One-Click Checkout in the Indian Context

In India, most payment methods cannot truly be one-click due to the requirement for additional validations during payment processing. 

For instance, card authorizations typically require end customers to verify transactions using a One-Time Password (OTP) as mandated by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). Similarly, UPI transactions require a UPI PIN for authentication purposes. 

Therefore, while the term “one-click checkout” is used, it is more of a streamlined and expedited checkout process, and this expedited checkout is commonly coined as one-click checkout.

One-Click Checkout- Understanding the Conversion Problem  

On one side, there are big players like Amazon and Flipkart, using the popular one-click checkout feature thanks to their huge customer base and tons of data knowledge. Their conversion rates are high at 10%.

On the other side are the smaller D2C (Direct-to-Consumer) brands with smaller audiences and less optimization experience. Their conversion rates are only 2%, much lower compared to the giants.

But here’s the exciting part – one-click checkout is like a powerful tool for these smaller brands, serving as a key element. With it, D2C brands can offer a smooth shopping experience just like the big players. It’s not just a cool feature; it’s a must-have.

In this eCommerce story, finding balance is crucial. One-click checkout is a beacon of hope, a strong strategy to help D2C brands grow and keep customers happy, all while striving for better conversion rates.

And not having one-click checkout means losing out on a lot of sales. Top brands across different categories, for example, Fireboltt in electronics, VS Mani in food & beverage, and Isak Fragrance in perfumery, have adopted one-click checkout offered by Razorpay Magic Checkout and have seen the power of this feature and its impact on conversions.

Why Does One-Click Checkout Matter?

Simplifies the Checkout Process for Customers

Traditional checkout methods involve multiple pages and steps, resulting in a lengthy and complex process. In contrast, one-click checkout streamlines the entire process into a single step, significantly reducing time and simplifying the experience.

What’s commonly seen on checkout pages is that a customer has to fill out multiple forms. As per Baymard, there are 11.8 form fields a customer has to fill on average before actually completing a purchase. Now, that’s tedious and one of the reasons for cart abandonment.

In the old ways of online shopping, customers often had a tough task: making accounts and going through a complicated login process. But look! The one-click checkout, like a wizard’s spell, gets rid of this need. It lets customers buy things quickly, without the hassle of making an account.

Saving time and effort is super important. Every second saved is like a shield against customers leaving, a magical protection against them going away.

Reduces Shopping Cart Abandonment Rates & Improves Sales

According to Baymard Institute, the average cart abandonment rate is 70%. And one of the main reasons for cart abandonment is the complicated checkout process.

Cart abandonment, a common issue in online shopping, happens when customers add items to their carts but leave the website without making a purchase.

But worry not, because one-click checkout is like our hero, simplifying the process. It eliminates the need for long forms and complicated account creation, making the buying process straightforward. Customers, free from frustration, quickly complete their purchases without any hassle.

And as the process becomes easy, the temptation for impulse buying grows. This encourage customers to spend more, resulting in a boost in sales in the online shopping adventure.

Also, 18% of customers abandon their carts when they find the checkout process complicated. Hence, by minimizing the steps to complete the checkout process, an online store will increase their chances of customers shopping from them, meaning increased business revenue!

Boosts Customer Loyalty and Repeat Purchases

By saving customers’ information and purchase history, one-click checkout can provide a more personalized experience for customers. This can build a stronger relationship between the customer and the online store, increasing their loyalty and encouraging them to become repeat buyers.

In addition, one-click checkout can create a sense of familiarity and trust between the customer and the eCommerce business. By allowing returning customers to bypass the checkout process and use their saved payment and shipping information, the eCommerce business shows that it values and recognizes their customers. This can create a positive impression on the customer and increase the probability of them returning to the same store for future purchases.  

Helps to Reduce Human Errors in the Checkout Process

One-click checkout reduces the chances of human errors by minimizing the manual data entry work required from the customer during the checkout process. With traditional checkout methods, customers are required to fill in their personal, payment, and shipping information manually. The manual work can increase the chances of human errors, such as typing errors, inputting incorrect contact or shipping information, etc. 

However, with one-click checkout, every detail gets prefilled, meaning customers only need to click on the checkout button and complete their order. One-click checkout takes care of filling out tedious forms.  

Facilitates Mobile Shopping and Purchases

Mobile devices have smaller screens and less space to display information, making the checkout process challenging for customers. One-click checkout provides a user-friendly experience by displaying only the necessary information and making it easy for customers to navigate and complete their purchases on a mobile device.

One-click checkout can offer payment options optimized for mobile devices, such as mobile wallets like Google Pay, UPI, etc. These payment options make it easy for customers to complete their purchases quickly and securely on a mobile device.

By simplifying the checkout process, saving time, providing a user-friendly experience, and offering payment options optimized for mobile, one-click checkout can facilitate mobile shopping and purchases and make the overall shopping experience more convenient for mobile users.
