Informations about the package laravel-referrer
Remember the Visitor Referrer Across Requests
This package allows you to detect and store visitor referrers so that you can access them later. A typical use case would be saving the referrer in a database when a visitor registers in your app.
Out of the box, it captures:
- Google Click ID (gclid)
- Meta Click ID (fbclid)
- TikTok Click ID (ttclid)
- Header referrer value
- All URL UTM values
- Or add your own source
The package is designed to be highly flexible regarding:
- How you want to detect the referrer
- How you want to store the referrer value
Out of the box, it can store referrer values in:
- Laravel Context
- Laravel Session
- A Cookie
- Or add your own driver

This package supports 3 capture strategies:
- First: Only capture the first referrer of each source
- Last: Only capture the last referrer of each source
- All: Capture all referrers
From the config, you can define a strategy globally using:
You can also define the strategy per source like this:
