What is a conversion event?

Last updated: 16 July 2026

A conversion event is a signal Stravax Engage sends to a connected ad platform when a lead in your CRM is created, marked qualified, or converted. Qualified means a real prospect; converted means a paying customer with a recorded deal value and currency. Each event sends once per lead, per stage, per platform.

What triggers a conversion event?

A conversion event can fire at three points in a lead's life: when it's created, when its stage changes to qualified, and when its stage changes to converted. A new lead's creation event fires whether it came from a click-to-WhatsApp ad, a tracked link, a web form, an ad platform's own lead form, or was added manually, as long as the connection you're sending to covers that stage. You don't send anything manually: creating a lead or moving its stage is what triggers the signal to every ad platform you've connected. If you haven't connected a platform, no event is sent to it. Leads marked as test data are excluded from your conversion reports and usage counts; avoid moving a test lead into qualified or converted while a platform is connected, since a stage change is what fires the signal.

What's the difference between a new lead, a qualified event and a converted event?

Event What it tells the ad platform
New lead created A prospect came from this ad or link, useful for platforms still optimizing toward lead volume.
Qualified A real, engaged prospect came from this ad, useful for platforms optimizing toward lead quality rather than raw volume.
Converted The deal's value and currency, so the platform can optimize toward customers who actually spend, not just the ones who reply.

Is there a limit to how many conversion events I can send?

Yes. Each current plan includes conversion events up to a hard monthly ceiling. On these plans, reaching the ceiling doesn't produce a surprise charge: sending simply pauses until the next billing cycle, or until you upgrade to a plan with a higher ceiling. Your current usage against the ceiling, and the upgrade path, are visible in Billing. See app.stravax.ai/pricing for current plan details.

Does a duplicate stage change send a duplicate event?

No. Each lead, stage and platform combination is deduplicated, so moving a lead back and forth, or a retried delivery, never produces two events for the same outcome.
