Abandoned cart – an online retailer’s worst nightmare.

According to Jérémy Pinto, co-founder of French retail technology company JUST, research shows that of the 70% of online shopping carts abandoned in France, half are abandoned due to an overly complex shopping process that often involves creating an account and filling out an account the same information and forms repeated with each purchase.

For eMerchants, this abandonment means an average of 42% of their customers are lost in the process, a heavy price to pay in these tough economic times.

To address these overlooked customer issues, JUST offers a one-click shopping solution that relieves online shoppers of the burden of having to create an account while democratizing the shopping experience for online retailers.

“If this is your first time clicking the ‘Buy Now in One Click’ button, we will ask you to enter your checkout information. And once you’ve filled it out and made your first purchase, you can now use JUST on any online site that offers the solution,” Pinto said in an interview with PYMNTS.

In six months of launch, the one-click shopping solution provider has integrated 60 online brands, including French eShops L’Avant-Gardiste, Puissante and Noo – and according to Pinto, they’ve seen a 30% increase in their conversion rate since then. coupled with an 11% drop in cart abandonment rates.

In terms of competition, Pinto doesn’t think it’s “very tough” in France or Europe more broadly, even with new players entering the market. In terms of markets where they see huge growth potential, the UK tops the list, followed by Western Europe – mainly France, Germany and the Netherlands – and then Southern Europe, where countries like Spain and Italy have fast-growing markets.

However, one factor that cannot be overlooked when doing business in these diverse markets is the problem of the fragmented European market.

“Germans prefer bank-to-bank payments, while the interbank online payment system iDEAL is widely used in the Netherlands, so we need to adapt our product to that [different types of] Payment methods and the specific needs of each market,” he explained.

And with the growing variety of payment options, the focus should no longer be on payments, but on simplifying the purchase process – regardless of how customers pay.

“What we are selling is not payments but experience and the experience [expectation] is the same in every country,” he said. “[The goal is therefore] to embed the maximum number of payment methods in the solution while maintaining the same seamless one-click checkout experience.”

Buy, return, refund quickly

For a region governed by the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which is considered one of the strictest data protection laws in the world, protecting customer data should be a key priority for any company doing business in Europe. Because of this, Pinto emphasized that their solution complies with GDPR standards and that selling customer data is not an option.

“JUST is a co-owner of the data we collect and the main use of this information is simply to fill out the form on the website,” he noted.

He added that while many find the GDPR regulation too strict, that shouldn’t be the case when it comes to informing customers about how their data is being used. He also says that “the GDPR is good for Europe”.

Going forward, the French FinTech startup will continue its work aimed at simplifying interactions between merchants and consumers, with plans to go beyond payments on mobile apps and extend payments to SMS messages or direct Instagram messages.

One area where he also sees significant growth potential is the post-sales experience. Because of this, their future plans include building an application, first for merchants and then for consumers, to track purchases and access a one-click return feature that allows them to easily get a refund.

“Here at JUST we believe that buying and buying are closely related. Amazon has been doing this for many years. You buy very quickly, you are refunded very quickly, [and] You can return your product very quickly,” Pinto points out.

It’s a message he shares with merchants in their network, which is the fact that they won’t get far with the best products or the most sophisticated websites if the shopping experience is poor.

“Consumers won’t come back to your site because what matters most to them is the experience they had and how quickly they were able to check out,” he said.

Amazon, which has always been known for its data-gathering abilities, now wants to provide deeper product insights to third-party brands that sell in its physical stores.

Related Articles

The e-commerce giant has launched Store Analytics, a service that offers brands aggregated and anonymized insights into the performance of their products, promotions and advertising campaigns across Amazon Go and Amazon Fresh locations.

Amazon collects these data points across two of its recent physical retail technology developments, both of which use computer vision to capture real-time shopper movements. One is “Just Walk Out” checkout technology, a network of overhead cameras and shelf sensors that track shoppers as they walk through the store and pick up items before automatically recharging them as they exit. The other is the Amazon Dash Cart, a shopping cart with cameras and weight sensors to automatically log the products placed inside.

