Order Conversion Summary
The order conversion summary records the customer's visits to the store before placing an order and the behaviors that led to a purchase within the store. This summary is displayed on the Order Details page and mainly includes an overview of the following:
- Customer’s order count to date.
- The number of days and frequency of visits before the customer completes the order.
- Information on the customer's first interaction source within the last 30 days.
- Information on the customer's last interaction source within the last 30 days.
Viewing Conversion Details
Under the Orders > Order details page > Conversion summary section, you can view the conversion details of an order. This section shows the customer's order count to date and calculates the number of days and visits it took for the customer to complete this transaction. This data helps evaluate the effectiveness of specific customer or channel conversions.
In the Conversion summary section, the terms "Total traffic" and "Days for conversion" are defined as follows:
Total traffic | It refers to the total number of visits made by the customer during the current order conversion period. |
Days for conversion | It indicates the time interval from the customer's first visit to the completion of the order within the current order conversion period. |
Note: Calculating the order conversion requires tracing the customer's visit history; thus, detailed summary information may take about 3-5 minutes to display after the order is completed. |
First and Last Interaction Sources
Under Orders > Order details page > Conversion summary > View conversion details section, you can further examine the customer's first and last interaction sources. SHOPLINE uses a 30-day attribution window to determine the origin of interaction visits based on the customer's source of visit and changes in landing page UTM parameters.
Example 1: Jason clicked on your Facebook ad link, visited your store for the first time, and immediately made a purchase of a product. Both the first and last interaction sources for this order are Facebook.
Example 2: Jacqueline found your product link via Google search, visited your store out of interest, browsed several products, and registered an account with her email, but left without making a purchase. After a few days, you sent her a promotional email via the email marketing tool Omnisend. She clicked on the discounted item in the email and completed the order. The first interaction source for this order is Google, and the last interaction source is the email marketing tool Omnisend.

Empty Conversion Summary
In some cases, the conversion summary may not be available due to the following reasons:
- Applications and specialized browsers that block cookie tracking can prevent the collection of conversion data.
- Initial orders that are created as draft orders may not track conversion details until they are finalized.
- The order may not have originated from the online store.
