Easy checkout

With online shopping moving quickly, convenience is becoming a must for customers. Overcomplicating your check out process can result in lost sales and unsatisfied customers.One would think that fewer steps would make it easier for the customer to check out, but that is not always the case.

Here we are coming up with Easy checkout for J2Store that makes the checkout process quiet easier.

Easy checkout is nothing but an one-page checkout that displays all elements of a standard checkout including basket contents, billing and shipping address, shipping options, and payment information on one page. Originally, one-page checkouts were put into practice in an effort to simplify the check out process with fewer clicks and fewer pages.

It will be easier to complete as less steps can appeal to time-conscious customers.