Both systems log the purchase with the credit card buyers who are already stored at Amazon.

Insights from Just Walk Out and the Dash Cart can already help Amazon improve the in-store shopping experience by making the store layout easier for shoppers to find their favorite items and discover new ones. Ultimately, this could improve product selection and availability, and also add value through relevant promotions and advertising.

With Store Analytics, brands in these stores now have access to details about how their products are being discovered, considered and purchased, which can further help them make informed decisions regarding merchandising, promotions and advertising campaigns. The Store Analytics dashboard allows brands to see how their products are ranking and performing in each store.

Additionally, advertisers running in-store campaigns such as digital signage will see related performance metrics in their campaign reports.

For the time being, although Just Walk Out has been implemented in select Whole Foods stores, it appears that the data will be collected solely from the Amazon Fresh and Amazon Go concepts.

Amazon allows consumers to opt out for privacy reasons

A company blog post announcing Store Analytics touched on the privacy concerns consumers may have regarding their shopping data. Store Analytics only provides brands with aggregated and anonymized data, which means that data shared with brands is presented as a grouping in all use cases and does not contain any personally identifiable information.

Amazon says it doesn’t share anything that can be linked to an individual buyer. Instead, the company shares totals, averages, and percentages about the performance of products, promotions, and advertising campaigns. For example, the online marketplace may share the percentage of times a brand’s product was pulled off the shelf and then purchased from Amazon.com either during that store visit or later.

“We never share personal information about shoppers, so the data brands receive never includes details like their name, individual browsing data, or individual session details like the time of day they shopped or the store they shopped at have,” Amazon said in the blog. “Additionally, no videos or images of branded buyers will be shared as part of this service.”

However, Amazon allows buyers to opt-out of the service on the Store Analytics website.

The opt-out option is available in the “Submit Your Preference” section of the website, where users select “Do not include my purchase data in Store Analytics” before clicking the “Submit” button. To opt out on a mobile device, consumers can go directly to the Store Analytics website and follow the same steps, or navigate to “Your Account” in the Amazon Shopping app or on Amazon.com in their mobile browser.

In addition, notice of the opt-out is included on in-store signage and email receipts from Amazon Go and Amazon Fresh stores in the United States when shoppers use Just Walk Out technology or Amazon Dash Carts to check out use.

Shoppers who opt out can continue to use Just Walk Out technology and Amazon Dash Carts in Amazon Go and Amazon Fresh stores. However, Amazon does not store or use any data for shop analysis purposes or the associated advertising measurement of future shopping tours for this buyer’s account.

Privacy is a major issue for US big tech firms, and Amazon is no stranger to its business practices with ongoing criticism and run-ins with regulators. In July last year, Luxembourg’s data protection regulator initially fined Amazon $887 million for violating Europe’s GDPR protection laws, but a federal judge later stayed the court order in December.

“We follow Amazon’s long-standing privacy and security policies and approaches. Store Analytics data is stored in a secure zone in the cloud. We always anonymize and aggregate the data before making it available to brands that receive the service,” the company said on the blog. “We know that buyers care about how their information is used and shared, so we’ve put a lot of thought into making this service useful for brands while protecting buyer privacy. We take privacy seriously and all sensitive data is treated in accordance with our longstanding policies.”

July 1, 2022 — A listeria outbreak that originated in Florida has killed one person and sickened nearly two dozen, according to the CDC reported Thursday.

Affected people became ill from January 2021 to June 12, 2022, the CDC said, and “most sick people in this outbreak lived in Florida or traveled to Florida about a month prior to becoming ill.”

So far, the federal agency has not identified a food source as the cause of the outbreak. Health officials are polling people about what foods they’ve eaten. Genetic testing shows people in the outbreak likely got sick from the same food, the CDC said.

The deceased lived in Illinois. Five people became ill during pregnancy and one illness resulted in fetal loss, the CDC said.

