      Ensure that the reporting Timezone and Currency match your Shopify stores.
      alert ordinal icon
      It's very important that the GA4 currency matches your Shopify's store's currency. If they don't match, GA4's exchange rates will be wrong and the reported revenue will be off.

      There is no reason for a Shopify store to have multiple data streams in the same GA4 property if you don't have a mobile app. If you have different stores for different countries/regions, you should still only have one GA4 Data Stream.
