How do I integrate the Google Tag Manager?

Google Tag Manager allows you to integrate 3rd party tags into your site and extend the marketing automation yourself.

The Google Tag Manager integration is comparable to the Google Analytics integration. The Tag Manager tag is executed on every page and also tracks the corresponding events, including transactions and E-commerce events. The integration with the Google Tag Manager allows you to integrate 3rd party tags into your site and extend the marketing automation yourself.

⚠️ Use Google Analytics without the Google Tag Manager

We recommend that you use our Google Analytics integration directly as it provides the safest integration with Google Analytics and is tested to perform as desired. Although Google might recommend using Tag Manager for Google Analytics, we recommend to use our direct integration. By using Google Analytics with Google Tag Manager you would have to map all the E-commerce events yourself within the Google Tag Manager.

⚠️ Only use Google Tag Manager when you are absolutely sure

Using Google Tag Manager carelessly can crash your site, harm your customers data and degrade the commercial and technical performance of your site. We recommend only using Google Tag Manager if you are absolutely sure why and how you want to use it. If you have tracking data that is not currently integrated automatically, contact the support or your account manager to check if an automatic integration is possible.

Setting up and integrating with the Google Tag Manager

The integration is already fully automated. All you need to do is to enter the Container ID of your Google Tag Management Container. The events will then be raised automatcially. Further information and all details about the Google Tag Manager implementation can be found in the Google Tag Manager Developer Documentation in the LODGEA Developer Portal.
