How to integrate NewsBreak App for Shopify

Overview

Welcome to our guide on enabling data sharing between Shopify and NewsBreak Ads! Follow these simple steps to successfully connect your data from Shopify to NewsBreak for accurate event attribution and performance tracking.

Note: If your storefront utilizes third-party site builders such as Funnelish, ClickFunnels, or other custom landing pages in addition to Shopify, you must also implement the NewsBreak Pixel on those external pages. Ensure that the click ID (nb_cid) captured on these pages is properly passed through to your Shopify checkout to maintain accurate attribution and end-to-end conversion tracking. Please go to Events --> Create/test Web Event, and select "Custom Pixel" or "Google Tag Manager" for more instruction to add a pixel to prelander pages.

1. In the Shopify App Store, search for “NewsBreak”.

• Note: The search may be case-sensitive, so please enter the exact app name.
• You can also add it directly: https://apps.shopify.com/newsbreak-advertising

2. Click Install