The CDC said 23 people were sick and 22 were hospitalized. Twelve sick people live in Florida, New York and Massachusetts each report two sick people. Colorado, Georgia, Illinois, Kansas, Minnesota, New Jersey and Pennsylvania each had one sick person.

The patients ranged in age from 1 to 92 years, with a mean age of 72 years.

“The actual number of sick people in an outbreak is likely higher than the reported number, and the outbreak may not be limited to states with known diseases,” the CDC said. “In addition, recent illnesses may not be reported yet, as it typically takes 3 to 4 weeks to determine if a sick person is part of an outbreak.”

Listeria bacteria live in soil, water, dust, animal feces, and other substances. They can get sick if you eat foods that carry them.

For most healthy people, the infection doesn’t pose much of a threat, even if it makes you sick for a day or two. But listeria is particularly dangerous for pregnant women and their babies, people whose immune systems are not working properly, and the elderly.

Symptoms include diarrhea, nausea, muscle pain and fever.

Amazon is evolving its in-store shopping and payment experience with cutting-edge machine learning (ML) algorithms.

At Amazon’s recent global artificial intelligence (AI) event re:MARS 2022, Dilip Kumar, VP, Physical Retail and Technology, Amazon, discussed how the omnichannel giant is using computer vision and ML algorithms to continuously make things easier and faster deliver in-store shopping experiences for customers.

Below are highlights from Kumar’s presentation on how Amazon applies algorithms to its frictionless shopping technology Just Walk Out, Palm payment solution Amazon One, physical clothing store Amazon Style and smart shopping cart Amazon Dash Cart.

Just go outside
In the case of Just Walk-Out technology, which allows shoppers to skip the checkout line at many Amazon stores, select Whole Foods Market stores and several third-party retail stores, Amazon uses sensors, optics and image processing algorithms. As a result, the company has reduced the number of cameras required in stores using Just Walk Out technology, making them less expensive, smaller and capable of local deep networks.

Amazon’s Just Walk Out sensors and algorithms are designed to detect a wide range of products and differences in shopping behavior in large grocery stores. The company has also increased the variety of environments its algorithms can take into account, using Just Walk Out technology, and third-party vendors.

Amazon One
Initially introduced In two Seattle-area Amazon Go stores in September 2020, Amazon One is designed to allow customers to use their unique Palm signature to check out at a store or present a loyalty card. When developing Amazon One, the retailer needed data to train and test its AI algorithms across demographics, age groups, temperatures, and variations such as calluses and wrinkles unique to one’s palm so the service can correctly determine whose palm was hovering over the device.

When Amazon began building Amazon One, it recognized the limited availability of public datasets consisting of palm and vein images to train the algorithms. So Amazon has advanced existing technologies to create huge amounts of different, realistic synthetic palm and vein images to train the AI ​​models and prepare the solution for a variety of users.

Amazon style
At Amazon Style, Amazon’s physical clothing store, the company developed new algorithms that use a customer’s information — such as a diverse set of recommended items, where the similarity to their current selection is balanced with a diverse set of options.

The system also generates supplementary selections, such as B. A shirt matched with a pair of jeans to create a recommended outfit. In addition, Amazon has created synthetic datasets to mimic variations of real-life shopping scenarios.

Amazon Dash cart
When Amazon built the Amazon Dash Cart, a smart shopping cart that allows customers to skip the checkout line at many of its U.S. Amazon Fresh stores, the company developed a series of computer vision and sensor fusion algorithms to recognize items in motion, including the exact recording of weight and quantity. The image processing algorithms also have tight latency budgets as the shopping cart tracks a customer’s receipt in real time.

“Looking back at the progress my team has made reminds me of Amazon saying, ‘It’s always day one,’ and it’s certainly still day one for us in physical retail and technology ‘ Kumar said in a company blog post. “It feels like we’re just beginning to tackle some of the complex challenges in the world of physical retail, and I’m excited to see what the team does next to push the boundaries of AI.”
