About This Service

What Is GA4 Custom Metrics Setup?

Custom metrics in GA4 let you track numerical values specific to your business that are not captured by standard metrics, including items in cart value, search result count, video watch percentage, scroll depth as a precise value, or any other quantitative interaction signal. Custom metrics make it possible to build reports around numbers that actually drive your business decisions.

Configuring custom metrics requires registering each metric in the GA4 property with the correct unit including standard, currency, or time, and then passing the value consistently with the correct parameter name across all events that include it. Metric values passed as strings instead of numbers will not aggregate correctly in reports.

Adslytics implements custom metrics as part of a structured measurement schema with clear documentation of each metric definition, the events that send it, the parameter name that carries the value, and the unit of measurement. Every metric is verified in DebugView to confirm the correct data type is being received before the implementation is signed off.

What Clients Say

"We'd been running GA4 for six months with barely any useful data — missing events, broken funnels, no purchase data. After the audit and rebuild we finally have accurate revenue figures and a proper conversion funnel. Completely transformed how we report."

Sarah Kim

Head of Marketing

"The GA4 migration from Universal Analytics was blocking our whole reporting stack. The team handled the full migration, set up matching custom events and built us a Looker Studio dashboard that replaced our old UA reports within days."

David Marsh

Growth Manager

"Our GA4 was technically installed but 90% of the custom events we needed weren't firing. After the setup service we have scroll depth, video plays, form submissions and checkout steps all tracking correctly. Now we can actually optimise."

Lisa Park

Marketing Director

Yes — they appear as summed or averaged values in GA4 Explorations depending on the aggregation type.
An event count is just how many times an event fired. A custom metric is the numerical value attached to that event.
Custom metrics are primarily available in GA4 Explorations and Looker Studio, not standard reports.
Not directly — conversion values are set on the conversion event itself. Custom metrics are for analytical reporting.
No — only data collected after the custom metric is registered in GA4 admin appears against that metric.
