# UTM Parameters

## UTM Parameters

UTM Tracking enables you to monitor link clicks from your emails using Google Analytics. This feature automatically appends UTM parameters to your email links before sending.

{% hint style="info" %}
**NOTE:**

* Google Analytics tracks conversions based on link clicks, whereas Retainful relies on direct data from your eCommerce platform.
* Due to this difference, analytics data from Google Analytics and Retainful may not always align perfectly. In most cases, Retainful's conversion tracking provides more accurate results.
