\u201ccart abandonment is a term used to describe visitors adding items to their online shopping cart, but exiting without completing the purchase.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n To be fair, many cart abandonments are just a result of how people browse e-commerce sites \u2013 many users will undertake window browsing, price comparison, saving things for later, researching gift alternatives, and so on. Cart abandonment is nearly always unavoidable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To calculate your shopping cart abandonment rate, divide the number of customers that add an item to a shopping cart by the total number of completed transactions. Then, subtract this value from 1 and multiply by 100. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Cart abandonment can not be eliminated. All you have to do is get it lower than your competition. Listed below is the grading system based on cart abandonment rate across multiple industries in 2022. You can compare how you perform against others and strive for as low a rate as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Based on a study done in the retail sector, the following were the most common reasons for cart abandonment:<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Below are the main KPIs to track to understand shopping cart abandonment rates:<\/p>\n\n\n\n With Hippo, you can get insights into these KPIs.

Some customers chase deals. If they can’t find a coupon or promotional code, they will go and look for one elsewhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n According to Statista, a full 8% of customers cite not being able to find a coupon code as the primary reason for abandoning their cart – opting instead to wait until one shows up and try and find a better deal elsewhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can send them coupon codes on WhatsApp along with the link to get back to the cart. WhatsApp is ideal for sending coupons and vouchers reason being it will be definitely read, unlike email which could be missed. And if they decide to buy sometime later, they don’t have to look for a needle in the haystack of emails. The chat will be available a few clicks away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Be sure to add a time frame to the coupon or offer so as to motivate them to buy at the earliest. And you should not always offer coupons otherwise customers will start leaving your carts for the very reason that you will be providing them coupons<\/p>\n\n\n\n Lastly, lack of support is detrimental to shopping cart abandonment rates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Customers expect service and convenience. A study conducted by LivePerson found that 83% of online shoppers want help while they are on site. 51% said they are more likely to purchase if they had customer support during the session.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n You can provide customers with real-time support on the website itself or on WhatsApp. WhatsApp is a better way because even if the app or site is closed, the conversation can continue and customers can visit again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hippo<\/a> can be a one-stop solution for all your customer engagements from managing campaigns to real-time customer support.
