Is Shopify Checkout Extensibility Breaking Your Tracking? Here’s How to Fix It
Shopify Checkout Extensibility is a game-changer for customization and checkout optimization. But there’s a catch—it can break your tracking. Many online shops experience missing conversions, broken event tracking, and unreliable attribution after upgrading.
In a world where accurate data fuels marketing success, losing valuable conversion insights can waste ad spend, reduce ROI, and weaken retargeting strategies.
Why Shopify Checkout Extensibility Can Disrupt Your Tracking
With the move from checkout.liquid to Shopify’s Checkout Extensibility framework, many existing tracking setups—especially those using Google Tag Manager, Facebook CAPI, and server-side tracking—may no longer function as expected.
Common issues include: ❌ Google Ads & Facebook conversions missing or reporting incorrectly. ❌ Retargeting audiences not building properly due to event tracking failures. ❌ Inaccurate revenue attribution impacting marketing optimization. ❌ GDPR compliance issues from broken consent-based tracking.
