Add the Amazon Pay extension to help your business move at the speed of Amazon 

As an ecommerce merchant, you constantly have to scale for success. The industry keeps you on your toes. New trends are always emerging as shopping habits change, and exciting innovations routinely transform the digital marketplace. As your business grows, your workflows get more complex, your customer base gets wider, and the market gets more and more competitive. How do you keep up with the latest technology, deliver the best customer experience, and keep your shoppers coming back for more? By streamlining the journey from cart to checkout with Amazon Pay. 

Customers aren’t finishing transactions 

With the global cart abandonment rate at nearly 70%, only three out of 10 shoppers actually buy the things they put in their shopping baskets. 1. But what if you could keep them in your checkout flow and create more conversions? 

Sixty percent of shoppers cite account creation or a long, complicated checkout process as a key reason for cart abandonment. 2. Luckily, you can fix common checkout mistakes and see an average of a 35% increase in conversion rate through better design. 3. This correlates to $260 billion U.S. dollars worth of lost orders across the U.S. and EU that could be recovered by making design changes to optimize checkout flows. 

A 2022 Deloitte study revealed that 93% of consumer businesses surveyed were prioritizing investment in digital transformation. 4. Stand out from the crowd by implementing Amazon Pay, a fast and easy payment solution offering an optimized and secure checkout flow. Take advantage of express checkout to reach more loyal customers, attract new shoppers, and help reduce cart abandonment.
