Video Tutorial - How to Shorten the Checkout Process


To reduce shopping cart abandonment, you may want to reduce the amount of checkout steps so that your customers can complete their orders faster.

The most effective way to streamline the checkout process is to use the One Page Checkout Module module which comes as part of the Premium Business Ready Plan or can be bought alone for $195 plus installation.

Alternatively there are two free options to reduce the number of checkout stages:

Option 1 : Skip the Shopcreateorder.asp page.
Option 2 : Skip the Shopaddtocart.asp page

You can choose Option 1 or Option 2 or both Options at once.

For Option 1, follow the steps below :


Step 1. Log into your admin and go to Advanced Settings > Software Configuration

Step 2. In the "Search" field, enter : xbypasscreateorder and click Search.

Step 3. In the search result, set the xbypasscreateorder field value to 'Yes' and click Continue.

Now go back to the front store and place a test order.

You will find out the Shopcreateorder.asp page is skipped.

Option 2 Requires you to edit a file.

Please follow the steps below:


Step 1: Open file shopaddtocart.asp using notepad or any text editor.

Step 2: Locate the below code at around line 192-193 :
DisplayForm
end sub

Replace with:

DisplayForm
response.redirect "shopcustomer.asp"
end sub

Step 3: Save the file and upload to your site.

Now go back to the front store and place a test order.

You will find the Shopaddtocart.asp page is skipped.
