13. We're going to create a new conversion. Select "Conversions on a website" and unselect the "Conversions from phone calls" if it's selected. For this campaign, we’re not tracking phone calls. Then we need to also click "Add URL" just under the checkbox.

20. Click here

21. Lets give the conversion a name.

22. And then we're going to use the same value since MangoMint doesn't have dynamic sales conversion tracking for capturing dynamic values. So I'm going to set the fixed value on the lower end.

Screenshot

23. For "Count" lets' select "Every" since we're tracking sales conversions. Then everything else can be left as default. Then click done.

Screenshot

24. Then lets click "Save and continue"

25. All right, let's select the Google Tag Manager option for setting up the tags.

26. And then let's copy the conversion id. Let's go back to Google Tag Manager.

28. Name your tag

29. We're going to select the Google Ads Conversion Tracking tag type.

30. Paste the conversion ID we copied from Google Ads.

31. Go back to Google Ads, copy the conversion label, and paste it here in Google Tag Manager.

32. For triggering, we're going to click the plus sign here to create a new trigger

Screenshot

33. Let's give the trigger a name, in this case, I'm gonna call it "thank you page".

Screenshot

34. Then for the trigger type we're going to select "Page View"

Screenshot

35. We want to fire this trigger when the page URL contains "thank-you". Then click the save button to save the trigger, and then save the tag.
