Offering multiple payment options: a boost for your conversions

Choosing the right payment solution is essential for the success of your online store. Today’s consumers are more demanding than ever—they expect to see their preferred payment method and are increasingly turning to installment payment options, especially in times of economic uncertainty. That’s why using two complementary payment modules can be a smart move to boost your conversion rate.


Increase conversions by offering as many payment methods as possible

Even today, 3 out of 4 shoppers abandon their cart before completing checkout. Among the top reasons for cart abandonment, limited payment options remain a major issue. Credit cards, PayPal, bank debits, instant transfers, local solutions—customers want flexibility.

This becomes even more important when expanding into new markets. Why risk losing a sale by not accepting Bancontact in Belgium, MyBank in Italy, or Przelewy24 (P24) in Poland—especially after investing time and budget to reach those customers?

With a solution like PrestaShop Checkout, you can offer up to 10 payment methods across 20 currencies. Developed in partnership with PayPal, this all-in-one, fully secure, omnichannel module gives you centralized and simplified management from one back office. And of course, the checkout interface is fully customizable

Boost your average order value with installment payments

BNPL (Buy Now, Pay Later) is quickly gaining popularity.

Across most European countries, 6 out of 10 consumers use installment payments. In today’s economy, offering a “pay over time” option is a real advantage. For your customers, it means they can:

  • Treat themselves

  • Make a spontaneous purchase

  • Take advantage of limited-time offers (Black Friday, Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, etc.)

With an installment payment module like Alma, you can offer your customers the option to pay in 2, 3 or 4 installments. You get paid in full immediately, with secure transactions. And you choose who covers the fees—your business, the customer, or split between both.
