One-Click Checkout with EP Payments Boosts Conversions & Checkout Speed

written by Tamra Gray

Customer expectations are escalating rapidly, and what people learn to love in one industry—like effortless food delivery—increasingly defines what they expect from other industries. These ever-shifting expectations put pressure on businesses to meet their customers where they are—delivering products faster, cheaper, and more seamlessly than ever.

Most checkout experiences have upwards of 18 fields, adding to a long, complicated checkout process and giving customers the perfect opportunity to abandon their carts. According to the Baymard Institute, 70% of customers will leave when the checkout process takes too long. Other research finds that most sites only need eight form fields for a checkout flow. Watch our webinar to learn how to overcome the five common checkout mistakes that over 90% of brands make.

At Elastic Path, we obsess over checkout optimization, to help brands improve their conversion rates continually. We’re thrilled to offer one-click checkout for all businesses using EP Payments, powered by Stripe, at no extra cost.
