If you run an e-commerce store, you’ll know that offering multiple payment methods to your customers is always a good option. The lack of payment options is one of the major reasons why shopping carts are abandoned. Until a few years ago, online merchants could only accept credit and debit cards. However, the digital world has revolutionised many aspects of our lives.
In order to succeed in e-commerce, you must keep your customers at the forefront of your mind every step of the way. Essentially, the better your e-commerce business understands your target market’s wants and desires, the more likely it is to succeed. Understanding your customers’ preferred payment methods is essential to your business’s success. Thus, being accommodating to your client’s preferences is a must!
Furthermore, offering an option to buy now and pay later is quite enticing to the modern shopaholic and can really help increase your sales! If your website is based in Europe, you may have definitely heard of Klarna.
