== Base code ==
Implementing the base code is not only required for you to be considered for special offers relating to the Barion
To install the Pixel, we highly recommend that you add the following code (referred to as the base code) between the

these efforts. This, as a legitimate interest case, is fully compliant with the GDPR, and must be implemented
independently of any consent management software that your site may use.
 
== Init ==
 
* User intent: View pages on your site
* To be implemented at: Every page load, in the document head tag
* Why do we need this: This provides very basic information on user sessions, and can be implemented very easily
 
To use the Pixel, you need to add the following code (referred to as the base code) between the opening and closing
<head> tags on every page of your site. Most developers add it to their website's persistent header, so that it appears
automatically on all loaded pages. Be sure to insert your unique Barion Pixel ID at both locations in the provided code
example.

When run, this code will make available a JavaScript function which you can then use for tracking. It also automatically
tracks a single PageView conversion by calling the tracking bp() function each time it loads. We recommend that you
leave this function call intact.


== Consent Events ==
== Heartbeat ==
Consent events determine which of the sent data could be used by us for marketing purposes. Two consent events can be
used to control user consent. The "grantConsent" event has to be sent when the visitor accepts the cookie policy
that expressly allows Barion to use data for marketing purposes. The "rejectConsent" event should be sent when the
customer rejects the cookie policy that includes Barion Pixel tracking. It should be noted that rejecting Barion
marketing consent does not mean that no data should be sent towards Barion, since Barion has a legitimate interest using
this data for fraud management. All consent events are tracked by calling the Pixel's bp('consent') function as shown
below.


'''Figure 2'''
* User intent: Browse your site
* To be implemented at: No further implementation needed beyond the init event
* Why do we need this: This provides information on time spent on your various pages


    <nowiki>
Heartbeat events are sent each minute from each page that the init event is implemented at, as long as the user does not
navigate away from the page or the session is not considered timed out. It can provide information about time spent
viewing each site by users.


        bp('consent', 'grantConsent');
        bp('consent', 'rejectConsent');

= Implementing Standard and Custom Events =
= Minimal implementation =
There are two ways to track conversions with the Pixel:
* standard events, which are visitor actions that we have defined and that you report by calling a Pixel function
* custom events, which are visitor actions that you have defined and that you report by calling a Pixel function


== Standard Events ==
To be considered for the special contract terms in connection with the implementation of the Barion Pixel's full
Standard events are predefined visitor actions that correspond to common conversion-related activities, such as
marketing capabilities, you have to implement the following events on your site. All events should be implemented in
searching for a product, viewing a product, or purchasing a product. Standard events require parameters, which must be
every location applicable, further detailed below. Events may require parameters, which must be included in the bp
included in the bp function call parameters as an object containing additional information about an event, such as
function call as a JS object. This contains additional information about an event, for example product IDs, categories,
product IDs, categories, and the number of products purchased. Some events have mandatory properties (see below). In
and the number of products purchased.
order to track an event, the code tracking the event needs to be added with its properties into your page JavaScript
either through a <script> tag or sourced JS files.


All standard events are tracked by calling the Pixel's bp('track') function, with the event name, and a JSON object as
its parameters.


'''Figure 3'''
== Consent (grantConsent, rejectConsent) ==


    <nowiki>
* User intent: Give or reject Barion Pixel consent
* To be implemented at: Inside your own consent management software
* Why do we need this: Participation of webshop clients is entirely consent based complying with the GDPR


    // contentView event tracking example
Consent events determine which of the sent data can be used by us for marketing purposes. Two consent events can be

used to control user consent. The "grantConsent" event has to be sent when the visitor accepts the cookie policy
        'id': 'promo01',
that expressly allows Barion to use data for marketing purposes. Sending this event must be handled by your own consent
        'contentType': 'Promotion',
management implementation that you are responsible for as outlined in our terms. The "rejectConsent" event should be
        'name': 'Winter tires 20% off',
sent when the customer rejects the cookie policy that includes Barion Pixel functionality. It should be noted that
    }
rejecting Barion marketing consent does not mean that no data should be sent towards Barion, as Barion has a legitimate
 
interest using this data for fraud management. Rejecting Barion consent however means that the data from that session
    bp('track', 'contentView', contentViewProperties);
will not be used for marketing purposes at all, despite receiving it. All consent events are sent by calling the Pixel's
consent function as shown below.


    </nowiki>
'''Consent event implementation example'''
 
Sometimes you may want to track this event when a specific button is clicked. This can be achieved as in the example
below (note that you may use technologies that require different syntax, like the below example using jQuery). Note that
the Pixel base code needs to be included in the page in order to be able to track events.
 
