Common questions ## FAQ ### Is Core Web Vitals Monitoring really free? Yes. Real-visitor Core Web Vitals, your traffic, 7 days of speed and traffic history, the weekly report and the slowdown alert are free on every account, up to 1,000 page views a day. Premium adds 180 days of history and the speed of each of your busiest pages. ### Will it slow my store down? No. The script loads with defer, so your page never waits for it, and it sends its data as the visitor leaves. ### Do I need to change my cookie banner? No. Nothing is stored on the visitor's device: no cookie, no local storage and no fingerprint, so there's nothing new to ask consent for. ### How is it different from the Store Speed Test? The [Store Speed Test](https://carthacker.com/store-speed-test/) is a one-time report on one page, built from Google's data and a PageSpeed Insights lab test. Core Web Vitals Monitoring measures every real visit, every day, so you see a slowdown the week it starts. ### Which platforms does it work on? WordPress and WooCommerce through the free plugin, and Shopify, PrestaShop, Magento, BigCommerce, Wix, Squarespace or any other website through one line of code in the site-wide header. ## Start monitoring your Core Web Vitals today Free on every account, no credit card required.
