Overview of Stape Gateway

Updated Apr 25, 2025

Stape Gateway is Stape’s stand-alone product that makes it easy to set up server-side tracking for Google Analytics 4 and Google Ads with pre-configured web GA4 and GAds tracking.

Benefits of Stape Gateway

  • Easily set up server-side tracking for GA4 and Google Ads without the hassle of manually configuring tags using the server Google Tag Manager container. Simply configure web tracking for GA4 and Google Ads and set up the Stape Gateway.
  • Client-side scripts are vulnerable to adblockers and browser restrictions, which can lead to underreported conversions and traffic. By placing GA4 and Google Ads behind a custom domain and server-side endpoint, you bypass adblockers and restrictions and see a truer reflection of user behavior.
  • Serving Stape Gateway from your own domain helps extend cookie lifetime in certain browsers (e.g., Safari, Firefox) that aggressively limit cookies. Longer cookie durations allow analytics to recognize users over more extended periods.

Technical Requirements

Stape Gateway works only based on data that web GA4 and/or gAds requests send. To use Stape Gateway, please ensure that web Google Analytics 4 and/or Google Ads tracking is configured for your website.
