Why Seamless commerce?

Why Seamless commerce?

Retail has changed. It’s no longer about having an online store or a physical shop – it’s about combining both to meet customers wherever they are. While platforms like Shopify and Wix kicked off the online store trend, and traditional POS systems have been managing sales in physical stores, neither is fully equipped to handle both worlds together.

Moreover, in a world where shopping is as diverse as it is digital, consumers no longer follow a single path to purchase. They're everywhere – flipping between online and offline realms, expecting the same quality experience whether they're on their phones, tablets, laptops, or walking into a brick-and-mortar store. They want freedom, they want options, and above all, they want seamlessness.

That's where UrbanDart shines, merging online and offline sales into one smooth customer experience.

The Fragmented Reality

Traditional e-commerce is fraying at the edges. It's fragmented, with a glaring divide between online convenience and the tactile richness of in-store shopping. Retail brands are grappling with this dissonance, striving to integrate platforms like Shopify that are designed with a one-dimensional approach to commerce.

Most people still enjoy in-store shopping, but they often check out products online before they buy. In fact, recent studies show that most in-store purchases start with an online search. However, if customers can’t move smoothly from online browsing to in-store buying, they get frustrated. This is what many businesses using traditional systems face – they can’t connect their online data with their in-store sales effectively.

Retail isn't just changing; it's evolving into something new. Today's shoppers expect to move seamlessly between online browsing and in-store buying. But many businesses are stuck using separate systems for each, leading to a disjointed customer experience. In fact, research shows that while 70% of shoppers use a smartphone to research before buying in-store, they often face inconsistencies between the online information and the physical store experience.

The Shift

Consumer behavior has shifted. With a click, they’re online; with a step, they’re in-store. Their journey meanders through digital catalogs, social media, and physical aisles. Yet, most retail solutions falter at delivering a unified narrative across these touchpoints.

Shopify and Wix were great for starting an online shop, but as retail evolves, the gap between a store’s online presence and its physical one is becoming a problem. UrbanDart is designed to fill this gap. We offer a smart, flexible system that updates in real-time and keeps everything in sync, whether you’re selling online, offline, or both.

The Proof

Brands like Apple, Ikea, Decathlon, Walmart, Puma, Pizza Hut, Nykaa, PepperFry, LensKart, Sephora and CaratLane has successfully implemented omni-channel experiences. For Walmart, this move saw a 22% increase in sales in 2022. Using customer data from both online and offline sources to personalize marketing messages and provide product recommendations has also led to 15% increase in sales for Walmart.
