You can enable a thank you page to be used instead of our standard successful booking message on our online booking form. The thank you page will redirect customers after they successfully book to a new page (thank you for booking page) with its own unique URL.
Use your Universal ID from your Google Analytics account to track thank you page traffic by linking it to your thank you page.
If you already use Google products, such as Gmail or Google Ads, then you can use the same account for Google Analytics.
If you don't already have an account for a Google product, first create a Google account. You don't have to use the Gmail account for anything other than signing in and out of Google Analytics.
