Merchants can speed up their customer journey by adding accelerated payment methods to your Smart Cart! This can be incredibly helpful from a conversion perspective!
What is Accelerated Checkout (Shopify Definition)?
Accelerated or express checkouts save customer payment and shipping information so that returning customers can more quickly complete payment for their orders. When a customer returns to a store that offers an accelerated checkout method, their information is automatically filled in at checkout.
Some accelerated checkout methods can use dynamic checkout buttons on product pages. By using dynamic checkout buttons, customers can skip the cart and go directly to the checkout from the product page, using the selected accelerated checkout method. Learn how to show dynamic checkout buttons on your online store.
You can activate accelerated checkout buttons on your Shopify checkout for Shop Pay and for other payment providers that offer the options, including Apple Pay, Google Pay, Amazon Pay, and PayPal. To learn more about PayPal's accelerated checkout options, refer to supported PayPal providers.
According to Shopify, Shop Pay increases checkout speed by 4x and checkouts going through Shop Pay have an average checkout-to-order rate of 1.72x times higher than those going through regular checkouts, meaning more Revenue for your store!
Note
If you sell subscription products, then accelerated payment methods and wallets such as Apple Pay, PayPal Express, Shop Pay, and Google Pay can be used at some stores.
