How to add a Meta Pixel ID to your forms and checkouts in Flodesk

Edited

Overview

The Meta Pixel (formerly Facebook Pixel) is a small piece of code that helps you track activity on your forms and checkouts. It connects Flodesk with your Facebook Business dashboard so you can measure, optimize, and build audiences for your ads.

With Meta Pixel, you can:

  • See who viewed your form or checkout.

  • Track when someone subscribes through a form.

  • Track when someone completes a purchase through a checkout.

  • Use this data to run targeted Facebook and Instagram ads.

Important: Meta Pixel is only available on paid Flodesk plans. The feature is released in batches. If you don't see it in your account yet, check back soon.

How Meta Pixel works

  • Flodesk injects the Meta Pixel script tied to the ID you provide.

  • It tracks:

    • PageView events: when someone loads your form or checkout

    • Lead events: when someone submits your form

    • Join waitlist events: when someone joins a waitlist from your checkout

    • Purchase event: when someone makes a checkout purchase

This means you’ll know exactly which ads are driving signups or sales.
