Friendbuy as a Destination
Segment makes it easy to integrate Friendbuy with your website. Friendbuy's JavaScript snippets are automatically loaded and executed via Segment’s analytics.js library. This eliminates the need to have your developer manually add and manage Friendbuy’s code directly on your site. Enabling the integration will automatically:
Load Friendbuy widgets: Segment's existing page calls are mapped to Friendbuy’s push widget command
Notify Friendbuy about customers: Segment's existing identify calls are mapped to Friendbuy's track customer command
Notify Friendbuy of orders: Segment's existing track calls are mapped to Friendbuy's track order and track product command
