I'm not very familiar with UTMs in URLs but am looking in to this, can you show me your code for how you are currently trying to set them before on links in the pricing table or from the client reference ID after?

Thanks for the quick reply! Yep – so the first attempt that works on every link but stripe is managed through a website plugin, but you can see it in action if you go to https://www.virtualpbx.com/products/plan-comparison/?utm_source=stripe&utm_campaign=test and then click on an external link (like "System Status") in the footer. You'll see that the utm values follow you.
And then here's the JS solution we attempted to send data through client reference ID (screenshot) using the UTM "irclickid" which does not work.

Gotcha. Unfortunately it looks like we don't currently support those directly. Would it make sense to add the checkout session ID to the end of your success URL and re-append those values once the server lands on your success page? https://stripe.com/docs/payments/checkout/pricing-table#post-purchase-experience

I was thinking about that... but since the UTM's values have possibly a hundred different variations, is there a way to do that dynamically? Kind of like how the session ID is served dynamically... something like virtualpbx.com/thanks?session_id={CHECKOUT_SESSION_ID}&utm_source={utm_source} ?
otherwise, that might work if we have a different pricing page for every utm combo we want to track

Unfortunately the checkout session Id is the only thing that can be dynamically passed here at the moment. Would it break the value of the UTM info if the user os directed to your site without those values and they are appended back on after?

not break, but change. We use this to track different marketing campaigns so if they came in with one value and then we changed it, then we are incorrectly attributing the sale to the wrong campaign. We do have some paths that are locked down to a particular campaign and could create pricing tables for use on those only though and I'll try to implement that. Just harder for the campaigns where people are going all over our website

Gotcha, yeah I think that would be the best solution here with the pricing table's current capabilities. It would be possible to customize individual Checkout Sessions to at least have these params in the return URL that but unfortunately the pricing table is more limited in what can be set here.