'''Figure 4'''


     <nowiki>
     <nowiki>
 
         bp('consent', 'grantConsent');
         // sample product data
         bp('consent', 'rejectConsent');
        var addToCartProperties = {
            'id': 'item001',
            'contentType': 'Page',
            'name': 'first',
            'ean': '9501101530003',
            'unitPrice': 1000,
            'totalItemPrice': 2000,
            'unit': 'kg',
            'currency': 'huf',
            'quantity': 2,
        }
 
        // tracking the event
         document.getElementById('addtocart_button').addEventListener('click', function() {
            bp('track', 'addToCart', addToCartProperties);
        });
 
     </nowiki>
     </nowiki>


Tracking the same event with jQuery:
    <nowiki>
        // sample product data
        var addToCartProperties = {
            'id': 'item001',
            'contentType': 'Page',
            'name': 'first',
            'ean': '9501101530003',
            'unitPrice': 1000,
            'totalItemPrice': 2000,
            'unit': 'kg',
            'currency': 'huf',
            'quantity': 2,
        }


        // tracking the event with jQuery
== Content View (contentView) ==
        $("#addtocart_button").click(function() {
            bp('track', 'addToCart', addToCartProperties);
        });


    </nowiki>
* Firing event: ''Page load'' of item pages minimally, preferably on all pages that refers to a single item, offer or promotion
* User intent: View the page that shows a single offer described exclusively
* Why do we need this: Offer descriptions help us know more about your offers


== Standard event descriptions ==
This event should be fired when one of your users enters a page that refers to one of your items that can be bought,
and describes it in general terms, with an offer to buy. This can be something like an offer page on an e-commerce
website or a product page on a retail site. It is important to not confuse this with a full product detail page where
the product itself is described in greater detail, but there is no information on price, shipping and other details that
are relevant to you offer, like in the case of a product manual.


With these standard events you can describe a lot of ecommerce related user actions in a meaningful way. Each event has
its own set of properties that is needed in order to fully understand and record the users' intentions.

== Custom events ==


Custom events may be defined, with arbitrary text data as parameters. One way to do so is to fire the customEvent event depicted in Figure 4. The event may hold up to 5 attributes: eventCategory, eventAction, eventProperty, eventLabel, eventValue. If You want to add custom properties to standard events You may do so by adding the “_” prefix to that particular event. This is denoted in Figure 5.

== Event Properties ==
Each event may hold a given set of parameters in order to describe a particular user action. In order to provide complete data some parameters are '''mandatory/required''' while some a '''optional'''. Properties are given to the event in a standard Javascript object with assigning each property (key) a value.
A value has a value type. Some are primitive types like '''text, integer''' and '''float''' types and there are two compound types '''item_list''' and the '''address''' a value type. Only compound types are enforced with validation, primitive types are converted during validation and message sending implicitly if the value type is different from the required value type. Text values are truncated to 1024 characters.




=== Standard properties ===
== Add to Cart (addToCart) ==


The table here shows all standard properties that are used throughout the tracking. Each property is context sensitive, which means only a handful of properties are needed in each event, and from those only some may be required.
* Firing event: ''Button click'' that results in a product to be selected for purchase
* User intent: Select product for purchase
* Why do we need this: Users demonstrate strong interest in your items by selecting them for purchase


The add to cart event is, as its name suggests, connected to a user "adding a product to their cart". Usually this means
that a user decide to purchase a product or service, and has added this item to their cart. Even if your website does
not use carts in the literal sense, there is a point in a user session where the given user decides that they intend to
purchase the product. This exact intent is what we want to capture here, so the button click which best matches the
point of this intent, such as one labeled 'Buy' or 'Reserve' should be the one to attach this event to.

== Initiate Checkout (initiateCheckout) ==
* Firing event: ''Button click'' that starts the checkout process
* User intent: Purchase the items in the cart
* Why do we need this: Users usually are put off by adverts of an item they already purchased, but can be receptive to related products
Usually on a webshop, there is a checkout process that starts with clicking a button with items in your cart. This
button click is the one that this event should be attached to. After this click, typically the user has to provide other
data, such as a shipping address and method, and confirm the purchase (which should fire the initiate purchase event).

== Events related to content browsing ==
== Initiate Purchase (initiatePurchase) ==


A portion of all events are related to browsing through a Your webshop’s content: viewing pages, promotions, clicking on products and product details, customization of products, etc. These are specifically: '''contentView, clickProduct, clickProductDetail, customizeProduct, clickPromo'''.
* Firing event: ''Button click'' that completes the checkout process
All properties may be used in each event, where You find YES in te corresnponding table the property usage is mandatory. Only 3 properties are overall mandatory, these are: '''id, contentType and name'''. Please note that for the contentType property, you are only able to choose from a number of predefined values: Page, Product, Article, Promotion, Banner and Misc. The following table shows the property requirements for these.
* User intent: Pay for the items in the cart
* Why do we need this: Users usually are put off by adverts of an item they already purchased, but can be receptive to related products


This event should be fired at the same time as the user is redirected to a payment solution's own website, for example
when the user is sent to the Barion Smart Gateway for payment. It should also be fired if the user chose a non-payment
checkout option, for example payment on receipt, but the transaction is considered complete. This should be the last
confirmation of the checkout process, after which the sale is considered to have taken place. Ideally after pressing
this button the user should reach either a 'payment pending' then a 'thank you' page, or simply the 'thank you' page.

