How to Disable Native ShareASale App Tracking in Shopify

If you are launching the ShareASale Server-Side tracking via Elevar then you must delete the Sharesale App from your Shopify Store to remove the native Pixel Tracking

📘

ShareASale does not allow you to separate use of the Catalog vs the Pixel in the app. You can either use another software for your ShareASale Feed Management like GoDataFeed or continue to use the native app for your ShareASale tracking.
