The Importance of Customer Self-Service

Advantages of Customer Self-Service for eCommerce

Increased Checkout Completion

Giving customers more ways to pay means they can choose the option that’s easiest for them, increasing the chances they’ll complete the checkout process instead of abandoning their cart.

Clarity Payment Hub™ offers a PCI DSS compliant wallet where clients can save their credit card information, so they don’t have to enter it in each time. It’s a self-service payment option that also enables automatic recurring payments.

Better Opportunity & Convenience

With customer self-service payment options, customers can place orders (and you can collect payments) at any time. This opens up possibilities for customers shopping online from different time zones and those with variable availability.

Even for physical devices like kiosks, a self-service solution lets you give customers around-the-clock access. Whether online or at a physical location, the flexibility that self-service provides increases convenience and opportunity for customers to interact with your site.

More Efficient Processes

Consumers today are more tech-savvy and do more research before buying. Self-service portals are what customers expect, so giving them access to that technology increases efficiency for them and for your business.

It will take them less time to go through the process themselves than it will to get ahold of a staff member and go through each step with them.

Confidence Booster & Ease of Use

Intuitive, easy-to-use self-service payment options give clients the confidence to complete the payment process and find the information they want without needing to call in for assistance.

When everything is smooth and customers can all but instantly figure out how to use your application on their first visit, that’s when you know you’re headed in the right direction.

Appeal to More Customers

If customers can use self-service payment options to set up an automated recurring payment, you’ll be able to attract new customers and get them on board with your brand.

Accept Payments Anytime & Anywhere

Self-service payment technologies help businesses enhance their payment process in terms of efficiency, customer experience, and business opportunities by securely accepting payment options without the need of a staff member.

This means you can accept payments anytime, anywhere, since you aren’t confined to regular business hours. This increases opportunities for consumers to make payments, increases checkout completion on eCommerce websites, and improves efficiency of business operations. That’s why Clarity Payment Hub has customer self-service and more features.

FAQs

• How does a self-service portal increase customer interaction?

  With a self-service portal, your customers can pay invoices, purchase products, view account history, and more at their convenience. Having to call someone to complete a simple task can be a barrier for some people, which means they’ll be less likely to visit your eCommerce store. However, a self-service portal eliminates that barrier and offers better opportunity to interact with your site, plus, people can still call for assistance if they need to.

• How does customer self-service reduce costs?

  When customers can complete tasks themselves on your platform, they don’t need to call staff for everyday matters. This means your staff will spend less time on the phone with customers troubleshooting problems and more time on other matters that help increase revenue. It also means that you won’t have to hire more employees just to service customers.
