Meta Pixel

See which Facebook and Instagram ads bring in sales

Connect your Meta Pixel to your store with an ID and a token. Svippit sends your purchases to Meta, even when the customer pays in the Vipps MobilePay app and comes back in a different browser, and asks your customers for permission first.

Why connect the Meta Pixel?

For many Svippit stores, Facebook and Instagram are the biggest source of visitors. If you spend money on ads there, the pixel is what tells you whether they work.

See what your ads actually sold

Purchases and revenue per campaign in Ads Manager, not just clicks and impressions. You know which ads deserve more budget and which ones to switch off.

Let Meta find your buyers

When Meta sees who buys, your ads can be optimised for sales instead of clicks. The more purchases Meta hears about, the better your ads target.

Reach people who looked but did not buy

Show ads to people who viewed a product or added something to their cart without finishing the purchase. Often the cheapest sales ad you can run.

Built for purchases that happen in the Vipps MobilePay app

A typical customer taps a link in Instagram, pays in the Vipps MobilePay app and comes back in Safari or Chrome. There the browser pixel no longer recognises them, so the purchase is lost. Svippit solves that from the server.

The purchase is sent from the server

With a Conversions API token, Svippit sends the purchase straight to Meta the moment the payment is confirmed, whichever browser the customer ends up in.

Never counted twice

The browser and the server send the purchase with the same ID, so Meta keeps only one. If a send fails, Svippit retries on its own.

Svippit checks that it works

Your settings show when Meta last accepted an event, and what Meta said if something went wrong. A test event shows up in Events Manager right away.

How to connect

It takes five minutes, and everything happens under Settings, Ad tracking. No code needed.

1

Copy your pixel ID

Open Meta Events Manager, go to Data sources and choose your pixel. Copy the dataset ID, 15 or 16 digits.

2

Create a token, recommended

Under Settings and Conversions API in Events Manager, choose Generate access token. The token is optional, but it is what catches the purchases made in the Vipps MobilePay app.

3

Paste and connect

Paste the ID and the token, tick the box confirming you are responsible for the tracking in your store, and press Connect. The token is stored encrypted and never shown again.

4

Send a test event

Paste the test code from the Test events tab in Events Manager and press Send. Meta’s answer appears right below the button.

Your customers decide

Svippit makes the cookie rules easy to follow, so you do not have to think about them.

Asks for permission, per store

The customer sees a banner naming your store and Meta, with Reject and Accept the same size. Nothing is sent to Meta until the customer has said yes in your store specifically.

No banner without a pixel

Stores without a pixel show no cookie banner at all. The pixel loads only on your store’s own pages, never in the dashboard or in other stores.

Only what is needed

Meta gets product IDs, quantities, amounts and currency, never product names or descriptions. Email and phone number are sent only hashed, and only on purchases by customers who said yes.

A privacy page included

Your store gets its own privacy page following the rules of its country, with a section on Meta as soon as the pixel is connected. Customers can change their answer from a link at the bottom of every page.

Good to know

Meta shows fewer purchases than Svippit

Customers who reject are not tracked, and not every purchase can be matched to an ad. Svippit’s numbers are always the right ones; Meta shows which ads contribute.

Health and wellness

If you sell anything in health, fitness or diet, Meta may restrict what the pixel can be used for. Svippit cannot change this. Check the data source alerts in Events Manager before you spend money on ads.

You are responsible for the tracking

Your store decides that Meta gets data, and you accept Meta’s Business Tools Terms. Svippit handles the consent, the privacy page and sending as little as possible.

Included, at no extra cost

The Meta Pixel is part of Svippit, with nothing added to the price. You only pay for the ads you run with Meta.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need the Conversions API token?⌄
No, but we recommend it. Without a token, Meta only sees purchases where the customer returns to the same browser after paying. With a token, the purchase is sent from the server, so Meta hears about far more of your sales.
Which events are sent to Meta?⌄
The five standard events: page view, view content, add to cart, initiate checkout and purchase. The standard names mean Ads Manager understands them without any setup.
Why does Meta say 3 sales when Svippit says 11?⌄
Customers who reject cookies are not tracked, and some purchases cannot be matched to an ad. That is normal. Use Meta to compare your ads with each other, and Svippit to see what you actually sold.
Can I paste in my own tracking script?⌄
No. Arbitrary script on svippit.com would be a security risk for every store and for the checkout. That is why Meta is built in as its own setting, with consent and privacy already handled.
What happens if the customer rejects?⌄
Then nothing is sent to Meta for that customer, from neither the browser nor the server. They shop exactly as before.
What happens if I disconnect?⌄
Your store stops sending events to Meta immediately, and the token is deleted. The banner disappears from your store. You can connect again whenever you like.
Does it work in Denmark and Finland?⌄
Yes. The banner and the privacy page follow the language and the rules of the country your store is registered in.
