Key Learnings
Details
Why is mobile commerce so successful? The rising numbers of mobile website visits and sales are amazing. Over the past years, users have switched more and more from desktop to tablet and mobile. For some shops, mobile sales are already exceeding desktop sales.
If you take a closer look at the mobile user experience, how it is really to shop on mobile, it becomes less understandable. Some companies did a good job in improving the usability of their desktop websites, but neglected mobile. Furthermore, designing for mobile is a challenge due to restrictions in screen size, and the unpredictable and changing context is distracting attention. What is crucial for a good mobile shopping experience? How can we achieve an emotional experience for the user?
What will the future bring for mobile commerce? Personalization, conversational commerce, …what else?
