Before setting this up, make sure to complete your [Meta Ads integration](https://knowledge.profitmetrics.io/how-to-connect-with-meta-and-conversion-booster-for-meta?hsLang=en). The relevant events will only become available for selection in Marketing Channels once the integration has been completed. The data shown in this dashboard is **reported directly by Meta** and is not de-duplicated across channels. This means that the same conversion may be counted on multiple platforms if a user interacts with ads on each. ### Part 1: Verify your setup To configure the Meta marketing channel, you should first verify which events are being used.   1. Inside ProfitMetrics, navigate to Integrations \> Connections \> Conversion Booster for Meta \> Meta events: ![](https://knowledge.profitmetrics.io/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Apr-09-2026-06-06-12-8848-AM.png?width=670&height=315&name=image-png-Apr-09-2026-06-06-12-8848-AM.png) 2. In the example above, standard events (Purchase, Complete Registration, Lead) are disabled, while the custom events are enabled, but your setup might be different. ### Part 2: Configure conversions for Meta Ads Now that you know which events are being used, it's time to configure them in the Marketing Channels. 1. In your **Dashboard**, scroll down to the Marketing Channels section. Select the **Meta Ads** tab and click **Configure conversions**. ![Marketing Channels - Meta - part 1 - Step 2](https://knowledge.profitmetrics.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Marketing%20Channels%20-%20Meta%20-%20part%201%20-%20Step%202.png?width=670&height=418&name=Marketing%20Channels%20-%20Meta%20-%20part%201%20-%20Step%202.png) 2. Click the **pencil icon** to edit conversions. ![Marketing Channels - Meta - part 1 - Step 3](https://knowledge.profitmetrics.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Marketing%20Channels%20-%20Meta%20-%20part%201%20-%20Step%203.png?width=670&height=376&name=Marketing%20Channels%20-%20Meta%20-%20part%201%20-%20Step%203.png) 1. For **Profit conversions**, choose the event in Meta where ProfitMetrics sends gross profit data. This will typically be the custom '**PM Gross Profit**' (*offsite\_conversion.fb\_pixel\_custom.PMGrossProfit*) event. *In legacy setups, it might be one of the standard events: 'Complete Registration', 'Lead', or 'Purchase'.* Search for and choose the correct event from the list: ![How to Configure Meta Conversion Booster in ProfitMetrics - Step 6-1](https://knowledge.profitmetrics.io/hs-fs/hubfs/How%20to%20Configure%20Meta%20Conversion%20Booster%20in%20ProfitMetrics%20-%20Step%206-1.jpeg?width=670&height=374&name=How%20to%20Configure%20Meta%20Conversion%20Booster%20in%20ProfitMetrics%20-%20Step%206-1.jpeg) 2. For **Revenue conversions**, choose the event in Meta that contains the revenue value. This will typically be the custom '**PM Revenue**' (*offsite\_conversion.fb\_pixel\_custom.PMRevenue)* event, depending on your setup.  *In legacy setups, this might be the standard 'Purchase' event.* ![Brave Browser Workflow - Step 1](https://knowledge.profitmetrics.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Brave%20Browser%20Workflow%20-%20Step%201.jpeg?width=670&height=374&name=Brave%20Browser%20Workflow%20-%20Step%201.jpeg) 3. For **CPA conversions**, choose the event you are currently using to optimise your ads. Depending on your setup, this could be the standard '**Purchase**' event, or a custom event. ![How to Access Meta Conversion Booster in ProfitMetrics - Step 2](https://knowledge.profitmetrics.io/hs-fs/hubfs/How%20to%20Access%20Meta%20Conversion%20Booster%20in%20ProfitMetrics%20-%20Step%202.jpeg?width=670&height=374&name=How%20to%20Access%20Meta%20Conversion%20Booster%20in%20ProfitMetrics%20-%20Step%202.jpeg) This determines how the Cost per Acquisition (CPA) is calculated in the dashboard — for example, if you optimise for the purchase event, the CPA shown will reflect the cost per purchase. 3.
