UserReplay was tracking of the new checkout method that utilises PayPal Express from the very first day. The analytics providing has been instrumental in helping BT resolve errors that were preventing customers from successfully completing their purchase. In a single month, BT were able to improve the conversion rate for these customers by over 20%.
Improving Design of Account Creation Process
UserReplay identified that a majority of users who completed a PayPal checkout were not setting up a BT Shop account – despite this being offered on the final confirmation page.
UserReplay identified that users were not engaging with this because it was buried below the fold of the page. BT implemented a design change to move the account creation further up the page and to make it more obvious. This led to an improvement of customers entering their details from 12% of to 53%.
“Changing your checkout flow is always a risk – and often one that can be tricky to understand the full impact until it’s live, testing only gives you so much. Thanks to User Replay we were able to pre-build reporting and be able to review customer journeys from the moment we deployed to ensure we knew the CX impact. Then over time, the data we had available, meant we can could refine the experience to better deliver for our customers, but also commercially.”
