What’s new to Google Analytics and TeamUp
Prior to our integration, only our support team could enable the Google Analytics TeamUp integration. Now you can do it all on your own through your integration settings.
For a quick summary, using the Google Analytics integration you can track specific TeamUp customer site data. When your customer site is embedded into your website, Google Analytics views this as one website and tracks your TeamUp information as specific pages within your website. This is referred to as pageviews and events.
For example, when someone views your booking page that’s a page view, but if someone purchases a membership that’s an event.
Using Google Analytics to track your TeamUp traffic
When integrating with Google Analytics you can choose if you want to use Universal Analytics or Google Analytics 4 to connect. Once connected with your preferred technology you can start tracking events including:
- page views
- membership purchase initiated (sent on membership buy page)
- membership purchased
- customer joined provider (after signup or claiming an invite)
- (new) class/appointment drop-in purchases
- (new) course purchases (full course and course sessions)
- (new) store purchases
In Google Analytics you can create and set goals that you want to achieve based on those events. For example if you want a certain number of purchases.
💡Our support guides: GA-Universal Analytics: How to set up conversion goals and use events and GA-Google Analytics 4: How to set up conversion events give you a high-level breakdown of how to set up conversions and goals and use events with Universal Analytics and Google Analytics 4.
