Use Lucky Orange with Shopify: Track Purchases & Adds to Cart in Dashboard

The Dashboard is your mission control center, and you can track all of the Shopify integration Events mentioned here. Most of our Shopify users prefer to track these checkout Events that are preloaded for Shopify merchants: 

  • Checkout Started
  • Checkout Address Info Submitted
  • Checkout Shipping Info Submitted
  • Payment Information Submitted
  • Checkout Contact Info Submitted
  • Ordered

Reminder: Shopify's privacy restrictions prevent non-Shopify Plus merchants from viewing Session Recordings or Dynamic Heatmaps of visitors on the checkout page. We have you covered – Lucky Orange provides an alternative method through checkout-specific Events, bolded in the chart above, which allows you to track the visitor's journey throughout the checkout process. Click here to learn more about this policy.

Shopify Plus merchants can access checkout data automatically once Lucky Orange is installed. Click here to learn more.
