This Magic Checkout case study explores how a next-generation checkout solution helped a premium haircare brand streamline its process and boost conversions by building trust and reducing return-to-origin orders.<\/p>\n<p>That solution? Magic Checkout.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a style=\"border-radius: 3px; background: #13418F; padding: 15px; font-weight: 600; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none; color: white;\" href=\"https:\/\/razorpay.typeform.com\/to\/Zuozx1fN?utm_source=Direct&amp;utm_medium=Blog+&amp;utm_campaign=Root+Deep+CS\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" data-schema-attribute=\"\">Get Magic Checkout<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Brand Background: From Clinical Innovation to D2C Excellence<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/therootdeep.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Root Deep<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is a premium haircare brand from Brillare Science Pvt. Ltd., based in Ahmedabad. While Brillare focused on skincare, Root Deep was launched in 2013\u201314 after four years of R&amp;D and over 90 product trials. The result was a patented hair loss treatment, backed by clinical testing on 50 participants. It also proved highly effective against dandruff, setting it apart in the market.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Founded by Jigar Patel, Root Deep was initially a salon-exclusive product. During the pandemic, the brand transitioned to D2C to meet rising demand and reduce dependence on in-person services. Their homecare range allowed customers to access professional care at home.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Early on, customer acquisition was expensive. With a premium price point, building trust took time. But once customers understood the usage cycle and long-term value, the cost began to make sense, similar to investing in a quality product that lasts months.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Root Deep focuses on education and experience. Once customers learn how to use the product, the brand sees strong repeat rates with little need for reminders.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #808080;\">Root Deep offers India\u2019s most powerful patented and clinically studied hair loss solution, one that improves lives. It also provides assurance and confidence to those suffering from hair fall by reducing the stress associated with it. &#8211; Jigar Patel, Founder of Root Deep.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Turning Checkout into a Trust-Building Moment<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What people want most when shopping online is the confidence that the website is trustworthy. As the Root Deep team shared, when someone visits a new brand\u2019s site, it\u2019s easy to spot things that feel off or incomplete. But checkout is one part of the experience that has to feel polished and secure. If a customer doesn\u2019t see a reliable payment partner or is taken through multiple redirects, it quickly creates doubt. In those moments, customers are far more likely to opt for Cash on Delivery instead of placing a prepaid order, especially for high-value purchases.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How Magic Checkout Helped<\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>OTP verification for COD orders<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Traditional checkout lacked OTP for COD, leading to more returns. With Magic Checkout, the return rate dropped to almost nil.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Smoother, faster checkout flow<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fewer redirects and a reliable interface increased confidence in prepaid payments.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Higher prepaid adoption<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Prepaid orders went from just 6 or 7 per day to much higher. On some days, all orders were prepaid.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Support for partial COD<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gave customers more flexibility while improving order completion rates.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Branded Checkout<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A small but effective touch.
