Google Ads Conversion Tracking Doctor for Shopify

Report created Aug 3, 2026

The problem to investigate

An app that audits Google Ads conversion tracking setup inside Shopify and detects duplicate, missing, or misrouted purchase tags. It would help merchants understand whether Shopify’s Google & YouTube channel, GTM, GA4, or manual tags are causing conversion inflation or zero-conversion issues.

Merchants are confused by broken or duplicated Google Ads conversion tracking, especially when Shopify’s official Google channel, GTM, and manual tags conflict or fire on different endpoints.
