Setting up Google Ads with your MMP correctly can improve attribution accuracy by 15-25%. Most teams have this configured wrong. Here's the fix.

Getting It Right From Day One

SDK integration errors cause roughly 40% of attribution discrepancies in the first month. Taking the time to set up your MMP correctly — event taxonomy, deep linking, partner configurations — pays off massively in data quality down the line.

Essential Setup Checklist

  • ✓Define your event taxonomy before writing a single line of code
  • ✓Configure deep linking for both iOS (universal links) and Android (app links)
  • ✓Set up SKAdNetwork conversion value mapping
  • ✓Test attribution with a sandbox environment before going live
  • ✓Verify cost API connections for all major ad networks
