Google Analytics

← Tonic Functionality

Integrating Google Analytics with Tonic will allow you to track conversions made through the Tonic ticket widget on your website.

The widget coding, which will need to be added to the back-end of your website, can be found through the Ticket Widget tab of your event admin.

To help provide you with a deeper insight into your marketing efforts, cross-domain tracking will allow you to drill down the data to view the source of conversions (for example, Facebook, Instagram or 3rd party websites).

If you're having trouble getting the integration to work, please check out our Google Analytics FAQ guide here.
