Google Ads are powerful for bringing new visitors to your business — but most campaigns stop tracking after the click. You might know your **Cost per Click (CPC)** or **Cost per Lead (CPL)** — yet still have no idea how many of those people actually **walk into your store**, **redeem an offer**, or **come back again**. With **Loyally Coupons**, you can track every step — from **ad click → coupon install → in-store redemption → loyalty conversion → repeat visits**. This guide explains how to connect your Google Ads campaigns with Loyally to measure **real-world conversions**, calculate your **Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC)**, and monitor **Return on Marketing Investment (ROMI)** and **Lifetime Value (LTV)**. * * * ## 🎯 Why Use Loyally Coupons with Google Ads Traditional Google Ads metrics only measure online actions. Loyally extends your analytics to real-world outcomes:

Clicks	✅ Visible in Google Ads	✅ Still visible
Leads	✅ Visible	✅ Still visible
Visits	❌ Unknown	✅ Tracked via redemptions
Customer Value (LTV)	❌ Hidden	✅ Calculated automatically
ROI (ROMI)	❌ Estimated	✅ Real, data-driven

Loyally bridges the gap between online ad performance and real-world customer behavior. * * * ## ⚙ How It Works ### Step 1. Create a Coupon Card 1. In your **Loyally Dashboard**, create a new **Coupon Card**. 2. Add a first-time offer, like _“Free coffee on your first visit”_ or _“$10 off your first order.”_ 3. This coupon will serve as the lead magnet in your Google Ads campaign. * * * ### Step 2. Add the Coupon Link to Your Google Ads Campaign 1. Copy your **Coupon Installation Link** from Loyally. 2. Paste it into your Google Ads ad or lead form as the **final URL** or **call-to-action link**. 3. When someone clicks your ad, they’re directed to your **Coupon Enrollment Page**, where they can instantly install the coupon into their **Apple Wallet** or **Google Wallet**. * * * ### Step 3. Customer Installs the Coupon Once installed, the coupon appears on the customer’s phone and the user is automatically added to your **Loyally CRM**. - You can send **automated push notifications** (e.g., reminders to redeem). - The customer becomes a **trackable lead** in your dashboard. * * * ### Step 4. Customer Redeems the Coupon When the customer visits your location and redeems the coupon, Loyally logs the transaction automatically. You now know exactly how many Google Ad leads **converted into paying customers**. * * * ### Step 5. Measure Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC) To calculate your true CAC: **CAC = Total Ad Spend ÷ Number of Redeemed Coupons** Example: If you spent $500 and 50 coupons were redeemed, your CAC = $10 per paying customer. * * * ### Step 6. Convert Coupon Holders into Loyalty Members After redemption, Loyally automatically converts the coupon into one of your regular loyalty cards — no manual work required. You can choose to convert into: - **Stamp Card** — “Buy 10, get 1 free.” - **Reward Card** — earn points per purchase. - **Cashback Card** — collect a percentage back. - **Discount Card** — ongoing offer or tiered discount. - **Membership Card** — subscription or tiered access. The customer instantly starts their retention journey with one pre-earned stamp or point from their first visit. * * * ### Process Overview Diagram ```javascript Google Ad → Customer Installs Coupon → Visits & Redeems → Coupon Converts to Loyalty Card → Repeat Visits → Data in Loyally Dashboard ``` * * * ## ☕ Example: Coffee Shop Campaign **Campaign Goal:** Drive new visitors through Google Ads using a free-coffee offer. **Setup:** 1. Create a coupon card offering _“Free coffee on your first visit.”_ 2. Run a local Google Ads campaign targeting users near your café. 3. Include the coupon’s installation link as your ad’s landing page. **Customer Flow:** 1. User clicks the ad → installs coupon → receives reminders. 2. Visits your café → redeems coupon → gets their free drink. 3. Coupon automatically converts to your **Stamp Card** with one stamp. **You can now track:** - Coupon installs (leads). - Coupon redemptions (paying customers). - CAC, ROMI, and LTV (repeat value). * * * ## 📊 Example Metrics Snapshot
