How Simple Design Adjustments Reduced Return Issues by 50%
In the ever-evolving world of online shopping, a significant challenge faced by many apparel and fashion stores is the soaring return rates, often stemming from issues related to the mobile web experience. This case study explores the journey of one of Yemen’s largest apparel stores as they tackled this problem head-on, and how innovative app development led to a substantial 50% reduction in return rates.
The store’s customer base primarily accessed their offerings through mobile devices, but the mobile web interface was proving insufficient for showcasing product details and facilitating easy product filtering. Many customers were receiving incorrect sizes, leading to a substantial surge in return rates.
The Mobile App Solution:
Recognising the need for a better user experience, the store initially attempted to address the issue with a web based mobile app. However, even popular app builders for platforms fell short in resolving the underlying problem. Frustrated but undeterred, the store sought assistance from external developers and found their way to our platform.
Notably, they developed their website using Shopify.
