Set up Google Tag Manager

High-level overview of Google Tag Manager including common use cases and key features of this tag management solution.

What is Google Tag Manager?

Google Tag Manager is a tag management system that allows you to quickly and easily update measurement codes and related code fragments collectively known as tags on your website or mobile app. Once the small segment of Tag Manager code has been added to your project, you can safely and easily deploy analytics and measurement tag configurations from a web-based user interface.

How can I use it on my platform?

You'll find Google Tag Manager useful if you want to track specific interactions like views on an activity. You can use it for third party tools like Facebook Pixel too.

For us to set up Google Tag Manager, there's a one off set up fee of £250.
 
We would set up your organisation within tag manager, add all the necessary code to your platform for it to work, complete a couple of test tags and then pass over the access to you to add your own tags & triggers.

How to use Google Tag Manager

When Tag Manager is installed, your website or app will be able to communicate with the Tag Manager servers. You can then use Tag Manager's web-based user interface to set up tags, establish triggers that cause your tag to fire when certain events occur, and create variables that can be used to simplify and automate your tag configurations.

A collection of tags, triggers, variables, and related configurations installed on a given website or mobile app is called a container. A Tag Manager container can replace all other manually-coded tags on a site or app, including tags from Google AdsGoogle AnalyticsFloodlight, and 3rd party tags
