Guide to enable tracking tags for Shopify Plus stores using Checkout Extensibility via Simprosys Google Shopping Feed

Shopify has rolled out the ‘checkout extensibility feature’ exclusively for Shopify Plus merchants. It provides merchants with more control and flexibility over the checkout process and can customize the checkout experience according to their preferences.

The checkout extensibility feature in Shopify enhances the checkout process, offering a faster and more secure experience compared to checkout.liquid. With this Shopify is aiming to boost conversion rates, decrease cart abandonments, and increase sales for e-commerce businesses.

Currently, our app's conversion tracking may not function properly with Shopify's Checkout Extensibility and may affect Google Ads conversion reporting. This is due to the restrictions imposed by Shopify for inserting any manual or automated tracking scripts on the checkout pages or the order confirmation page.

To surpass this restriction, we've created a custom tracking code to track all enabled tags from our app, including those for Google Ads, Facebook, Google Analytics, and Pinterest. 

This feature is currently in beta mode, but it’s very much available to be implemented using our app. 

To join, click on this link and enable the custom pixel option in our app. This will generate a script that needs to be inserted in the Customer Events settings in your Shopify store. 

Let’s take a look at the steps by following the screenshots below:

Step 1: Visit this link and click on Enable Custom Pixels from our app. image

Step 3: Open the Customer Events settings in your Shopify admin panel image
