Viewing order conversion summary
Shopify's conversion summary gives an overview of a customer's previous visits and behavior leading up to a purchase from your store. The conversion summary displays on the order details page and includes an overview of:
- the customer's total number of orders from your store
- the customer's total visits to your store in the last 30 days
- the origin of the customer's first visit to your store
You can also click View conversion details for additional conversion details for that customer:
- the total number of visits the customer has made to your store
- the number of days between the first visit and the most recent visit
- an overview of customer activity, including visits between the first and most recent visit
The conversion summary on an order details page is specific to the customer who made that order. If you want to view conversion information for your Online Store sales channel overall, then use the online store conversion report.

No conversion summary available
There are instances when the conversion summary details might be unavailable.

- The order did not come from your Online Store or Hydrogen sales channels.
View a customer's visit details
When viewing an order's conversion details, you can drill down to the visit details by clicking View full sessions next to the customer's activity.
The customer's visit details can include:
Session referral
The session referral section provides a general overview of where your customer was referred from, which page they landed on, the date and time of their visit, and the referral code, if present.
App details
If the order is a referral from a marketing campaign using a marketing app, then it will display in this section.
UTM parameters
UTM parameters are tags that you can add to the end of a URL that you can send to your customers (for example, https://www.yourstorename.com/?utm_source=emailcampaign). When a customer clicks the link, the tags are sent back to Google Analytics for tracking and reporting purposes.
Some marketing apps come with pre-set parameters. If you're using Google Ads, then you can automatically add UTM parameters to your URLs or you can set custom parameters using a URL builder.
