Optimizing Price-Related UX
Use Case
Industry: Retail
Hypothesis:
The customer experience in today’s e-commerce includes a few steps until an order is submitted:
- Product selection
- Add to Cart
- Delivery Information
- Check out/Billing/Payment
In this use case, learn how a floral wire service used SiteSpect to test if hiding fees (delivery, subtotal) at certain steps of the buyer’s journey impacted conversion.
Campaign
In this experiment, the Control showed delivery fees and subtotal on cart, delivery, and checkout/billing steps:
- Variation Group 1: Hide fees on cart and only show them on delivery and checkout/billing steps.
- Variation Group 2: Hide fees on cart and delivery steps, and only show them on the checkout/billing step.
Results
The winning variation: Hide fees on cart and delivery steps, and only show them on the checkout/billing step.
- 3.7% increase in orders
- 3.4% increase in revenue per visit
- $475,000 additional revenue in the winning VG than the control just during the length of the test.
This is a great way of optimizing price-related UX without changing the final price charged.
