How Amplitude collects Revenue data, by Install Date or Event Date?

Greetings,

 

There are two ways calculating the revenue or any event. First one is by install date. Let’s say if I installed the app on the 1st June and made my first purchase on the 15th June, my purchase will appear on the 1st June. Because it is grouped by my Install Date.

If it is counted by Event Date, no matter when I have installed the app, my purchase will appear on the 15th June because purchase was made on that day and it is grouped by Event Date.

 

My question is, how Amplitude count that data?

I am not talking about Revenue LTV. It is about “Revenue” event which can be grouped by “$price".

 

Sincerely and thanks!,

Canay

Hey @canayPM1 

I’m not too familiar with revenue charts in Amplitude, but from what I understand from the documentation,

this will be by the event time of your purchase event using any of the mentioned SDKs/APIs.

The doc says “Note that these properties must be explicitly sent by you via Amplitude's SDKs or server-side when you log revenue events.” - so the day the app purchase was made will be the day the revenue event will be logged and sent to Amplitude.
