Your GA4 and Meta Ads Manager will never show the same numbers. That's not a bug.
GA4 uses last-click attribution with a 30-day window. Meta uses view-through + click attribution with a 7-day default. They're measuring different things.
The real question isn't why don't they match
it's how big is the gap?
Under 20% difference = acceptable.
Over 40% = your tracking is broken.
Most Shopify brands I audit are sitting at 60–80% discrepancy. That's not attribution — that's missing data.

Most Shopify homepage banners are written like ads for the brand, not directions for the shopper.
"Elevate your every step" sounds nice. It doesn't tell a first-time visitor what you sell, who it's for, or where to tap.
Four quick fixes:
Say what you sell in plain words.
Name the button after where it goes. "Shop running shoes", not "Shop now".
Drop the auto-rotating slider. Lead with your strongest message.
On mobile, let a few best sellers peek above the fold.
None of these need a redesign. Most are a copy change and a section setting.

Impressions up 433% in six months is no small thing, and verifying it all through Search Console keeps the claim honest. The average position jump with rapid index expansion is interesting too. Was the growth driven more by new pages or by technical fixes on the existing ones?
