The number of sessions is the number that shows how much traffic your online store has in a month. All our products are divided into different packages based on how many sessions you use.
It is important to point out that the calculation of sessions differs from software to software, so one cannot compare sessions from e.g. Google Analytics against Personalized Shopping as Google uses a completely different algorithm to calculate it than what we do.
How are sessions calculated?
When a customer visits the webshop, the customer gets a session with us that lasts the entire visit. The customer will lose their session if they are inactive for a period of time or leave the online store. When the same customer returns after losing their session, a new session will be created that will work the same as before.
When are sessions reset?
The consumption of sessions will reset on the first day of each month.
How to retrieve sessions from Google Analytics
If you are a new customer and wondering what Personalized Shopping will cost, we can use Google Analytics' numbers as an indication. The number of sessions in Personalized Shopping is always higher than what you see on Google.
- In the control panel of GA, select "Target audience".
- In the submenu, select "Overview"
- Select the period from the first of the previous month to the last day of the previous month. The result is that you will get a data basis for the whole of last month.
- Read by the number of "Sessions". This is Google's variant of sessions.

The result you get is just an estimate and won't necessarily be what you end up paying.
