Why GTM Is Holding Your Shopify Store Back
If you’re still relying on GTM for tracking, here’s what you’re risking:
- 🚫 Missed 10–20% of your tracked conversions
- 🐢 Slower page loads by 751ms or more
- 🔍 Broken, unreliable browser-based tags that tank your ad performance
GTM was never built for today’s Shopify ecosystem. Now there’s a faster, more accurate way.
Real GTM Load Time on Mobile:
Over 2,294 ms and 611 KiB just to load tracking. This slows down your entire Shopify storefront and hurts your ROAS.
Meet Shopify’s Native Power Tools
Shopify WebPixels → Real-time customer behavior tracking, faster performance, fully embedded into Shopify’s system.
Shopify Webhooks → Capture backend events (like manual orders, POS sales, and more). No browser dependence.
Both of them eliminate the need for slow, error-prone GTM setups.
