Server-side tracking for ClickFunnels 2.0

The right server-side source on ClickFunnels is the payment processor, not ClickFunnels itself. One event per charge, keyed on the transaction ID, sent from the processor's webhook. That's immune to declined upsells still loading a page and to customers who refresh anything.

ClickFunnels 2.0 server-side · what breaks

What goes wrong on ClickFunnels 2.0

  1. 01

    Upsell revenue missing or front end double-counted

    Depending on where the purchase tag was placed.

  2. 02

    Declines still load a page

    A customer who declines the upsell still sees the downsell page, and a page-based tag counts the refusal.

  3. 03

    Downsell branches never walked

    Built and never tested, so nobody notices they fire nothing.

  4. 04

    Average order value meaningless

    Because charges and events don't correspond.

ClickFunnels 2.0 server-side · the fix

What changes — ClickFunnels 2.0 server-side

  • One event per charge

    Front end, bump, upsell, downsell.

  • Declines counting nothing

    Because the event is bound to a charge, not a page.

  • Real average order value

    Charges and events finally corresponding.

What ClickFunnels 2.0 exposes to a server container

Source from the processor and the funnel's branching stops mattering.

  1. 1

    Events from the payment processor's webhook

    One per charge, regardless of which pages loaded.

  2. 2

    Transaction ID as the deduplication key

    Not the funnel step.

  3. 3

    Every branch mapped before building

    Accept, decline, downsell, bump.

  4. 4

    Refunds from the processor

    Which ClickFunnels itself won't tell you about.

  5. 5

    Click IDs captured at the opt-in

    And carried to the processor's metadata where supported.

ClickFunnels 2.0 server-side · diagnose

Where ClickFunnels 2.0 tracking breaks, in diagnostic order

Each check rules out a class of cause, so by the last one there is usually a single explanation standing.

  1. 01

    Compare processor charges to platform purchases

    Charges, not orders.

  2. 02

    Map every branch on paper

    Accept, decline, downsell, bump.

  3. 03

    Walk each branch with a real transaction

    Including the decline.

  4. 04

    Check which steps have purchase code pasted

    Usually more than one.

  5. 05

    Look for repeated transaction IDs

    Proof of double counting.

ClickFunnels 2.0 server-side · when not to buy

When you don't need this on ClickFunnels 2.0

Worth reading before you buy anything, from us or anyone.

  • If your funnel is a single product with no bumps or upsells, one charge equals one order and none of this complexity applies.
  • If your processor charges and platform purchases already reconcile, the multi-charge problem isn't affecting you.
  • Removing the purchase tag from upsell pages is a five-minute change that fixes most of this. Do that before buying anything.
  • The decline-path test costs nothing and finds the most embarrassing bugs. Run it yourself.
