Cart abandonment is a big issue among e-commerce websites and it is causing serious problems for online businesses. These days, it is expected that 70% of UK online shoppers will abandon their carts and this trend is growing, with the average abandonment rate reaching 73.6% in the first quarter of 2013. However this is not the worst of it and some industry areas have higher rates than others; an example of this is online mobile phone sales where there is as much as a 97% abandonment rate observed among shoppers.
There are a number of factors that can make a person abandon their cart. Things such as hidden charges or unexpected costs that are added on during the final stages of a sale are common reasons for abandoning one’s shopping. The trend can also be traced to a certain time of the day or influenced by external factors, such as shopper mood. Regardless of the reason however, all of these abandoned carts translate to lost revenues for the online business. Maintaining a website costs money, especially if it has been especially designed to include features which attract customers. Therefore, losing customers at the selling stage puts all these efforts in vain and can result in financial strain.
