Why it matters

Meta Pixel is essential if you want to use Meta advertising. With this pixel, you can create remarketing audiences and set up conversions for your campaigns

Before you start

You can only do this once you have installed Google Tag Manager on your site. You should have also already set up a Meta Ads Account using Meta Business Suite following SOP 010 (web version)

  1. Log in to your Meta Business Suite.
  2. From the sidebar, click “All tools” “Events Manager”.

  7. Next, turn on automatic advanced matching. Click "Next".
  8. Next, you will be prompted to sign in to the Google Account you use for Google Tag Manager. Click "Allow".
  9. Click “Finish setup” after checking the account and container name. Otherwise, click on the drop-down arrow to choose the correct one.
  10. Next, since the Pixel base code is required for now, you just need to click “Next”.
  11. Finally, you’ll see a screen confirming that the setup is complete. Click "Finish".
