Google Ads quietly rolls out a new conversion metric

19 Nov 2025

Google’s new “Original Conversion Value” metric gives advertisers long-needed clarity by revealing the true, unadjusted revenue their campaigns generate.
A new column called “Original Conversion Value” has started appearing inside Google Ads, giving advertisers a long-requested way to see the true, unadjusted value of their conversions.

How it works. Google’s new formula strips everything back:

Conversion Value
– Rule Adjustments (value rules)
– Lifecycle Goal Adjustments (e.g., NCA bonuses)
= Original Conversion Value

For years, marketers have struggled to isolate real conversion value from Google’s layers of adjustments — including Conversion Value Rules and Lifecycle Goals (like New Customer Acquisition goals). Original Conversion value makes it easier to diagnose performance, compare data across campaigns, and spot when automated bidding is boosting value rather than actual conversions.

In short: clearer insights, cleaner ROAS, and more confident decision-making.
