Project Overview & Challenge

For CraveTheApp, a fast-growing Shopify store, relying solely on standard browser tracking caused missing conversion data due to ad blockers, iOS privacy updates, and browser cookie restrictions. To fix this, Zayed implemented a dual-container Google Tag Manager architecture paired with server-side Meta Conversions API (Stape.io) to ensure 100% accurate revenue and event attribution.

Step 1

Google Tag Manager Configuration

Initiated the project by setting up dedicated Google Tag Manager (GTM) accounts. Both web-side and server-side containers were configured to create a scalable, secure tracking infrastructure capable of handling high-volume e-commerce traffic.

Google Analytics 4 (GA4) & Server Setup

Following GTM setup, GA4 was fully integrated into the client's property. Server-side setup was executed via Stape.io to route data directly from the server, bypassing ad blockers and client-side browser limits.
