Redtrack vs. LeadMetrics

Both LeadMetrics and Redtrack.io offer powerful tracking solutions. While Redtrack.io is particularly suitable for affiliates and performance marketers with extensive automation features, LeadMetrics scores points with full GDPR compliance, high tracking accuracy and an intuitive user interface — ideal for European companies that value data protection and ease of use.

Data protection & GDPR compliance

RedTrack claims to provide GDPR-compliant tracking features, including cookieless tracking, IP masking, and consent options. However, data processing is carried out via a global server network — specific information on European data storage is not shown transparently.

LeadMetrics on the other hand offers:

  • Data processing exclusively on EU servers
  • No detours via third countries
  • GDPR-by-design: from cookie handling to session allocation
  • Full legal compliance for companies in the DACH region

Tracking accuracy

RedTrack offers a comprehensive server-side tracking system with supported cookieless tracking, click ID matching, and SubID attribution — ideal for affiliates and high-volume ad campaigns.

LeadMetrics goes beyond classic ad-click allocation:

  • One code tracking for all website events and sessions
  • Direct Track for automatic event transfer to Meta Pixel & Google Tag
  • Form Tracking with automatic lead allocation via email/telephone
  • Up to 95% tracking efficiency, even under cookie restrictions

Ease of use & setup

RedTrack is aimed primarily at tech-savvy users, affiliate managers and agencies. The dashboard offers many options — but also some training and technical understanding.

LeadMetrics is deliberately tailored for performance marketers without a development team:

  • No setup via GTM or custom scripts
  • Ready to use with just a few clicks
  • Custom dashboards and widgets for individual KPIs and funnels
  • Designed for small and large marketing teams without technical hurdles

Price & transparency:

RedTrack offers plans from $149/month, but prices rise rapidly with higher traffic, API access, or number of users. Some features, such as custom domains or subuser management, are reserved for higher plans.
