FAQ

1. Will the pixel work for shopping carts installed on my website?

Yes, the Facebook pixel will work on both hosted and modal-box shopping carts.

2. Do I need to install the Facebook pixel code on my website?

No, it is not required as we will automatically do this for you for the page where the shopping cart will be hosted. However, this process will only work on "plug" (button/widget/link) click and plug&paid checkout events, thus if you wish to track additional information from other sources it is advised to install the code manually on your website. The process is unaffected if you already have the code installed.
