In the weekly "This week in your shop" email from Etsy, Share and Save links were reported as Offsite ads.
The stats show:
New orders: 3
Orders from offsite ads: 2
Visits to your shop: 135, Visits from offsite ads: 105
Cha-ching! You've had 2 Share and Save orders
My shop stats in the Etsy Seller app show Share and Save clicks were 107.
This misclassification seems like a bug.
Wow! Did you check your Finances??? Were you charged for Offsite Ad fees??? Or did you receive credits for Share and Save orders?
Wondering if it's just a display glitch vs incorrectly charged!
oh this is interesting.... hope others will share if they are noticing the same thing...
This happened to me too this week but I was not charged an off-site ads fee when I checked my finances and did get the share and save refund.
there is nothing like accurate stats to give us shop owners important information. I stopped depending on etsy and every other so-called service provider, years ago, to give me anything that is helpful stat-wise.
Does anyone know how to log it as a bug? It was just a reporting error, the finances were correct.
