Funnel types
Ordered, unordered, flexible and time-bound funnels explained.
Spectry supports four funnel types. Choose the one that matches how your flow actually works.
Ordered
Steps must be completed in the exact sequence defined. This is the most common type — ideal for linear flows like checkout where order matters.
Unordered
Steps can be completed in any order; the funnel only checks that each step happened. Use this when several actions contribute to a conversion but their sequence is irrelevant.
Flexible
Like ordered, but you can mark specific steps as optional. Visitors who skip an optional step still count as progressing. Useful when some steps don't apply to every visitor.
Time-bound
All steps must be completed within a defined time window (minutes, hours or up to 24 hours). Use this to measure conversions that should happen in a single sitting.
Start with ordered for most flows; switch to flexible or time-bound only if your data is being under- or over-counted.
