Most causes of duplicate events are because you have more than one Facebook integration active on your site.Disable the Facebook & Instagram sales channel data sharing in Shopify and confirm no other Facebook pixel apps (or theme-injected pixels) are installed.

Prerequisites

Before you start, you need:
  • Owner or staff access to your Shopify admin with permission to edit sales channels
  • The Facebook & Instagram sales channel installed in Shopify (if it’s not installed, there’s nothing to disable)
  • A configured Meta destination in Upstack Data so the pixel keeps firing after you disable Shopify’s native integration — see How to configure the Meta Pixel destination
