Description
Conversion Relay connects the plugins you already run to the analytics and
advertising platforms you report on, without a tag manager and without pasting
snippets into your theme.
Every tracked action becomes one normalized event that is routed to each platform
you enable. Server-side delivery is durable and retried in the background, so a
slow request never blocks checkout. Client-side pixels are fired reliably even
when a conversion finishes on a later page, such as a payment-gateway return.
Nothing is sent anywhere until you enable a destination and enter its credentials.

New sources and destinations register through simple filters, so the list grows
without touching the core.
Privacy
Advertising destinations default to denied until consent is granted. The plugin
honors Do Not Track and exposes a wpch_consent filter so a consent-management
platform can decide per event and category. Enhanced conversions (hashing and
sending first-party customer data) are opt-in and off by default.
External services
This plugin sends conversion data to third-party analytics and advertising
platforms. A platform is contacted only after you enable that destination and
enter its credentials on Settings Conversion Relay. No destination is enabled
by default, and disabling one stops all traffic to it.
For every enabled destination, each tracked conversion sends: the event name
(for example purchase, form submission, registration), the order or entity ID
used for deduplication, order value and currency, cart or line items where the
platform supports them, the page URL and referrer, a timestamp, the visitor’s IP
address and user agent, and any first-party click or analytics identifiers
present in cookies or the URL (_ga, _fbp, _fbc, gclid, wbraid,
gbraid).
If you switch on enhanced conversions (off by default), customer email, phone and
name are SHA-256 hashed before sending. Plain-text customer details are never
transmitted.
Google (Google Analytics 4, Google Ads, Google Tag Manager)
Events are sent to the GA4 Measurement Protocol at google-analytics.com from your
server, and the gtag.js or gtm.js script is loaded from googletagmanager.com

Webhook
If you enable the Webhook destination, the full normalized event is POSTed as
JSON to the URL you enter. You control that endpoint and the terms that apply to
it.
Fathom, Simple Analytics, Pirsch, Swetrix, Rybbit, Beam, TinyAnalytics,
GoSquared, Usermaven, UserBird, Wide Angle and Koko Analytics are fired through
the tracking script those services already install on your site. Conversion Relay
calls the script that is present in the page and opens no connection of its own.
Vireo Analytics is written to locally, with no external request.

FAQ
-
Does this need a tag manager?
-
No. Events are wired directly from your plugins to each platform.
-
Will server-side tracking slow down my checkout?
-
No. Server-side delivery runs in the background with retries, so the request that
completes a sale is never held up waiting on an analytics or ad platform. -
Where do delivery errors show up?
-
Settings Conversion Relay Status lists recent delivery attempts, including
failures and retries.wp conversion-hub statusshows the same from WP-CLI. -
Can I add a platform that isn’t listed?
-
Yes. Register your own source or destination with
wpch_register_source/
wpch_register_destination — no core changes needed.
