How it sells itself

Google Analytics 4 is powerful but painful to set up — code, Tag Manager, and numbers that never match your real sales. This app fixes that. Connect GA4 in one click (no code, no GTM) and every ecommerce event is tracked automatically: product views, cart, checkout, and purchases. Refunds are tracked too, so your GA4 revenue reconciles with Shopify.

zapEvent solves the complex, time-consuming problem of setting up a proper data layer for your store responsible for firing standard e-commerce events on appropriate triggers. Shopify’s native tracking setup can leave gaps, especially with checkout and evolving privacy restrictions. No coding. No custom scripts. No complex configuration. Just accurate tracking that works.

Key points
  • Browser side tracking for user interactions and heatmap data collection
  • Server side tracking. Never miss valuable eCommerce data due to browser blockers
  • Track all eCommerce events, orders and conversions automatically!
  • Google Ads tracking and multi-tag support with data layers for e-commerce events
  • Pre-built data layer ready for immediate implementation
  • Two-click setup process requiring no coding skills to install GTM!
  • Complete integration with Google Tag Manager
  • No programming knowledge required!
