ThriveCart is a great Cart platform that allows you to set up a purchase funnel in almost no time.
With the Following guide you will be able to track purchases (as well as the single page views) generated by your ThriveCart funnels.
NOTE: Google Tag Manager
To deploy this solution we will need to use Google Tag Manager.
If you weren't already using it to install the Funnelytics script I suggest doing so as it will streamline all the operations.
ThriveCart allows users, at the end of their funnels, to either present a thank you page hosted on their platform or to redirect the end user somewhere else.
This solution will cover both cases independently of which ones you select for your funnels.
NOTE: CNAME
I always encourage any ThriveCart user to set a custom CNAME for their carts.
This simplifies the tracking operations across domains (if done using subdomains) and helps in creating a continuous journey in case there is traffic running directly to the checkout pages.
Some examples of good CNAME setup to streamline tracking are as follow (given my main site is hosted at mydomain.com)
checkout.mydomain.com
secure.mydomain.com
safe.mydomain.com
Step 1: Access your GTM Container
The first step is to access your GTM container at https://tagmanager.google.com.
If it is the first time for you using GTM follow this GUIDE
Step 2: Import the GTM Template
Download the ThriveCart tracking setup from HERE
Import the tracking setup in your container following this GUIDE
Step 3: Set Your GTM Container in Your ThriveCart Product
Log in ThriveCart
Go to Products
Find the product that you want to track and click Edit
Click on Checkout
Click on Tracking
Enable the Google Tag Manager checkbox
Paste(or Type) the GTM container ID in the input field
Click Next to save
NOTE: Purchase Redirect
If you are redirecting your users to a custom thank you page please ensure that the same GTM container you are using on ThriveCart renders there too.
Step 4: Verify Purchase Data in Funnelytics
Congratulations, you have successfully set up Funnelytics tracking for your ThriveCart purchases!
Now, all you need to do is make a test purchase on your website and check if the purchase data is getting populated in Funnelytics.
If you are not seeing the purchase data, make sure that your GTM container is properly set up and that the Funnelytics GTM Tracking setup is correctly imported.
