General queries

How does cart abandonment affect my business?

Cart abandonment will negatively affect your business because it means consumers are not completing the checkout process on your online store. Take a look at our guide on reducing cart abandonment and increasing conversions.

Why is my conversion so bad?

A conversion rate is the number of declines divided by the number of transactions. Declines happen for many reasons including insufficient funds, card not on 3DS, payment method not authorised, etc. A normal conversion rate is between 85% to 100%.
