Shop Partners – Welcome the New Checkout

We’ve been putting the new Check Out to a test for about half a year, and now we’re convinced that it runs smoothly and facilitates ordering nicely. It’s fully optimised for mobile use, and its user friendly design and more efficient checkout process is bound to generate more orders for your shop. That’s why we’re now saying goodbye to the old version with immediate effect, so all hail the all new Checkout!

The Good News

You’ll see the new look at first glance. The layout is more intuitive, and all the steps that lead to completing an order will now take place on a single page. This more straight-forward procedure takes your customer more swiftly and neatly to where it counts: the conclusion of the order. What’s more, the new mobile-optimised functionality caters to the needs of the ever-increasing numbers of smartphone shoppers. About half of all orders are done on mobile devices, and counting.

The Better News

Many Shop Partners have already been testing the new Checkout in recent months, and the average conversion rate has increased by 17%. This means that customers who put a product into the basket check out without interrupting the checkout procedure. Of course, this will in turn result in more sales for you, and that’s surely something to make you happy. Loading times of the checkout page have been greatly improved as well, which is another bonus as nobody likes waiting in queue behind a busy counter.

The All New Checkout

The very positive test results have made the decision easy. The old version will be discontinued with immediate effect, and the new Checkout will be available for every Shop.

We hope that you’ll like the new Checkout just as much as we do, and we look forward to your feedback. Have you already gathered any experience with the new version? We look forward to your comments below.
