How to track revenue with Stripe in your analytics

TL;DR: To track Stripe revenue in analytics, connect your Stripe account to a revenue-aware tool like Reignat, verify that payments appear beside traffic sources, and use the same dashboard for campaigns and landing pages. You do not need GA4 ecommerce events for this path.

Traffic without revenue is a vanity dashboard. Stripe already knows what you earned; analytics should know which visit earned it. Full product context: revenue attribution. Setup detail: revenue docs.

Step by step

1. Install Reignat on the marketing site and app

Use one project (or clearly separated projects) so landing pages and post-login surfaces share attribution where appropriate. Install guide.

2. Connect Stripe in project settings

Create a restricted Stripe key with the read scopes documented in advanced revenue setup, then paste it into Reignat. Prefer live keys only on production projects.

3. Place a test payment

Run a small live or clearly marked test charge from a known campaign URL (UTMs help). Confirm the payment lands in Reignat attributed to the expected source/page.

4. Read revenue next to traffic

Use referrers, landing pages, and campaigns views to see income beside visits — the point of revenue-first analytics.

5. Expand to funnels

Once payments flow, add a funnel for landing → signup → paid. Drop-off tells you what to fix next.

Tips that save a weekend

• Keep UTM hygiene on ads and partnership links.
• Do not mix test-mode Stripe keys into a production analytics project.
• Compare Stripe totals to Reignat totals after refunds settle.
• If you use Polar or Paddle instead, the same docs section covers them.
