CustomerLabs + Reddit Ads Integration

Connect your Reddit Ads account with CustomerLabs 1PD OPS to automatically send user events and conversion data directly to Reddit via the Conversion API (CAPI) — all without writing any code.

Reddit Ads allows businesses to run campaigns, measure conversions, and optimize audience targeting.

By integrating Reddit with CustomerLabs, you can:

• Automatically track and send conversion events to Reddit
• Improve attribution accuracy using server-side tracking (CAPI)
• Build high-intent custom audiences for remarketing
• Maintain compliance with data privacy and Limited Data Use (LDU) policies

This guide walks you through the complete setup process step by step, ensuring seamless event tracking, accurate attribution, and improved ad performance.

Generate and Connect the Conversion API Token

The Conversion API Token allows CustomerLabs to send event data directly to Reddit’s Conversion API.

1. Log in to your Reddit Ads Manager.

2. From the left panel, go to Reddit Events Manager.

   

3. In the Reddit Events Manager, click Conversion API.

   

4. Provide a name for the API and click Generate Token to create a new API token.

   

5. Copy the generated token.

6. Return to the CustomerLabs Reddit Integration page.

7. Paste the token into the Conversion API Token field.

   

8. Click Save Configuration to establish the CAPI connection.

Caution

Ensure the correct token is used. Expired or invalid tokens can stop event syncing between Reddit and CustomerLabs.

Step 5. Map Event Fields (Advanced Settings)

Field mapping ensures that CustomerLabs sends the correct data parameters expected by Reddit.

1. In the Advanced Settings section, verify the field mappings.

2. Match your CustomerLabs event fields with Reddit’s event parameters.

   Tip

   Tip: If you have Email in CustomerLabs but Email ID in Reddit, map them manually to avoid event mismatches.

   

   Important

   Incorrect mappings can cause conversion errors or missing data in Reddit Ads Manager.

---

Step 6. Enable Enhanced Conversion Tracking

Enable Enhanced Conversion Tracking to improve event match rates and optimize performance.

1. Toggle Enhanced Conversion Tracking to ON in CustomerLabs.

2. This allows CustomerLabs to send hashed user data (email, phone, etc.) for better event matching.

   

   Tip

   Enhanced conversions help Reddit identify users who interacted with your ads but did not convert immediately.

---

Step 7. Configure Limited Data Use (LDU)

If your business operates in U.S. states where Limited Data Use (LDU) regulations apply:

1. Enable the LDU toggle in CustomerLabs.

2. This ensures your data sharing complies with Reddit’s and state privacy regulations.

   

   Important

   LDU compliance is mandatory in certain U.S. jurisdictions. Enabling this ensures that user data is processed with restricted usage where required.

---

Section 2: Sync Audiences

You can create first-party audience segments in CustomerLabs and sync these audiences with Reddit in just a few clicks.

Once synced, these audiences can be used for personalized retargeting ads on Reddit.

Tip

Refer to the Audience Creation Documentation to learn how to create an audience segment.

Section 3: Verification and Testing

Step 1. Verify Connection

After completing the setup:

1. Go to CustomerLabs Dashboard → Destinations → Reddit.

2. You can also check under Connected Destinations.

3. If the connection fails, re-authenticate or re-enter the Conversion API Token.

   

Step 2. Send a Test Event

1. Navigate to Events Manager in Reddit Ads.

2. Look for incoming events under your connected Pixel.

3. Trigger a test event from CustomerLabs (e.g., Purchase or AddToCart).

4. Confirm that it appears in Reddit’s event logs.

   Tip

   Event delivery may take a few minutes to appear in Reddit’s Events Manager.

Step 3. Monitor and Debug

If events do not appear in Reddit:

1. Check field mappings under Advanced Settings.

2. Ensure the Conversion API Token is valid.

3. Re-authenticate the Reddit connection if required.

   Important

   Misconfigured mappings or expired tokens are the most common causes for missing events.
