Important: We strongly recommend you consult a professional for help with setting up Google Analytics, view Google's analytics documentation here .

Getting started

Rezdy booking code snippet

If you have embedded a Rezdy book now button or booking widget into your website, you must also include the javascript (pluginJs) when pasting the Rezdy code snippet into your website builder.

Set up cross-domain measurement

Which ever setup method you use, either a GTAG manually installed on to your website or a more sophisticated setup using Google Tag Manager (GTM); you will need to set up a cross-domain measurement. Click here to learn more .

You need your main website URL i.e. mywebsite.com, and;
your Rezdy booking form URL i.e. companyname.rezdy.com. This can be found within Settings > Company Profile.

Tip: Select Contains as the Match type (unless you have very specific reasons), and omit paths like 'https://' or '/mypage/1/2'.

Google Tag Manager (GTM) setup

Note: If you choose to set up GA using GTM, you do not need to complete the GTAG method.

Follow Google's instructions on how to set up and deploy a GTM container onto your website, ensuring your Google Analytics 4 GTAG is included.

You will be required to copy & paste a code snippet similar to below:

<!-- Google Tag Manager -->
<script>(function(w,d,s,l,i){w[l]=w[l]||[];w[l].push({'gtm.start':
new Date().getTime(),event:'gtm.js'});var f=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0],
j=d.createElement(s),dl=l!='dataLayer'?'&l='+l:'';j.async=true;j.src=
'https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtm.js?id='+i+dl;f.parentNode.insertBefore(j,f);
})(window,document,'script','dataLayer','GTM-XXXXXXX');</script>
<!-- End Google Tag Manager -->

Replace 'GTM-XXXXXXX' with your measurement ID.

Google Analytics (GTAG) setup

Note: If you choose to set up GA using GTAG, you do not need to complete the GTM method.

Follow Google's instructions on how to set up analytics on your website. You will be required to copy & paste a code snippet similar to below (into the <head> section), on all pages you want to measure:

<!-- Google tag (gtag.js) --> 
<script async src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=G-XXXXXXXXXX"></script> 
<script>
window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || []; 
function gtag(){dataLayer.push(arguments);} 
gtag('js', new Date()); 
gtag('config', 'G-XXXXXXXXXX'); 
</script>

Replace 'G-XXXXXXXXXX' with your measurement ID.
