Browser Commerce events
Product views, cart changes, checkout steps, and purchase signals describe shopping behavior after your storefront integration sends them. Browser data never creates verified orders, revenue, payments, or refunds.
Commerce analytics
Ecommerce analytics software for stores
Ecommerce analytics software should connect what shoppers do in the browser with authenticated order facts from your store, without treating a page path as money. Hitsteps Commerce pairs shopping behavior with a verified store provider when your plan and setup allow it.

Two connected sources, one Commerce view
Ecommerce tracking in Hitsteps uses two lanes. Ordinary pageviews alone do not reveal products, carts, checkout steps, or orders.
Verified order provider
Authenticated order facts come from Shopify, WooCommerce, your own store server, or another verified billing system. Provider facts remain the authoritative financial lane. Currencies stay separate and are never converted implicitly.
Cart and checkout analytics you can review
Open Commerce from your website dashboard when collection is enabled and coverage exists.
Overview and Orders
Review Commerce activity and verified provider orders, payments, and refunds.
Products and Cart & Checkout
Review product performance and cart and checkout analytics from recorded shopping journeys.
Acquisition and Customers
Review available order-time acquisition context. Orders without a linked visitor still count and remain unlinked; Hitsteps does not guess who a buyer was.
Data Quality & Setup
Check connection and coverage health. Partial coverage shows notices and status instead of hiding the dashboard.
Verify Data Quality & Setup and one new order plus refund before relying on reports. Explore real-time visitor tracking.

WooCommerce analytics
Use a Commerce-capable official Hitsteps WordPress plugin path with provisioned Commerce credentials. Confirm the published plugin version and Data Quality status for your site before treating orders as covered.
Custom storefronts
Call browser Commerce methods after the normal Hitsteps tracker loads. Keep product, variant, SKU, cart, checkout, and journey references stable. Ask Hitsteps to provision site-scoped credentials for verified server collection. Plugins and install options · Contact support.
Forward-only collection and coverage
Each lane starts forward-only from its verified coverage date. Enabling collection never imports older orders. Disabling collection creates a visible gap; re-enabling starts a new coverage period and does not fill missed activity.
After activation, place a new test order and issue a refund. Confirm the order, items, payment state, refund, currency, visitor linkage, and coverage status before relying on Commerce reports.
