# Meta conversion tracking for Next.js.

Send verified purchases from your Next.js backend and see what happened when Plainrouter delivered them to Meta. Keep event logic in your code, server credentials private, and delivery diagnostics in one place.

Node.js SDK + browser snippet

[Get started](/register) · [Read the Node.js setup](https://plainrouter.com/docs/guides/meta-capi/nodejs)

## From your workflow to Meta

- **Your website** — Collection domain and visitor consent
- **Your backend** — Verified purchase and stable event ID
- **Plainrouter** — Event receipt and delivery checks
- **Meta** — Eligible conversion delivery

One purchase, one sending path. A server SDK event does not also fire the browser Pixel.

## What Plainrouter adds

### Keep business events in your application

Send a purchase after your backend verifies payment. A refreshed success page should not become a second purchase.

### Separate browser and server responsibilities

Use the generated browser snippet for website collection. Keep the Signals Server secret and the Node.js SDK in server-side code.

### See more than an HTTP success

Inspect the event receipt and destination delivery separately. Acceptance by Plainrouter is not proof that Meta attributed a conversion.

## Is this a fit for your setup?

For teams that own their Next.js code, consent integration, and purchase lifecycle—and want managed Meta delivery with event-level diagnostics.

### When your existing setup is enough

If your checkout platform already sends the same events reliably, keep that integration until you have a specific reason to replace it. Add Plainrouter through a planned migration, not as a second sender.

## How Next.js conversion tracking works

### Connect collection and consent

Verify your collection domain and install the generated snippet in your shared layout. Pass the real visitor consent decision before advertising events.

### Choose the purchase owner

Use either your backend or the managed browser purchase flow. An independent signalq purchase call cannot reuse the event ID from the server SDK; do not run both for the same purchase.

### Send from server-side Node.js

Call the documented SDK from your verified payment handler or backend job. Keep the secret out of Client Components and NEXT_PUBLIC_ variables. Use the original event time and the same event ID on retries.

### Check navigation and delivery

Test a full load and client-side navigation separately. Signals arrival counting is per document load, not per route change. Confirm production event receipts, then inspect delivery to Meta.

## Next.js conversion tracking FAQ

### Is there a native Next.js integration?

This is a code-based integration using Plainrouter’s Node.js SDK and generated browser snippet. It does not require a dedicated Next.js plugin; your team owns the application wiring.

### Can a statically exported Next.js site send server conversions?

Its static frontend can load the browser snippet, but server conversions require a separate backend or job that can keep credentials private. The integration path described here uses server-side Node.js, not browser or Edge execution.

### Will every submitted event reach Meta?

No. Submission alone does not establish consent, a valid visitor join, or eligibility for advertising delivery. Preserve the documented website context and inspect warnings and delivery results.

## Connect your Next.js application.

Create a workspace, follow the Node.js setup guide and inspect your first eligible event. Keep browser collection and server purchase delivery under one clear owner.
