Limitations

What to know before the project starts.

  • Platform, checkout, payment, and subscription flows can require custom development.
  • Analytics and finance systems use different processing and attribution rules, so exact parity is not promised.
  • Historical gaps or missing transaction details cannot always be reconstructed.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about this service.

Which ecommerce platforms can be measured?+

Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento, headless storefronts, and custom platforms can be supported. The approach depends on checkout architecture, dataLayer quality, consent, and available APIs.

Why do GA4 purchases differ from the ecommerce platform?+

Common causes include consent, blockers, duplicate events, missing transaction IDs, payment redirects, refunds, currencies, tax definitions, time zones, and reporting rules.

How are purchases and refunds tested safely?+

Test transactions, controlled environments, browser and network inspection, platform diagnostics, and order reconciliation are used. Production tests are planned and identified clearly.

Can product, promotion, checkout, and refund data all be included?+

Yes, where the storefront exposes dependable data. Item data, values, identifiers, and funnel continuity are selected around business decisions and then validated.
