Switch to Google Analytics 4

Google announced that on 1st of July 2023, universal analytics properties will stop processing data. Starting in March 2023, for continued website measurement, you should create a new Google Analytics 4 (GA4) property, or one will be created for you based on your original property and reusing existing site tags.

For existing sites that already use Google analytics, the creation of Google Analytics 4 property will not have impact on your current setting. Please refer to Google guidelines on how to configure the property for GA4.

To leverage full reporting capabilities from Google analytics 4 SECUTIX adapted the data layer being used on the ticket shop following official Google data layer guidelines.

You can enable the Google Analytics 4 data layer on your point of sale characteristics setting as seen on the image under "How to use Google Analytics 4 Enhanced E-commerce" section below.

Make sure to adapt and test your Google tag management settings. The list of events being provided by the new data layer if specified in the summary chapter below.

For more details on migration to GA4 please refer to official Google developer migration center.

GA Set Up - Not Supported

We only provide documentation and guidelines for setting up Google Analytics (GA). We do not offer direct support for GA implementation.

Data Layer

We provide documentation and guidelines, however, we do not support third-party tools outside of SecuTix control, such as Meta, Matomo, or other Tag Analytics tools.

Support for data layer implementation is available in specific cases:

a) Events triggered incorrectly with the correct setup.

b) Experiencing sudden errors without changing configurations (following our guidelines).

Google Analytics 4 E-commerce tracking

Product impression and action data

Expand

Impressions and clicks

On the landing page :
- Clusters & sections views: push all products' impression data (including all products in the List view, even if the "Load more" button has not been clicked.)
- For the carousel or slider sections, we push all products inside the slider, no matter when user clicks on an arrow to see the other products or not. Meaning that if the product is in the slider, it will considered as an impression.)
- Product type view: push all products belonging to the current Product Type selected (e.g push all products of the EVENT tab, when user clicks on the VISIT tab, and then pushing all VISIT tab products)
- On Landing page section view, sending data also depends on scroll depth. This means that the data will be pushed as the user scrolls the landing page.
- If a product card on the landing page is a Tour, we push the Tour id as the product Id.
- If a product card is a list of timeslots/performancse, we push its' product Id (Event Id or Visit pass Id).
Data are also sent after user clicks on a product/promotion, and in the product/promotion details page (page just before the shopping cart)
