Tracking Pixel
Implementing the Visual UGC Tracking Pixel allows you to send important data relating to your conversion funnel to your Stack. The purpose of this code is to capture key data from orders made by end-users, and tie the data back to the Products, Tiles and Widgets implemented on your Ecommerce site.
Once implemented, Visual UGC will be able to provide valuable insights regarding conversion from UGC Widgets. Please contact your Visual UGC Account Manager for more details.
The Visual UGC Tracking Pixel allows for brands to track not only when an end User has completed a Financial Transaction (ie. Purchase / Donation), but also a series of other key events to help provide a more detailed and informed view around the impact of User Generated Content (UGC) on a brand's ecommerce platform.

The Visual UGC Tracking Pixel is a simple image embed that can be included on any pages where you pass Commerce events back to your Visual UGC instance.
<img src="https://stp.stack.la/record.png">
To build out and accurately track the events that occur on your ecommerce platform and pass it back to your Stack, you need to append the Pixel Event and Parameters to the Image embed similar to below:
<img src="https://stp.stack.la/record.png?product_id={{product_id}}&event={{event_name}}&ext_currency={{ext_currency}}&ext_quantity={{ext_quantity}}&ext_price={{ext_price}}">
These values should be automatically populated as the respective page loads to pass back to Visual UGC, similar to below:
<img src="https://stp.stack.la/record.png?product_id=1234,2345&event=purchase&ext_currency=USD&ext_quantity=1,3&ext_price=40.00,90.00">
Note: If the Tracking Pixel has not been abled on your Stack any events passed to the Tracking Pixel will not be stored.
Before embedding the Tracking Pixel on your website, please ensure that the service has been enabled on your Visual UGC Instance by contacting your Customer Success Account Manager, or by logging a ticket via Visual UGC Support.
