What is Google Tag Manager

Google Tag Manager (GTM) is a user-friendly, powerful and essential integration for every Magento store. It simplifies the process of adding, editing and managing third-party JavaScript tags and other snippets of code on your Magento site. With GTM, you can quickly and easily add Facebook tags, AdWords Conversion Tracking, Re-marketing, Bing UET, SnapChat, DoubleClick code, Google Analytics, and many more in a breeze without the need for a developer to make changes to your Magento code providing the data is available to Google Tag Manager.

Google Tag Manager makes running your digital marketing campaigns much easier when calibrating with multiple department and Ad agencies by making available the right set of tools so that everyone can get their job done quickly without relying on developers.

Without having the all data you need at your fingertips your integration will become a difficult, time-consuming and messy since each developer will only focus on the current task at hand instead of focusing on writing reusable components for future integration.

Our extension provides a vast array of over 60 preconfigure data layer elements to make integrating your Magento store with any other third-party service a breeze using Google Tag Manager. Extracting, customizing and adding your own custom data from your Magento store to Google Tag Manager is as easy as 10 lines of code using our easy to customize APIs.

⚠️ Google Tag Manager 2.7.0 has some breaking changes to Enhanced Ecommerce. Please download the latest version of Enhanced Ecommerce 1.7.0 or greater from www.magepal.com account.
