Shopify Video Analytics: Track Views, Clicks and Attributed Revenue

Views tell you a video was seen. Attributed revenue tells you it sold something.

The four numbers that matter per video are views, product tag clicks, add-to-carts and attributed revenue, and each one answers a different question.

Shopify's built-in reports cannot attribute an order to a specific video, so per-reel revenue has to come from the widget that served it.

Attribution is a rule, not a fact. Know whether your tool counts a sale when the shopper clicked the tag, added from the video, or merely watched it.

Small sample sizes produce wild per-video conversion rates. Compare placements and feeds first, individual reels only once they have hundreds of views.

Can Shopify analytics show which video led to a sale?

Not on its own. Shopify's reports attribute orders to traffic sources, landing pages and marketing channels, but they have no concept of an on-site video.