== Click Product (clickProduct) ==
 
* User intent: View an item
* To be implemented at: Button click on a item
* Why do we need this: Users demonstrate interest in your items by clicking them
 
This event should be fired each time that a user selects any of your items. This could be for example on a product
selection page, a result on a search or filter page, an item on a promotion. The page type on which the button is on
should be specified in the 'list' property. In case of product bundles, you can use the 'contents' property to list each
item in the bundle, while the direct properties should refer to the bundle as a whole as an item.

Barion Pixel

The Barion Pixel is JavaScript code that allows you to track visitor activity on your website. It works by loading a JavaScript function which you can use whenever a site visitor takes an action that you want to track (this action is called an event).

In order to implement the Pixel, you will need:

  • access to your website's HTML code base
  • your Barion Pixel ID that you can access from your Barion Wallet

By default, the Pixel will track pages visited, and the devices your visitors use. In addition, you can use the Pixel's JavaScript function to track other events that are associated with webshop usage and e-commerce. Without collecting the consent of the website visitor you must still use the Barion Pixel on your website for fraud management purposes. (Tracking visitor behavior for the purposes of preventing fraud is considered a legitimate interest of Barion and the merchant in contract with Barion). The implementation of the base code is considered mandatory for using the Barion Smart Gateway.


Implementing the base code

Implementing the base code is not only required for you to be considered for special offers relating to the Barion Pixel, but also for using the Barion Smart Gateway at all. This is based on the fact that both Barion and you as the website owner have a legitimate interest in fraud management, and the data provided by the Barion Pixel greatly helps these efforts. This, as a legitimate interest case, is fully compliant with the GDPR, and must be implemented independently of any consent management software that your site may use.

Init

  • User intent: View pages on your site
  • To be implemented at: Every page load, in the document head tag
  • Why do we need this: This provides very basic information on user sessions, and can be implemented very easily

To use the Pixel, you need to add the following code (referred to as the base code) between the opening and closing <head> tags on every page of your site. Most developers add it to their website's persistent header, so that it appears automatically on all loaded pages. Be sure to insert your unique Barion Pixel ID at both locations in the provided code example.

Placing the code within your <head> tags reduces the chances of browsers or third-party code blocking the Pixel's execution. It also executes the code sooner, increasing the chance that your visitors are tracked before they leave your page. Sending the data happens asynchronously in the client's browser so that it does not affect user experience.

Implementation of the base code

   
        <script>
            (function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i['BarionAnalyticsObject']=r;i[r]=i[r]||function(){
            (i[r].q=i[r].q||[]).push(arguments)},i[r].l=1*new Date();a=s.createElement(o),
            m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.insertBefore(a,m)
            })(window, document, 'script', 'https://pixel.barion.com/bp.js', 'bp');

            // send page view event
            bp('init', 'addBarionPixelId', '[YOUR BARION PIXEL ID GOES HERE]');
        </script>

        <noscript>
            <img height="1" width="1" style="display:none" src="https://pixel.barion.com/a.gif?__ba_pixel_id=[YOUR BARION PIXEL ID GOES HERE]&ev=contentView&noscript=1"/>
        </noscript>
    


Heartbeat

  • User intent: Browse your site
  • To be implemented at: No further implementation needed beyond the init event
  • Why do we need this: This provides information on time spent on your various pages

Heartbeat events are sent each minute from each page that the init event is implemented at, as long as the user does not navigate away from the page or the session is not considered timed out. It can provide information about time spent viewing each site by users.


Minimal implementation

To be considered for the special contract terms in connection with the implementation of the Barion Pixel's full marketing capabilities, you have to implement the following events on your site. All events should be implemented in every location applicable, further detailed below. Events may require parameters, which must be included in the bp function call as a JS object. This contains additional information about an event, for example product IDs, categories, and the number of products purchased.


