IMRG recently reported that 48% of UK shoppers abandon purchases because of poor delivery options. That’s nearly half of your transactions lost! We all know the frustration of returning home to find a carriers calling card, with the only option of getting your precious item involving an inconvenient journey to a depot.
Carriers have responded and now offer a wide portfolio of delivery options from timed slots, click and collect locations and weekend deliveries. Savvy retailers recognise the need to offer these to consumers, or they risk losing custom to those who do. Historically, the barriers have come from identifying which services to offer and the ongoing costs to develop and maintain these on your website. GFS have resolved the issue, with the launch of their Checkout software and its FREE to all online UK retailers.
