Getting Started

SweetCode Cloud is a server-side proxy for WooCommerce that offloads ad-platform tracking from your store server to Cloudflare’s edge network. Instead of your WooCommerce server making server-side API calls to Meta, TikTok, Pinterest, Snapchat, and Reddit on every page view, cart update, and purchase, those calls are routed through a first-party subdomain on your domain to Cloudflare Workers across 300+ global edge locations.

When is SweetCode needed?

Traditional browser-side pixels (like Meta Pixel or TikTok Pixel) run in the visitor’s browser and don’t affect your server at all. SweetCode Cloud becomes valuable when you enable server-side Conversion APIs — Meta Conversions API, TikTok Events API, Pinterest Conversions API, and others. Once enabled, your WooCommerce server has to make HTTP API calls to ad platforms on every event, consuming PHP workers, memory, and CPU. SweetCode takes over those server-side calls.

The result: faster page loads, lower server resource usage, improved tracking accuracy (bypassing ad blockers), and better customer privacy — all with a five-minute setup.

Prerequisites

• A WooCommerce store with admin access
• Pixel Manager for WooCommerce installed and configured with at least one server-side destination
• Access to your domain’s DNS settings (Cloudflare, Namecheap, GoDaddy, etc.)
• A SweetCode Cloud account

Quick Start

1. Create your account

Sign in at portal.sweetcode.cloud using your email address. You’ll receive a magic link — no password needed. Click the link to sign in and create your first organization.

2. Add your domain

Navigate to Domains in the sidebar and click Add Domain. Enter your WooCommerce store domain (e.g. yourshop.com). You can optionally customize the proxy subdomain — the default is ssp.

3. Configure DNS

Create a CNAME record for your proxy subdomain pointing to the SweetCode edge:

ssp.yourshop.com → ssp.sweetcode.cloud

In your DNS provider’s dashboard, add the following record:

Type	Name	Target	TTL
CNAME	ssp	ssp.sweetcode.cloud	Auto

Tip

See the Domain Setup guide for provider-specific DNS instructions.

After adding the record, return to your domain in the SweetCode Cloud dashboard and click Verify DNS. The status will update to Active once DNS propagates (usually 1–5 minutes).

4. Connect Pixel Manager for WooCommerce

In the SweetCode Cloud dashboard, go to Domains → [your domain] and copy your Sync Token. Then in your WooCommerce admin:

1. Navigate to Pixel Manager → Settings → Server-Side Events tab, then scroll to the Server-Side Proxy section (direct URL: /wp-admin/admin.php?page=pmw&section=sse)
2. Paste the token into the Sync Token field
3. Click Activate

Once activated, Pixel Manager for WooCommerce automatically syncs your configured destinations (Meta Conversions API, TikTok Events API, Pinterest Conversions API, Snapchat Conversions API, Reddit Conversions API) to SweetCode Cloud — no manual API key entry or sync button click needed.

Flush your caches

After saving, flush all server-side caches in your WooCommerce store — object cache, page cache, and any full-page caching plugin (e.g. WP Rocket, LiteSpeed Cache). This ensures the updated Pixel Manager configuration is output to the front end so the JavaScript library picks up the new SSP endpoint.

5. Verify events are flowing

Once DNS propagates and caches are cleared, tracking events are automatically routed through ssp.yourshop.com to your configured destinations. To confirm:

1. Go to the Events page in the dashboard
2. Switch to the Live tab — you should see events arriving in real time within a few seconds of activity on your store
3. Check that events show a success outcome for each destination

If events aren’t appearing, see the Troubleshooting guide for common issues.
