General Availability for EdgeTag

February 22, 2022

Launching EdgeTag

Facebook CAPI Advanced Matching lift for every growth engine!

Improve your Facebook event scores by 30% via EdgeTag Facebook CAPI, and get 25% ROI on your Facebook spend overnight.

Last December, we had announced the availability of a serverless tag system, eventually to replace Google Tag Manager, focused on the delivery of serverless Facebook CAPI pixels.

We worked with half a dozen customers, some small and some large (>20M pixel events a day), and the results were overwhelmingly positive (validated by Facebook Event scores).

Today, we are announcing the launch for any customer using Facebook as a marketing channel with the launch of EdgeTag, focused on sales and marketing activation signals, after a massive success with the first set of customers.

With this service any Facebook advertiser can now use the service to send a FB Serverless Conversion API (CAPI) using Javascript (like the client pixel) that has magic built in to automate advanced matching that drives ROI:

  1. Better Facebook event scores (see below) – 40-50% improvement.
  2. About 30% better ROI on your Facebook spend.

And YES, even if you have Facebook CAPI via your Shopify engine or any other provider, EdgeTag will improve 30% scores for Facebook Advanced Matching above those implementations by taking advanced matching to another level.

European Compliance laws (both Privacy Shield & GDPR) are built-in

Blotout EdgeTag will be zoned in Europe (Privacy Shield compliant), and does not process any data for a non consented user (GDPR compliant). Rest assured you can avail to the services and drive significant ROI without the complexities of Cloud and Server GTM.
