Google Analytics allows you to maintain tracking sessions across different domains that your store may have.

Because Bold Subscriptions' V1 checkout takes place on a different domain than your Shopify store (recurringorders.com), you will need to use cross-domain tracking to track your customers through the entire checkout process.

If you know where your existing Google Analytics tracking code is, you can replace it with what is shown here, or follow the steps below to setup your cross-domain tracking.

1. From the Shopify admin, select Online Store.
2. Select Preferences.
3. Copy and paste this code in the Google Analytics account box:
   

   <script>
   ga('create', 'YOUR GOOGLE ANALYTICS ID HERE LIKE UA-XXXXX-Y', 'auto', {allowLinker: true});
   ga('require', 'linker');
   ga('linker:autoLink', ['your custom domain mystore.com', 'your myshopify domain mystore.myshopify.com', 'recurringcheckout.com'], false, true);
   </script>

4. Be sure to replace the UA-XXXXX-Y in this code with your Google Analytics ID:

   

5. Replace the your custom domain mystore.com text with your stores domain name.
6. Replace your myshopify domain mystore.myshopify.com with your myshopify domain.
7. Select Save.

Google Autocomplete allows your customers to auto-fill their information in the checkout, as well as their searches. If your customer uses Google Chrome, they will be able to have their recently typed information come up as a suggestion.

This feature utilizes both of the Google Maps Javascript API and the Google Places Web Service API.

1. Log into the Google API Console.
2. Select Select a project.
3. Select your project. If you do not have a project yet, you would instead select Create Project.
4. Enter a Project name.
5. Select Create Billing Account.

   Note: Google Cloud accounts require you to enter additional payment information for the API to work correctly. When you enable billing, Google provides you with $300 of free usage every month for Maps, Routes, or Places. Visit Add, remove, or update a payment method (links to Google) for more information on setting up billing for Google Cloud Services.

6. Select Browse to choose a location.
7. Select the location, then choose Select.

10. Select ENABLE APIS AND SERVICES.
11. Search for Places API, and select it.
    
12. Select Enable.
