Confirmation Page Analytics

Overview

Our Affirm.js library now includes Confirmation Page Analytics. Confirmation Page Analytics offers insight into how customers interact with your site on the confirmation page. When a customer completes their purchase, you can send their order and product information to Affirm for tracking A/B testing, which will help you optimize your site and comprehensively measure the eCommerce lifecycle. You can send this information by adding the Confirmation Page function to your order confirmation page. Additionally, you can enable our Enhanced analytics functions to measure customer interactions with your site across their entire shopping experience.

1. Add Affirm.js

Before adding Enhanced Analytics function, you need to add the Affirm.js embed code to your global page template or in the global header if you haven't already done so:

<!-- Affirm -->
<script>
 _affirm_config = {
   public_api_key:  "YOUR_PUBLIC_KEY",
   script:          "https://cdn1-sandbox.affirm.com/js/v2/affirm.js",
 };
 (function(l,g,m,e,a,f,b){var d,c=l[m]||{},h=document.createElement(f),n=document.getElementsByTagName(f)[0],k=function(a,b,c){return function(){a[b]._.push([c,arguments])}};c[e]=k(c,e,"set");d=c[e];c[a]={};c[a]._=[];d._=[];c[a][b]=k(c,a,b);a=0;for(b="set add save post open empty reset on off trigger ready setProduct".split(" ");a<b.length;a++)d[b[a]]=k(c,e,b[a]);a=0;for(b=["get","token","url","items"];a<b.length;a++)d[b[a]]=function(){};h.async=!0;h.src=g[f];n.parentNode.insertBefore(h,n);delete g[f];d(g);l[m]=c})(window,_affirm_config,"affirm","checkout","ui","script","ready");
// Use your live public API Key and https://cdn1.affirm.com/js/v2/affirm.js script to point to Affirm production environment.
</script>
<!-- End Affirm -->

2. Add Confirmation Page Function

The trackOrderConfirmed event triggers when a customer completes their purchase. It measures the sale of one or more products. This function should be populated with order and products argument before adding it to the order confirmation page. All the values in the order and product arguments must be based on the order that was placed. We only require orderId, total, productId, and quantity for A/B testing.

Parameters:

  • order object - The order
  • products array - Products sold to the customer

Returns:

  • null

affirm.analytics.trackOrderConfirmed({
