Connecting your Google ads account
Using the Google Ads connector found in Company Settings you are able to transfer data from Squeezely to your Google ads account. This guide covers how your data is transferred to Google and where to find it in your Google Ads Account.
What will happen when I install the Google Ads Connector?
- Tracker events your website sends to Squeezely, will be sent to the gtag associated with your Google Ads account.
- A conversion action will be added to your Google Ads Account under 'Conversions'. By default this conversion action will be excluded from your accounts reporting.
- Audiences exported to Google Ads from Audience builder will be synced to your Google Ads Account.
Setting up the connector
Go to Company Settings to install the Google Ads Channel connector.
To get started, click on 'Connect Google'. You will be redirected to a Google Login page. Login to the account you want to connect to Squeezely and press 'Next'. Accept the connection to Squeezely, and you will be redirected back to the Squeezely Platform.
Select your Adwords Account
Use the dropdown menu to find the Adwords account you want to link to Squeezely Platform. This is where we will export audiences and campaigns to.

This list will contain all the events you send to Squeezely, as well as the following events generated by Squeezely:

Squeezely Conversion in Google Ads
After connecting your Google Ads account to Squeezely, a conversion action will be added to your account. Go to 'Tools & Settings' > 'Measurement' > 'Conversions' to find it.
This Conversion action is based on the Purchase events Squeezely is receiving from your website. By default this conversion event will be set not to be included in "Conversions". This prevents it from being counted in your Google Ads campaign statistics. If you would like to include the conversions in your reports, go ahead and set include in "Conversions" to "Yes".
