What each tool sees on its ownShow less

Google Ads on its own

Google Ads counts the conversions it can see through its own tag. It cannot tell a refunded sale from a kept one, or a junk lead from a good one.

Timing. Google Ads credits a conversion back to the date of the click, so yesterday's conversion count can still rise for days.

Access. The Google Ads API with read access to the account.

Mailchimp on its own

Mailchimp sees who received and clicked. It cannot see what the reader did after landing on the site.

Timing. Mailchimp reports opens and clicks per campaign. Apple Mail Privacy Protection inflates opens, so clicks are the steadier signal.

Access. The Mailchimp Marketing API with an OAuth connection.
