Reaktion vs. Popsixle

Server-side tracking, plus true profit.

Popsixle gives you fast, accurate server-side tracking, but it stops at ROAS. Reaktion matches the tracking, then goes further: true profit (POAS), returns, CLV and custom reports, with profit fed straight back to Google and Meta. Live in 10 minutes, built for ecommerce.

“Popsixle fixed our tracking, but we were still stuck optimizing on ROAS. Reaktion tracks just as well and then shows real profit, returns and CLV, and pushes POAS back to Google and Meta. We finally scale on margin, not revenue.”

Optimize for POAS, not ROAS

Popsixle stops at ROAS. Reaktion optimizes for real profit.

Clean tracking and ROAS tell you revenue, not what you actually keep. Reaktion factors COGS, shipping, payment fees, pick & pack, returns and refunds into every order, then feeds true profit (POAS) back to Google Ads and Meta so the algorithms scale margin, not vanity revenue.

✓ Calculates COGS, shipping, payment fees, pick & pack and returns per order
✓ Feeds true profit back to Google Ads and Meta with one-click setup
✓ Perfect for catalogs with very different product margins
✓ Improves real ROI on your marketing budget, not just reported ROAS
