Tracking eCommerce events via Google Tag Manager and DataLayer makes adding new growth channels a straighforward task. Regardless of a number of connected platforms the data quality and events coverage stays the same.
This plugin, once activated, starts pushing standard GA4 eCommerce events into GTM DataLayer. Once the data is there you can leverage powerful GTM integrations to connect virtually any analytics or marketing platform or tool, even if you’re undecided on your choice.
To speed up the process, our plugin offers pre-packaged integrations for GA4 and Facebook Pixel. You can be up and running in minutes, bypassing the need for extensive GTM configuration. See how it works here:

Using GTM and dataLayer allows to build more complex scenarios, such as only processing the data after obtaining user consent. Other plugin directly pipe events into target system no matter if required permission was given or not.
