Google Ads and Affiliate Tracking not working (Can't track sales) - TESTED - Google Ads working now - Affiliate tracking more complex

I tested with cheap $1 monthly subscriptions. Both Google ads and my Affiliate tracking software show a click from the codes in the global header (it might just be from the links, and the global header might not be working either); however, after the purchase, the codes in the confirmation page header did not fire for either.

Everything was set up correctly, so there is something wrong with the code injection on the backend.

The second time I tested, it looked like the codes tried to fire. I could see text at the top (the codes that you shouldn’t see appear) of the page, but I recorded no hits for the conversions.

Please allow us access to the backend to market our pickaxes more effectively or fix the code injection.

Currently, two powerful marketing methods are down for us without being able to track sales conversions:

  1. Being able to recruit Affiliates
  2. Paid Ads

Strangely, I didn’t change anything, but I tested more, and the Google Ads Tracking is firing for sales with the 100% discount coupons I created. I didn’t change anything, which is strange, but it works now!

I will work directly with the PickAxe team via email since getting the affiliate marketing codes to fire correctly is a bit more complex. @nathaniel , thanks for creating the video on Stripe discount codes customized to 100% off for testing.

I would share the link here, but it is set as an unlisted YouTube video. If you decide to make it public, I will post the link here so everyone can see how to create them.
