Making your marketing efforts count! 


You are able to track registration source, conversion when inserting Google Analytics (GA) and Google Tag Manager (GTM) numbers in the backend of your event. 


Configure your GA and GTM

Google Tag Manager is a tag management system (TMS) that allows you to quickly and easily update measurement codes and related code fragments (aka tags) on your website or mobile app.

Google Analytics is designed for measurement. It collects both website and app data to better understand the customer journey, uses event-based data instead of session-based, includes privacy controls such as cookieless measurement, and behavioural and conversion modelling; and have direct integrations to media platforms help drive actions on your website or app.
