YITH WooCommerce Multi-Step Checkout (Premium Plugin):
The YITH WooCommerce Multi-Step Checkout plugin allows you to streamline the checkout process by splitting it into multiple steps. You can set the checkout type that your users prefer: many A/B split tests have proved that online buyers prefer a neat view without too many fields on the same page when ending the checkout process.
You can substantially reduce the percentage of abandoned carts caused by a too long checkout page and with too many fields to fill in. You can reduce the number of steps and the cognitive effort required to the user by combining some steps of the checkout process into one (Billing & Shipping, Order info & Payment).
1. A/B Testing: A/B split testing on checkout pages (analysis made to find out which checkout structure works better on e-commerce sites) has shown that a multi-step layout is the best option for a better user experience during the purchase process. A multi-step structure helps customers feel more comfortable during the payment as they understand which step of the process they are in.
2. 10 Different Layouts: You can choose among 10 different layouts for the timeline, five of them in vertical style and five of them horizontal. Set the layout that best suits your e-commerce website and the one to show to mobile users.
3. Customizable Checkout Page: To make sure that the checkout style can suit every e-commerce theme, you will be able to customize the colors of every step and status (previous, next and current step) and all the texts.
4. Merge billing & shipping Address: Usability tests confirm that a multi-step checkout is much more effective if there are no more than four steps in total. To streamline the process, combine Billing and Shipping Info into one step and Order and Payment Info into another step.
5. Ajax Validation: With the AJAX validation you can prevent customers from going on to the next step unless they have completed all mandatory fields.
6. Disable Shipping: If your products don’t need to be shipped, just disable the Shipping step and it will not show up in the checkout process.
7. Login/Register: You can take advantage of the integration with YITH Easy Login for WooCommerce to effortlessly enhance the user experience and streamline the login and registration process at checkout. If a user enters an email address associated with a customer account, they will be prompted to enter the password to access the existing account. If the email does not exist in the shop database, the user will be able to quickly create an account without abandoning the purchase process.
