+Segment recommends using the prebuilt mappings when possible; however, the Segment spec doesn’t have an equivalent event for every Google Analytics 4 recommended event. If there are other recommended events you would like to send, please use the [Custom Event action](https://segment-docs.netlify.app/docs/connections/destinations/catalog/actions-google-analytics-4-web/#custom-event). For example, to send a spend_virtual_currency event, create a mapping for Custom Event, set up your Event Trigger criteria, and input a literal string of “spend_virtual_currency” as the Event Name. You can use the Event Parameters object to add fields that are in the spend_virtual_currency event such as value and virtual_currency_name. Keep in mind that any custom parameters will need to be defined as [custom dimensions and metrics](https://segment-docs.netlify.app/docs/connections/destinations/catalog/actions-google-analytics-4-web/#custom-dimensions-and-metrics) in your GA4 workspace first.
