Ecommerce Integration Documentation Version 1.0 (BETA)

Introduction

This guide describes how to send ecommerce (cart/order) data to your VBOUT account.

Usage examples can be found here.

Getting Started

Overview

There are two types of ecommerce data you can send:
  1. Cart Data
    Represents the cart and its product items
  2. Order Data
    Represents the successful order/purchase
  3. Intent Data
    Represents the shopper's interest in products and categories

Enable Ecommerce Tracking

To enable VBOUT ecommerce tracking plugin, go to your VBOUT Account's settings page, Website Tracking Code option, and find domain settings. Activate the e-commerce tracking under the "Domain Settings". Once the settings is enabled, you can start using the ecommerce code below to send cart and order data to your VBOUT account.

1. Include the script in your web-page:
<script src="https://www.vbout.com/ext/plugin.ecommerce.js"></script>
2. Create instance of VboutEcommerce and pass your VBOUT's domain account code and the options you want.

	var vboutEcommerceAccount = 'VBT-XXXXXX-XXXXX'; // Your VBOUT domain account
	var vboutEcommerceOptions = {
		ip: '10.20.30.40', // Set the IP for the Shopper
		uniqueid: 'as75-98df-6wer-cd36' // Set the unique identify for the Shopper
	};

	// Create instance of VboutEcommerce
	var vboutEcommerce = new VboutEcommerce(vboutEcommerceAccount, vboutEcommerceOptions);

Implementation

You can implement ecommerce tracking while the user is adding an item on the shopping cart or once the user has successfully completed the checkout process.

_vbset.push(["COMMAND", {
	// data to be passed to VBOUT's Ecommerce Tracking account
}]);
vboutEcommerce.command("COMMAND", { // data to be passed to VBOUT's Ecommerce Tracking account });

Tracking Anonymous Shoppers Versus Customers

VBOUT uses 3 different values to map the site visits, engagement and orders between your visitor's shopping cart and your VBOUT account.

These values are listed in the priority below:
  1. Emails Address of the shopper - (Primary identifier)
  2. Unique Shopper ID or "uniqueid" (Which can be set by you) - (Secondary identifier)
  3. Shopper's IP Address (Automatically detected by the VBOUT tracker) - (Tertiary network identifier)

Each time you send a PUSH call to VBOUT, you can pass along the Email and/or Unique Shopper ID (uniqueid) to map the history of the shopper to that PUSH call. If you do not have the email, the system will label this shopper as Anonymous and will use the "uniqueid" and IP to merge the data to one profile. If the "uniqueid" is not provided, the detected IP address will be used.

Consider the following case scenarios:
  1. A shopper visits 10 products on a phone then completes the purchase using the same device, providing an email during checkout. VBOUT will merge the 10 products visited to his newly created customer profile.
  2. If that same shopper uses a different device instead on the same network IP to checkout, VBOUT will read a different "uniqueid" and will not merge the history from his previous phone visits, unless you pass the same "uniqueid" used on his phone to the new device, inside the PUSH call.
  3. Any repeat engagement or purchases thereafter, using that same customer email, will be merged with the customer's existing profile on VBOUT, regardless of the "uniqueid" or network IP.
  4. If a different shopper on the same network IP makes a purchase using a different email address, the system will create a completely different customer profile on VBOUT.
  5. If you do not pass a "uniqueid" to VBOUT, the system will use the detected network IP to merge the activities to one profile under that one IP address, even if the visits were from two different people on the same network IP.
_vbset.push(["COMMAND", {
	"uniqueid": "13ee8a4b4076a4d3c9dbbd976c6f767f", // identify request source
}]);
vboutEcommerce.command("COMMAND", { "uniqueid": "13ee8a4b4076a4d3c9dbbd976c6f767f", // identify request source });

Sync Cart Data

Adding Cart Item
