Facebook Pixel & Facebook Conversion API

What is Facebook Pixel?

In light of iOS 14 and the existence of intelligent tracking prevention (ITP) algorithms in Safari, Firefox, and Mozilla, Facebook is unable to track accurate data for iOS users. The issue can be resolved by capturing data directly from the server rather than the browser through the Conversion API or server-side tracking.

Through the Conversions API, advertisers are able to connect their marketing data with Meta systems that optimize ad targeting, reduce cost per action, and measure results. Direct integrations require establishing a connection between Meta and an advertiser’s server.

Difference between Facebook Pixel & Conversion API

You decide to launch a new marketing campaign and run some ads on social media or wherever you see fit. Excited, you sit back and wait for the traffic and ROI to start in. Many browsers today, such as Safari and Firefox, block data sharing through so-called intelligent tracking.

Using only traditional browser-based web analytics means you are unaware of how much traffic your site is receiving and what your visitors are doing once they are there.

Approximately 30-60% of tracking data is lost to Ad-Blockers, misconfiguration, and Intelligent Tracking Prevention (ITP), meaning that the information we rely on is at best unreliable.
