Integrate Google Ads Call Details Forwarding and CallTrackingMetrics

Get additional attribution data from your call ads in real-time and optimize your campaigns with our seamless, bi-directional Google Ads integration.

Take Google Call Ads Attribution to a New Level 

Confidently Make Marketing Decisions, Drive Revenue, and Prove ROI

You don’t have to miss out on valuable data when your prospects pick up the phone. Google uses call forwarding numbers to collect click-level attribution data from calls generated by call-only ads, call extensions, and location extensions. When you use CallTrackingMetrics and Google call details forwarding together, you will receive click-level attribution data in real-time when a call comes in from your Google ad. You can then use this detailed attribution about what generated the call, including campaign, ad group, and keyword, to:

  • Send qualified calls back to Google Ads as conversions for ad optimization through our Direct Connect integration
  • Record, transcribe, and route the calls based on customized triggers
  • View call data from all advertising sources (including Google Ads) in one, easy to navigate dashboard
  • Use call scoring and tags to add quality identifiers to every call
