Pixel Deduplication

Double-counting is a common issue in digital advertising. Konektor uses consistent event IDs to help advertising platforms identify the same event and reduce duplicate counting risk.

Why is Deduplication Important?

Without a proper deduplication system, a single customer conversion could be recorded multiple times if you are using multiple pixels. Example scenario without Konektor:

1. A customer clicks a Meta ad, then the next day clicks a Google ad.
2. When a purchase occurs, Meta claims the conversion, and Google also claims it.
3. Your dashboard shows 2 conversions, while in reality, there was only 1 customer.

This results in Inflated ROI (ROI that appears higher than it actually is) and poor budget decisions.

How Does Konektor Perform Deduplication?

Konektor uses the Event ID Matching method, standardized across all connected platforms.

1. Unique Event Identifier

Every Lead or transaction entering Konektor is assigned a permanent unique code (Lead ID / Unique Code). This code remains unchanged throughout the customer journey.

2. Cross-Platform Synchronization

When Konektor sends conversion data to Meta CAPI, Google Ads, TikTok, or LinkedIn, the system includes the same Event ID for the same occurrence.

Advertising platforms receive this ID and detect if they have previously received the same ID, thus they will not count it as a new conversion.

Benefits of Using Konektor

High Attribution Accuracy

Konektor helps advertising platforms understand which channel actually contributed last (Last-Click) or first (First-Click) without doubling the sales value.

Optimized Ad Algorithms

With clean data (no duplicates), Meta and Google Smart Bidding algorithms learn faster because they receive valid and honest success signals.

Ad Spend Savings

By avoiding fake conversion data, you won't waste budget on campaigns that aren't actually performing as well as they seem.

What is Deduplicated?

Konektor deduplicates almost all types of event tracking, including:

• Lead Events: Registrations or form submissions.
• Purchase/Sales Events: Product sales transactions.
• Custom Events: Specific events defined in your Conversion Settings.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

Do I need to manually set up deduplication?

No. Deduplication in Konektor runs automatically behind the scenes. As long as you connect your advertising platforms through the Konektor dashboard, the Event ID Matching system is immediately active.

What if I see data discrepancies between Meta and Google?

Data discrepancies are normal because each platform has a different "Attribution Window" (e.g., Meta 7 days, Google 30 days). However, Konektor ensures that the event ID sent remains consistent to minimize these gaps.
