Losing Sales at Checkout? High Shipping Costs Could Be Why
Sticker shock at checkout? High shipping fees are quietly destroying your online sales.
Did you know that nearly 1 in 2 online shoppers abandon their cart because of higher-than-expected shipping costs?
According to the Baymard Institute, 48% of buyers say hidden or high shipping charges at checkout are the main reason they walk away from a purchase.
That’s a lot of lost revenue – simply because of high shipping charges.
