How does Checkfront track conversions with Facebook Pixel?
By default, Checkfront sends a purchase event to Facebook Pixel on the booking receipt page. This is considered a conversion. You can create a custom tracking event in your Facebook Ads account if you need custom receipt URL tracking. -
When running a Facebook ad, can I tell which booking came from which ad campaign?
No, Checkfront does not send the booking ID to Facebook Ads.
-
Can multiple campaigns be tracked with a single Facebook pixel?
This may be possible by redirecting the Customer to a specific Checkfront /reserve URL that contains a query parameter of tid=campaign_name. Then, create custom events in Facebook Ads to track all page views with a URL that contains tid=campaign_name.
