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.
WooCommerce on its own
WooCommerce sees the order and, on recent versions, its source tag. It cannot see ad cost or the visits that did not buy.
Timing. WooCommerce writes each order when it is placed, and recent versions save the order's source and UTM values with it.
Access. The WooCommerce REST API with a read-only key.
