Improve Ad Performance with ThoughtMetric’s Conversion API for Google and Meta

If you’re still relying on browser-based tracking to measure ad performance, you’re missing out. Between iOS 14, ad blockers, and the slow death of third-party cookies, your ad platforms are working with partial data. That means wasted spend and underperforming campaigns.

The solution? Server-side tracking using ThoughtMetric’s Conversion API (CAPI).


What is CAPI and why does it matter?


CAPI connects your store directly to platforms like Meta and Google. Instead of relying on browser pixels that can be blocked or distorted, events are sent straight from your server. The result is cleaner, more complete data and better campaign performance.

Here’s why every e-commerce brand should be paying attention:

  • It future-proofs your tracking
    As privacy regulations tighten and cookies disappear, CAPI helps keep your tracking accurate.

  • It helps ad platforms work smarter
    Meta and Google rely on conversion signals to optimize delivery. The better the data, the better the targeting.

  • It works around blockers and iOS limitations
    When pixels fail, server-side tracking keeps collecting the data that matters.