Consent (grantConsent, rejectConsent)

  • User intent: Give or reject Barion Pixel consent
  • To be implemented at: Inside your own consent management software
  • Why do we need this: Participation of webshop clients is entirely consent based complying with the GDPR

Consent events determine which of the sent data can be used by us for marketing purposes. Two consent events can be used to control user consent. The "grantConsent" event has to be sent when the visitor accepts the cookie policy that expressly allows Barion to use data for marketing purposes. Sending this event must be handled by your own consent management implementation that you are responsible for as outlined in our terms. The "rejectConsent" event should be sent when the customer rejects the cookie policy that includes Barion Pixel functionality. It should be noted that rejecting Barion marketing consent does not mean that no data should be sent towards Barion, as Barion has a legitimate interest using this data for fraud management. Rejecting Barion consent however means that the data from that session will not be used for marketing purposes at all, despite receiving it. All consent events are sent by calling the Pixel's consent function as shown below.

Consent event implementation example

   
        bp('consent', 'grantConsent');
        bp('consent', 'rejectConsent');
    


Content View (contentView)

  • Firing event: Page load of item pages minimally, preferably on all pages that refers to a single item, offer or promotion
  • User intent: View the page that shows a single offer described exclusively
  • Why do we need this: Offer descriptions help us know more about your offers

This event should be fired when one of your users enters a page that refers to one of your items that can be bought, and describes it in general terms, with an offer to buy. This can be something like an offer page on an e-commerce website or a product page on a retail site. It is important to not confuse this with a full product detail page where the product itself is described in greater detail, but there is no information on price, shipping and other details that are relevant to you offer, like in the case of a product manual.


Content view event properties

name required type description
contentType YES text If this is a product page as per minimal requirements, this value should be "Product". Otherwise select a value that best fits from these: Page/Product/Article/Promotion/Banner/Misc.
currency YES (in case of "Product") text (ISO 4217) The currency that the product price is provided in, preferably in the three letter ISO 4217 format (eg. HUF, EUR).
id YES text An unique ID that you have for the offer, this can be your ID for the product, an SKU or a promotion ID.
name YES text The full name that you have for the offer, for example a product name (eg. Red Bull 24pcs carton).
quantity YES (in case of "Product") float The quantity of the product offered as initially given on the page.
unit YES (in case of "Product") text The unit that your offer is measured in (eg. pieces, kg, m).
unitPrice YES (in case of "Product") float The price of one measurement of your offer in the given currency.
brand NO text The brand of the offer.
category NO text The subcategory branch (preferred, eg. 'clothes|shoes|winter', separate levels with '|') or single category (eg. 'winter shoes' or 'summer shoes') of the offer.
contents NO array An array of JS objects for detailing multiple items of the offer. For more details see the table below.
creative NO text The name or description of the promotion, for example a promotion picture filename or slogan.
customerValue NO float A metric that you define that measures the value of the action performed to your business.
ean NO text Contains the International Article Number (EAN) of the offer if available.
list NO text THe function of the loaded page from one of these possible values: HomePage/SearchPage/ProductPage/Recommendation/ComparisonPage/BasketPage/Checkout/Misc
position NO text The product's position in a list or collection (e.g. 2) or the position of the promotion on a page (e.g. banner_slot_1).
step NO integer If the page is displayed along the checkout process, the checkout step number that the page is displayed in, numbered from 0 as the checkout initiation.
variant NO text THe variant of the offer from the list of possible identical items (eg. the color of a phone or the time and venue of a concert or movie)

Add to Cart (addToCart)

  • Firing event: Button click that results in a product to be selected for purchase
  • User intent: Select product for purchase
  • Why do we need this: Users demonstrate strong interest in your items by selecting them for purchase

The add to cart event is, as its name suggests, connected to a user "adding a product to their cart". Usually this means that a user decide to purchase a product or service, and has added this item to their cart. Even if your website does not use carts in the literal sense, there is a point in a user session where the given user decides that they intend to purchase the product. This exact intent is what we want to capture here, so the button click which best matches the point of this intent, such as one labeled 'Buy' or 'Reserve' should be the one to attach this event to.

Initiate Checkout (initiateCheckout)

  • Firing event: Button click that starts the checkout process
  • User intent: Purchase the items in the cart
  • Why do we need this: Users usually are put off by adverts of an item they already purchased, but can be receptive to related products

Usually on a webshop, there is a checkout process that starts with clicking a button with items in your cart. This button click is the one that this event should be attached to. After this click, typically the user has to provide other data, such as a shipping address and method, and confirm the purchase (which should fire the initiate purchase event).

Initiate Purchase (initiatePurchase)

  • Firing event: Button click that completes the checkout process
  • User intent: Pay for the items in the cart
  • Why do we need this: Users usually are put off by adverts of an item they already purchased, but can be receptive to related products

This event should be fired at the same time as the user is redirected to a payment solution's own website, for example when the user is sent to the Barion Smart Gateway for payment. It should also be fired if the user chose a non-payment checkout option, for example payment on receipt, but the transaction is considered complete. This should be the last confirmation of the checkout process, after which the sale is considered to have taken place. Ideally after pressing this button the user should reach either a 'payment pending' then a 'thank you' page, or simply the 'thank you' page.
