Hello @misselvinl,

This is Gina from flareAI app helping Shopify merchants get $5Million+ in sales from Google Search, on autopilot.

I can definitely help you with setting up Google Ads, Google Analytics (with transaction tracking), Universal Analytics, and GA4 for your Shopify store. Here's a step-by-step guide to getting you started:

1. Google Ads Conversion Tracking Setup:

> Log in to your Google Ads account and go to "Tools & Settings" > "Conversions"
> Click on the "+ Conversion" button
> Choose the type of conversion you want to track (such as purchase, lead, or sign-up)
> Follow the prompts to set up the conversion tracking code
> In your Shopify store, go to "Online Store" > "Preferences"
> Paste the conversion tracking code in the "Additional scripts" field

2. Google Analytics Setup (with transaction tracking):

> Log in to your Google Analytics account and create a new property for your Shopify store

> In your Shopify store, go to "Online Store" > "Preferences"

> Paste the Google Analytics tracking ID in the "Google Analytics" field

> To enable transaction tracking, go to "Online Store" > "Themes" > "Actions" > "Edit code"

> Navigate to "Sections" > "header.liquid"

> Paste the following code just before the closing "</head>" tag:

{% if order %}

<script>
gtag('event', 'purchase', {
"transaction_id": "{{ order.order_number }}",
"value": "{{ order.total_price | money_without_currency }}",
"currency": "{{ shop.currency }}"
});
</script>
{% endif %}

2.1. Universal Analytics:

> Follow the above steps for Google Analytics setup (with transaction tracking)

> To enable Universal Analytics, add the following code just after the Google Analytics tracking ID:

ga('create', 'UA-XXXXXXXX-X', 'auto');
ga('send', 'pageview');

2.2. GA 4:

> Follow the above steps for Google Analytics setup (with transaction tracking)

> To enable GA4, add the following code just after the Google Analytics tracking ID:

gtag('config', 'GA4_MEASUREMENT_ID');

I hope this helps you set up your Google Ads, Google Analytics, Universal Analytics, and GA4 for your Shopify store.

Serious question… did you use ChatGPT to answer this? It’s hard to trust someone touting an app when their response is completely wrong.
