Setting up the UET tag

info

Microsoft Ads requires setting up a UET tag and a purchase conversion separately. You can skip this step, if you already have an active UET tag set up. We only need one active UET tag.

  1. Log into your Microsoft Advertising account.

  2. In the menu click > Tools > Conversion tracking > UET tag.

  3. Click > create UET tag.

  4. Give it some meaningful name like UET tag 1.

  5. Save it.

  6. In the next window Microsoft asks how you want to set up tagging. Choose Install the tag yourself.

  7. Then click next until the new tag shows up in the UET tag list.

  8. Copy and paste that UET tag IDinto the plugin.

Setting up the purchase conversion

We will set up a new purchase conversion goal, using a purchase event. It is different in the way, that we don't use a destination URL (like in most setup guides), but by using a purchase event. It is much less error-prone and works equally well.

  1. In the menu click > Tools > Conversion tracking > Conversion goals.
  2. Click > Create conversion goal.
