Checkout pages are the last part of transaction that confirms sale. They ask customer about their personal information (name, CNIC, credit card info, social security) so they can be billed and their product shipped to them.<\/p>\n
There are many reasons why customers resort to shopping cart abandonment. Sometimes the Checkout is badly optimized with an ill-defined structure. There might be excessive loading time. Some sites require account creation before any sales can be made, due to which customers are fed up and leave. The checkout fields might be too many so the customers get tired.<\/p>\n
The problem is not as important as the solution in this case. It is evident that without practical implementation and analysis of performance and success ratio no solution can be deemed as effective. To test these solutions they are subjected to A\/B testing.<\/p>\n

When a problem presents itself on online web pages (in this case checkout), there are different solutions which can be put into effect. However, their success is based on theoretical models which vary from practical field implementation.<\/p>\n
A\/B testing is the process of developing different web pages with different solutions and putting them in service over time. Factors such as analytics, visitors, leads, conversions, customers and sales are monitored. Thus the most effective solution can be easily pointed out and put in action.<\/p>\n
Although Multistep Checkouts are still commonly used, customers are evolving and have new needs to which quick checkouts such as PrestaShop One Page Checkout can cater to more effectively. Following is a comparative analysis of both approaches.<\/p>\n

This method is the traditional approach to checkouts and has started to become redundant.
