The Pixel runs as a Shopify extension in a sandboxed environment. Server-side forwarding settings include a consent gate; the merchant remains responsible for its legal configuration.

Explainable attribution

Change the model. Keep the same history.

Models are deterministic rules applied to the collected journey. Compare their readings without replacing the Pixel.

01

Last click

The last touchpoint receives the conversion credit.

02

Last non-direct click

The last known channel receives credit when the final visit is direct.

03

First click

The first observed touchpoint receives the credit.

04

Linear

Credit is split equally across all touchpoints.

05

Time decay

Interactions closer to the order receive more credit.

06

Position based

The first and last touchpoints receive more weight than the middle steps.

Coverage remains visible

Scaliente considers the channel reading actionable from 60% attributed revenue. Below that threshold, the interface flags partial coverage and keeps the interpretation cautious.

The Scaliente difference

The pixel does not stop at conversion.

A purchase event says that a sale happened. Scaliente connects it to the data needed to understand whether that sale actually created margin.

Direct answers

Shopify pixel: useful questions.

What is a Shopify attribution pixel?

It is an extension that listens to Shopify journey events, retains available campaign signals and connects them to orders so sales sources can be analysed.

Does the Scaliente Pixel replace Meta, Google or TikTok pixels?

No. It complements advertising integrations: Scaliente builds its own journey view and consolidates performance from the five supported platforms.

Does the Pixel slow down the store?

It runs as a Shopify Web Pixel extension in a sandboxed environment. Sending to the Scaliente collector is asynchronous and designed not to block the storefront.

When does the data become actionable?

Collection begins after installation and does not recreate the past. Scaliente displays coverage and considers the channel view actionable from 60% attributed revenue.

Which attribution models are available?

Last click, last non-direct click, first click, linear, time decay and position-based attribution.

Which advertising platforms are combined?

Meta, Google, TikTok, Pinterest and Snapchat are consolidated in Ads Insights. Available server-side forwarding is configured by platform.
