Switch from Fairing to Causality Engine
Fairing uses post-purchase attribution surveys. Causality Engine uses causal inference on your GA4 export. There is nothing to migrate: the first read takes 1 to 2 minutes, and you can run both side by side.
€99 once, excl. VAT. Keep Fairing running while you compare.
Fairing and Causality Engine, side by side.
Short answer: Keep Fairing. Causality Engine is not a replacement for it: it installs nothing and reads the GA4 export you already have, so it adds a read of what each channel caused on top of Fairing's post-purchase attribution surveys, for €99.

Causality Engine installs nothing on your site. It reads the GA4 export you already have, so it runs on top of any tool here without touching its setup. The one condition: GA4 runs on your store too. “Not stated” means we could not find it on the vendor's own pages or listings on 12 October 2026; it does not mean the feature is missing.

Competitor pricing is each vendor's publicly listed pricing as read on the date shown, and it changes without notice: verify on the vendor's own site before relying on it. Vendors without a public price are marked as such. Comparisons set Causality Engine's one-time €99 analysis against subscription models.
How to switch, in five steps.
No cancellation required yet
Keep Fairing running. Causality Engine reads your GA4 CSV export, so nothing conflicts and no data moves between the two.
Upload your GA4 CSV (no integration required)
Export 12 months or more of GA4 data and upload it. Longer reads better. No OAuth, no pixel, no code, no DNS changes. Shopify native is on the roadmap.
Run your first analysis
What each channel caused, next to last-click, with a data-health score on each, 1 to 2 minutes after the upload. Compare it with what Fairing was telling you.
Evaluate side by side
Run both for a month and compare them channel by channel. Where they disagree is where a budget decision is at stake.
Cancel Fairing when ready
Only if the side-by-side says you should. Nothing in Causality Engine depends on Fairing being gone.
