Recent industry reports put shopping cart abandonment rates at anywhere from 20 to 50%. In too many cases, cart checkout processes take too long, require too many clicks and involve too many requests for non-essential information. Shoppers get distracted and distressed, lose interest, leave the site, or simply shop and research at another online store. The result is a huge lost revenue opportunity.

*According to Forrester Research, the average shopping cart abandonment rate among online retailers is 36 percent.
*38 percent of online users do not buy online because they have to register with a site before purchasing. (source: Forrester)
