Adding Google Analytics to your Booking Engine

The iVvy Booking Engine has the ability to track your leads and opportunities through Google Tag Manager and Campaigns using Google’s UTM Tags and Campaign URL Builder.

To use Google Analytics on your booking engine, you will first need to create and setup a Google Analytics Account

During the setup of your account, you will be able to list all of the campaign sources used. For example, you may wish to add your Booking Engine URL to your Website, Social Media Platforms, and 3rd Party Affiliate Sites. Using the Google UA Code, you will be able to track where your customers launched the Booking Engine and track these campaign sources in iVvy.

Once you have setup your account, you will receive a GTM and UA code that will need to be added to your Booking Engine

1. Navigate to Global Settings > Venues > Booking Engines
