Request to add websites to Google Analytics Referral Exclusion list

As part of the onboarding process, we will need to add a URL / domain to your Google Analytics Referral Exclusions list. This is to ensure the Source/Medium traffic data is accurate.

Please share the below instructions with your web/dev team to apply the changes needed to exclude PayPal and LiveChat from your referral sources. Alternatively, you can give us the email address of the person who we can work with and we'll communicate with them directly (we'll cc you).

We're not able to make changes on our end as we do not have the  required  Admin access to your Google Analytics account and its Property settings.

Here's the instruction on how to add a domain to the Referral Exclusion list.

  • Google Analytics Tracking ID: *UA-XXXXXXXX
