The Digital Shift: Consumer Trust
Realities brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic have led consumers to embrace digital ways to shop and pay, ranging from mobile order-ahead and curbside pickup features to paying in-store using digital wallets and QR codes. Meeting the newfound need for digital options requires retailers to translate their shopping experiences online in a way that fosters trust and loyalty. This makes it imperative for merchants to equip their physical and digital channels with innovative features that not only facilitate a secure and friction-free shopping experience but also help them turn buyers into loyal customers through the pandemic and beyond.
