Conversion Tags¶
Conversion tags tell Orbital Audience when a visitor completed a valuable action.
Use them separately from the main tracking tag. The main tag measures navigation; the conversion tag marks a confirmed outcome.
Supported Conversion Events¶
Common event types:
| Event | When To Use |
|---|---|
purchase |
Completed ecommerce order. |
lead |
Lead form submitted successfully. |
signup |
Account registration completed. |
subscribe |
Newsletter or subscription confirmed. |
demo_request |
Demo or sales request sent. |
form_submit |
Generic form success. |
complete_registration |
Registration flow completed. |
conversion |
Generic conversion when no specific type applies. |
Where To Find The Tag¶
- Open Sites.
- Open the target site.
- Go to Tags > Conversion Snippets.
- Choose Purchase, Lead, or Signup.
- Enable optional fields when needed:
- Include site user ID for logged-in user identification.
- Include detailed product fields for ecommerce product/category analysis.
- Copy the generated snippet.
Where To Install It¶
Install the conversion tag only after the action is confirmed:
- Order confirmation page.
- Thank-you page after a form submit.
- Signup success page.
- Application callback that runs after backend confirmation.
Do not install the conversion tag on landing pages, product pages, form pages before submission, or button clicks that can fail validation.
What To Replace¶
The generated snippet includes sample values. Replace them before publishing:
| Field | Meaning |
|---|---|
event_name |
Conversion type, such as purchase, lead, or signup. |
site_user_id |
Optional advertiser-owned user ID. Do not send raw personal data. |
order_id |
Order, lead, or form identifier. |
value |
Monetary value when available. |
currency |
Currency code, such as BRL or USD. |
product_data.category |
Main product or lead category. |
items |
Purchased items for ecommerce analysis. |
Installing With GTM¶
Use a Custom HTML tag and trigger it on the success condition.
Examples:
| Scenario | Recommended Trigger |
|---|---|
| Purchase | Page URL contains /thank-you or dataLayer event equals purchase. |
| Lead | dataLayer event equals lead_submit_success. |
| Signup | Page URL equals the registration success route. |
When possible, prefer a dataLayer success event fired by the site after the backend confirms the action.
Why Conversion Tags Matter¶

- Converted visitor filters.
