Tag, track and analyse

Make sure to check your product pages and checkout process, and look for drop off points and bounce rates.
Allow last minute cart changes on checkout
Whether it’s a last minute decision or to rectify a mistake, it’s important to allow your customers the freedom to edit their cart all the way up to (and including) the checkout. Give the option of removing products and altering the quantity of products in their cart.
