Turn Browsers Into Buyers
Understand every step of the customer journey - from first click to repeat purchase.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about e-commerce analytics
What is e-commerce analytics and why does it matter?
E-commerce analytics tracks how customers interact with your online store from first visit to repeat purchase. It matters because understanding user behavior helps you reduce cart abandonment, increase conversion rates, and grow customer lifetime value. KISSmetrics provides person-level tracking so you can see complete individual customer journeys.
How does KISSmetrics track e-commerce customer journeys?
KISSmetrics tracks individual users across devices and sessions using person-level identity resolution. This means you can see the complete path from first ad click to purchase, including return visits across different devices. Each touchpoint is connected to a real person, not an anonymous session.
Can KISSmetrics help reduce cart abandonment?
Yes. KISSmetrics provides funnel reports that show exactly where customers drop off in your checkout flow. You can segment abandoners by behavior, source, or any property, then trigger automated recovery emails through native behavioral campaigns to bring them back.
How does KISSmetrics compare to Google Analytics for e-commerce?
Google Analytics tracks anonymous sessions with data sampling. KISSmetrics tracks identified individuals with no sampling and unlimited data retention. This means you can see complete customer journeys, attribute revenue accurately across touchpoints, and trigger actions based on individual behavior.
What e-commerce platforms does KISSmetrics integrate with?
KISSmetrics integrates natively with Shopify, WooCommerce, and other major e-commerce platforms. It also supports custom implementations via JavaScript snippet or REST API, and connects to marketing tools through 30+ integrations including Zapier.
How long does it take to set up KISSmetrics for an e-commerce store?
Most e-commerce teams start tracking events within the first day using native platform integrations. Every plan includes a 1-hour onboarding call where analytics experts help you define the right tracking schema for your store. For full implementation, the Done-For-You service handles everything.
