The problems you keep fighting
1
GA, Shopify, ad platforms, email, CRM - all reporting different truths.
2
Limited insights & biased attribution. Over-credits last click and favors Google Ads by default.
3
Goals, custom metrics, and tracking require heavy technical setup.
4
Surface-level metrics only - little LTV, cohort, or profit context.
5
Manual exports, spreadsheets, and reconciliation eat time.

Got Questions? We've Got Answers
What if Polar and GA4 don’t match?
They won’t - and that’s the point. Polar is first-party and de-duplicates across channels to match Shopify orders 1:1. GA4 frequently under-reports and samples at volume. We show both side-by-side so you can trust the numbers you scale with.
Can we keep GA4?
Yes. Many brands keep GA4 for directional trends and use Polar as the system of record for spend allocation, forecasting, and reporting.
Can we send conversions back to ad platforms?
Yes. Activate first-party conversions to platforms such as Google Ads and Meta for smarter bidding and better ROAS.
How complex is the setup?
Connectors + Pixel and you’re live in hours. No data layer rebuilds, no code, no new hire. Our team handles onboarding and discrepancy analysis with you.
Will we lose history?
No. We import historical data and unify it for clean year-over-year comparisons - even after a site redesign or platform change.
Do you support POS and offline?
Yes - sync POS and offline touchpoints for a single source of truth with blended online and retail performance
