved events

Every event sent to Taboola carries a resolved customer, matched against a 750M+ device graph.

100% of conversions, server-side

Orders are captured from Shopify’s servers, so nothing is lost to ad blockers, ITP or a failed browser call.

Recognise returning customers

Shopify customer IDs, emails and phones are matched against the graph, so repeat buyers are identified across devices.

What actually moves

What Shopify carries, and what Taboola needs.

Shopify and Taboola describe a customer with different vocabularies. This is the mapping Upstack applies on the way through — the left column is what Shopify can put on an event, the right is what Taboola can actually use.

Shopify sends

order_id
Shopify order and checkout token
email / phone
customer contact from checkout
customer_id
Shopify customer record, if they have one
line_items
products, variants and quantities
total / subtotal / discount
order economics
customer_type
new or returning, resolved before send

Taboola receives

hashed email / phone
identity matching on arrival
taboola_click_id
credit the click that drove it
external_id
stable person across sessions
event_id
dedupe against the browser pixel
value / currency
value-based bidding

Delivery you can audit

How you know it is working.

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.

  • Per-event inspection

    Every conversion is inspectable from the moment it fires to the moment the platform confirms it.
  • Deduplication

    Browser and server copies of the same purchase collapse on event ID, so nothing is counted twice.
  • Bot and fraud filtering

    Automated traffic never reaches the model, because what you keep out of the training set matters as much as what goes in.

Where to check in Taboola

Taboola AdsTrackingConversions. The conversions view shows the source of each event, so server-side arrivals are distinguishable.
