The NEXT BASKET platform ensures that ecommerce stores allow customers to use digital wallet payments for online purchases. The digital wallet feature integrates into your e-commerce shop for people to make cashless, cardless, and contactless online payments on their mobile devices.

Accepting digital wallet payments becomes much easier to manage with NEXT BASKET. The e-wallet works as a place to accumulate funds from returned orders. As a result, returns are less of a financial impact.

The digital wallet can also link to your loyalty program. When customers make purchases, they earn bonus points, redeemable for future purchases. It expands the payment options available for consumers.

Ready-to-use e-wallet in the e-shop

An electronic wallet connected to your online store is available for account users. They simply create a profile and receive a personal e-wallet, which is a digital form of payment.

Customers appreciate that this type of digital wallet payment method doesn’t link to a credit or debit card. Funds in the wallet are from previous returns or loyalty points, and shoppers decide how to use these in your store.

These payment exchanges are fast and easy. They can be a key differentiator for your brand in attracting and retaining customers. Having such a solution is part of modern mobile commerce and improves the customer experience.

Cashless and cardless payments online

With an electronic wallet, your customers have access to funds to make cashless and cardless payments. The amount in the digital wallet is only available for purchases in your online store. 

Since everything occurs in your ecosystem, it’s an excellent payment method with no bank account details needed. Balances from returns are now back to you, and there are no fees you would typically pay in accepting credit and debit cards from external digital wallet apps.

Accumulate amounts from returned orders

With an integrated digital wallet, ecommerce businesses use flexible options when it comes to product returns. In traditional interactions, customers get a refund, and you have costs associated with fees and restocking.

With NEXT BASKET digital wallets, ecommerce stores can mitigate these losses. 

You can also determine parameters around returns and offer customers free product return shipping. Should the product not work out for the customer, the amount paid goes into their virtual wallet as an e-voucher. You can then influence future payments and reduce cart abandonment.

Reuse of points in the online store

Establishing a loyalty program for your customers allows them to collect points that convert to a dollar amount for use on future purchases. It’s a benefit for you and consumers. 

The money loop remains within your online store with e-wallets functioning as an commerce boarding pass.

Long-term customers and higher engagement rates

Keeping customers loyal to your brand requires many factors. Your products must remain high quality, and customer service has to be consistent and reliable. These things ensure higher engagement and retention.

A digital wallet and loyalty program can help you meet these goals. They support building long-term relationships with shoppers. It can also help you learn more about their spending preferences, which yields more personalized offers.

Customers can access their virtual wallets on mobile and desktop. Making them available on smartphones enhances the mobile experience. Stay ahead of consumer preferences by adding this feature.

Transparency, accountability, and trust

When you integrate digital wallet payments into your NEXT BASKET online store, you ensure customers have:

  • Transparency regarding how they accumulate and use funds
  • Accountability related to all ecommerce transactions  in their account
  • Trust in your ecommerce site, brand, and products
