WooCommerce Google Ads conversion tracking fix
WooCommerce Google Ads tracking failures usually sit between conversion-action setup, GTM firing rules, enhanced conversions, transaction IDs, order values, and payment gateway redirect behavior.
When this usually happens
Common triggers
- after creating or editing Google Ads conversion actions
- after GTM container changes
- after checkout plugin changes
- after enabling enhanced conversions
- after payment gateway changes
- after duplicate purchase reports appear
Common causes
What could be misconfigured
- conversion action is misconfigured
- GTM fires on the wrong condition
- enhanced conversions are missing or blocked
- transaction ID or order value is missing
- duplicate purchase conversions fire
- gateway redirects skip or repeat the thank-you path
Not always the plugin
When WooCommerce is probably not the root cause
WooCommerce may not be the root cause if Google Ads conversion actions, enhanced conversion settings, consent mode, or GTM publishing state are wrong outside the store template.
