Kartra Platform

Kartra (the all-in-one marketing platform) lets you add tracking and custom scripts through the Custom Apps and page-level settings. This guide covers the two ways to install CookieScan.

Before you start

You will need:

1. An active CookieScan subscription (view plans)
2. Your banner installation code from the CookieScan dashboard (Cookie Banner → Install Code)
3. Admin access to your Kartra account

The install code looks like this:

<script src="https://banner.cookiescan.com/js?id=YOUR-COOKIESCAN-ID"></script>

Replace YOUR-COOKIESCAN-ID with the code from your dashboard.

Method 1: Custom Apps (recommended for site-wide installation)

Kartra's Custom Apps feature lets you add scripts to all your pages at once.

Step 1 – Open Custom Apps

1. Log into your Kartra admin
2. Click My Apps in the top navigation
3. Click Integrations (or My Account → Integrations)
4. Find Custom App and click + Add

Step 2 – Configure the Custom App

1. Name it CookieScan Banner
2. In Tracking Code (Header), paste your CookieScan script:

   <script src="https://banner.cookiescan.com/js?id=YOUR-COOKIESCAN-ID"></script>

3. Leave the Tracking Code (Footer) field empty
4. Click Save

Step 3 – Assign to your pages

1. Go to Pages
2. Edit each page (or use bulk edit)
3. In Page Settings → Integrations, enable your CookieScan Banner custom app
4. Save and publish

Tip: You can also enable the custom app at the domain level so it applies automatically to all pages on that domain.

Method 2: Add per-page via page settings

For individual landing pages or sales pages:

1. Open the page in the Kartra Page Builder
2. Click Settings (gear icon)
3. Go to Tracking & Analytics
4. In the Header Tracking Code field, paste your CookieScan script
5. Click Save and Publish

Method 3: Install via Google Tag Manager

If you already have GTM installed across your Kartra pages:

1. In CookieScan, open Cookie Banner → Install Code and switch to the Google Tag Manager Install tab
2. Copy your CookieScan ID
3. In GTM, go to Templates → Search Gallery and add the CookieScan template
4. Create a tag using the template, paste your ID
5. Trigger: Consent Initialization – All Pages
6. Submit and publish

Verify the installation

1. Visit one of your Kartra pages in a new incognito window
2. The CookieScan banner should appear
3. Open DevTools (F12) → Network tab → filter by cookiescan
4. Confirm banner.cookiescan.com loads

What happens next

• CookieScan scans your pages and detects all cookies (Kartra session, any marketing integrations, analytics, pixels)
• New cookies appear in Cookie Manager → Unclassified – categorise them
• Banner blocks non-essential cookies until user consents
• Every consent decision is logged in Consent Log

Troubleshooting

Banner not appearing on some pages

• Check that the Custom App is enabled on every page (or at domain level)
• Verify the script is in the Header field, not Footer
• Clear browser cache

Script added but banner never shows

• View page source (Ctrl+U) and search for cookiescan – confirm the script is present
• Kartra sometimes caches pages aggressively – try re-publishing the page

Checkout pages don't show banner

• Kartra's checkout pages may use a separate template
• Open the checkout in the Page Builder, add the script via Page Settings → Tracking & Analytics
