TripleWhale combines dashboard and attribution features for agencies and e-commerce brands, giving a single overview for tracking all major business and ad performance metrics.
Users can customize dashboard layout, display configurations, pin key metrics, and create custom metric formulas (e.g., custom margin ratio).
Integration with Shopify, Meta, TikTok, Google, and other platforms is seamless, allowing centralized management, expense tracking, and revenue analysis.
The tool supports adding team members, managing user permissions, and customizing settings such as currency, pinned summaries, and cost details.
Cost of goods, shipping rates, geographic regions, gateway fees, and custom expenses (e.g., agency fees) can be individually tracked and reported.

TripleWhale offers attribution views (e.g., Triple Attribution, Total Impact) enabling comparison of results across channels and reconciling metrics with source-of-truth platforms.
Users can analyze channel-specific spend, ROAS, new customer metrics, overlap sessions, and conversion values.
The pixel setup is crucial to ensure accurate data tracking; integration of conversion APIs (e.g., Sonar) is recommended for robust attribution.
Direct budget adjustments within TripleWhale are possible, eliminating the need to switch between multiple ad managers.

Retention analytics provide insights into audience groups, customer lifecycle value, and cohort analysis by acquisition month.
Post-purchase surveys can be customized and analyzed to understand customer motivations and identify purchase objections, informing marketing strategy.
Product and cart analytics (e.g., product journey, bundle strategy) are available but less frequently used in this workflow.

TripleWhale is recommended for agencies and brands spending significant amounts on ads, with free and paid plan options depending on usage and need for advanced features (e.g., pixel tracking, user seats).
The software’s summary and pixel analytics are identified as the most valuable tools for ongoing business health checks and performance optimization.
