Referral traffic is the segment of traffic that arrives on your website through another source, like a link on another domain. While this is useful in understanding which websites are referring customers to your website, you will also notice that things like social login or payment gateways start showing as referrals albeit not being actual referrers or a part of your customer acquisition sources.

Here is how to remove those "spammy" referrals from Google Analytics using Funnelll.

  1. Navigate to Apps & Integrations > Google Analytics from the left navigation

  2. Click Use App

    Funnelll Apps & Integrations Catalog

  3. Click Settings
