conversion_report_time — Which day your conversions are counted on
Pinterest records two dates for each conversion: the day someone engaged with your ad, and the day they completed the purchase or sign-up. This setting decides which of the two days your conversions appear on in your daily reports.
Where to find it
Two options:
Time of ad action (Pinterest's default): the conversion is counted on the day the person clicked or viewed your ad. Best to judge each day's ads against their spend.
Time of conversion: the conversion is counted on the day the purchase or sign-up happened. Best to match your site's daily sales.
Example: a click on May 3, a €80 purchase on May 6. Time of ad action shows 1 conversion and €80 on May 3. Time of conversion shows them on May 6. Each conversion is counted once.
Left empty, Pinterest applies Time of ad action.
