Introduction

TrackBee automatically creates and maintains a Meta (Facebook) audience containing all your Shopify customers. This powerful feature enables you to leverage your existing customer data for advanced targeting, lookalike audiences, and campaign optimization within Meta's advertising platform.

How It Works

To enable this feature, head-over to your store overview and select the store you want to activate the feature for.
​
Scroll down to the active Meta connection (Requirement for this feature) and toggle on the "Meta Custom Audience Sync":


TrackBee will now automatically fetch all customers from your Shopify store and creates a Meta audience called "TrackBee - All Customers". This audience is continuously updated with new customers every 5-15 minutes, ensuring your Meta campaigns always have access to your latest customer data.

Using Your Customer Audience

Once the audience is ready in your Meta dashboard, you can use it in several ways:

Advantage+ Campaign management

You can select "TrackBee - All Customers" audience for Advantage+ campaigns underneath Audience Suggestions, helping improve targeting and campaign performance. Learn more

Important Notes

  • The initial sync may take several hours to complete, especially for stores with large customer databases

  • The audience will appear as "TrackBee - All Customers" in your Meta Ads Manager

  • New customers are automatically added every 5-15 minutes after the initial setup

  • The audience includes customers from the past 2 years to ensure comprehensive coverage
