Third-party apps that bypass Shopify checkout

Some third-party apps - e.g. cash on delivery (COD) apps, upsell apps, etc. - bypass Shopify’s standard checkout. As a result, Taboola pixel events are not fired.

In such cases, check if your third-party app provides an option to add event tracking for Taboola.

The instructions below illustrate the required steps for Releasit COD Form & Up. Use similar steps for other third-party apps that bypass Shopify’s standard checkout.
