Enterprise-Grade eCommerce Tracking, Attribution & Sales Recovery

UNICENTRO is one of Paraguay’s largest retail chains, operating a powerful eCommerce presence via VTEX Headless CMS. With thousands of SKUs and high daily order volumes, they’re a national leader in fashion, lifestyle, and retail, but their data was breaking down where it mattered most.

We didn’t "just fix the tags." We reverse-engineered platform expectations, re-aligned the data model with GA4/Ads/VTEX standards, and built a future-proof signal system.

GA4 Tracking Accuracy

65%

Google Merchant Listings

18,400+

The Problem
UNICENTRO was facing a critical attribution failure:

❌ Fragmented tracking with no visibility on micro-conversions

❌ 40–50% mismatch between actual purchases and GA4 data

❌ VTEX eCommerce data not matching front-end GA4 metrics

❌ Google Ads & Meta remarketing based on incomplete signals

❌ Thousands of products unlisted in Merchant Center

Our Solution
We deployed an end-to-end scalable data architecture that fixed the root, not just the symptoms.

Technical Execution:
GA4 + GTM Full Overhaul
Built robust client-side + server-side tracking across all funnel steps
Setup sGTM on Google Cloud Run for cost-optimized, scalable hosting
Implemented durable identity logic (GCLID, FBCLID, uid stitching)

Micro-Touchpoint Event Tracking
View Item, Add to Cart, Checkout Steps, Purchase
Internal Promotions, Site Search, Filter Clicks
Scroll depth, login/register events for funnel segmentation

eCommerce Accuracy Fix
Aligned all VTEX purchase events with GA4 schema
Achieved 80%–95% data accuracy in GA4 after setup

Google Merchant Center Cleanup
Identified & patched missing feed attributes
Reinstated over 23,000 products, previously rejected/unlisted
Set up automated supplemental feeds to maintain listing quality

Looker Studio Dashboards (Unified Analytics)

Why It Worked
We didn’t “just fix the tags.” We reverse-engineered platform expectations, re-aligned the data model with GA4/Ads/VTEX standards, and built a future-proof signal system.

Every click, touchpoint, and product interaction is now measurable, attributable, and monetizable.

“We used to guess. Now we scale with confidence.”
