How it flows
How a Skio event reaches Reddit. Captured on the server, resolved to a person, then sent.
01 Capture
Captured from Skio
Capture Skio subscription events server-side, with the first charge distinguished from every renewal that follows it.

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

03 Activate
Delivered to Reddit
Forward resolved conversions to the Reddit Conversions API, so a platform where the click and the purchase are often days apart still gets credited.

Which events reach Reddit
Each Upstack event is mapped to the Reddit event below before it is sent.
| Upstack event | Sent to Reddit as | Key data on the event |
| Page view | PageVisit | URL, referrer, user agent |
| Product view | ViewContent | products, value, currency |
| Add to cart | AddToCart | products, value, currency |
| Checkout | InitiateCheckout (custom event server-side) | value, currency, itemCount |
| Purchase | Purchase | value, currency, transactionId, products |
Every event carries every available match key: hashed email and phone, external_id, the rdt_cid click ID, user agent and IP address. Personal data is hashed with SHA-256 before it leaves Upstack.
The catch
A first charge is an acquisition and a renewal is not, but both arrive as purchases.
Sending renewals as conversions is the single most common way a subscription brand teaches Meta to re-buy its existing subscribers.

Reddit Ads › Events Manager › Conversions API
Server events appear with a Conversions API source label, and the events table shows which parameters arrived.
What changes
What changes when Skio feeds Reddit. Two gains on the Reddit side, two on the Skio side.
Reddit
Server-side delivery
By default Upstack sends events to Reddit from its servers as well as through the Reddit tag, so an event an ad blocker or browser privacy setting stops in the browser still arrives from the server.
Reddit
Identity-resolved events
Events sent to Reddit carry the resolved customer whenever Upstack can identify one, matched against a 750M+ device graph.
Skio
Every event, server-side
Storefront and checkout events are captured from Skio on the server, independent of the browser.

FAQ
Questions about Skio and Reddit.
Will my events be counted twice if I run both the Pixel and CAPI?
No. Upstack sends a shared conversion_id on every server-side event, and Reddit deduplicates against the matching browser Pixel event. As long as the Pixel ID in Upstack matches the Pixel ID firing in your storefront, deduplication is automatic.
Which events does Reddit receive?
PageView as PageVisit, ViewContent as ViewContent, AddToCart as AddToCart, InitiateCheckout as InitiateCheckout (custom event server-side) and Purchase as Purchase.
Which customer parameters are sent to Reddit?
Every event carries every available match key: hashed email and phone, external_id, the rdt_cid click ID, user agent and IP address. Personal data is hashed with SHA-256 before it leaves Upstack.
