Meta Pixel
Track Checkout conversions in Meta Business Suite using Fundraise Up’s integration with Meta Pixel.
The Meta Pixel is a snippet of JavaScript code that allows you to track visitor activity on your website. It works by loading a small library of functions which you can use whenever a site visitor takes an action (called an event) that you want to track (called a conversion). Tracked conversions appear in Meta Ads Manager where they can be used to measure the effectiveness of your ads, to define custom audiences for ad targeting, and to analyze that effectiveness of your website's conversion funnels.
By default, Fundraise Up sends Checkout events to the Meta Pixel if it is installed on your website. The settings for Meta Pixel are managed from the Marketing pixels page in the Dashboard.
