You can integrate Bing Ads Conversion Tracking into your online store to help you understand more about customer behaviors and the traffic sources. Once it's added to your website, the UET Tag tracking code allows Microsoft Advertising to collect actions that people take so you can track conversions or target audiences with remarketing lists.

A. Get your Bing Ads Conversion Tracking
At the top of the screen, click Tools and choose UET tag.
Create one UET tag
Enter UET tag information and click Save
UET tag name should be in this format: Ads 1, Ads 2,... to avoid misunderstanding with tracking events.
At the top of the screen, click Tools > Conversion goals. Then, click Create conversion goal.
In Conversion goal, select Website and click Next.
In Conversion goal type:
Select Purchase in Goal Category.
Select Event in Goal Type.
Then, click Next.

UET Tag Helper for Chrome. Once installed, you will see the

this article.
D. Troubleshoot duplicated events
Along with the above method, you can track your customer behaviors by manually adding the UET Tag tracking script to Additional Script. However, if the two methods are applied simultaneously, each event will be sent more than once, leading to the data duplication.
To solve this problem, go to Preferences > Additional scripts and delete the UET Tag script added before.
E. Bing Ads Events
When an action happens on your online store after you've added a UET Tag in ShopBase, Bing Ads counts the action as an event. You can use event data to learn more about how customers interact with your store.
After you integrate a UET Tag with your online store, it automatically tracks 4 events, with their descriptions as follows:
VisitProductDetail: When a visitor views a product page.
AddToCart: When a visitor adds a product to the shopping cart.
StartCheckout: When a visitor clicks on the checkout button.
Purchase: When a visitor completes a purchase and views the thank you page in the checkout.
Conversion on Bing Ads is counted only when the conversion event comes from a user directly viewing and clicking on Bing Ads, whereas View-through conversion is only counted when the conversion event comes from a user viewing the Bing Ads on a visited website but not clicking on it.
