All Latest 539 A/B Tests

In this experiment, a club subscription duration was preselected to 6 in the variation. The control had no club durations preselected. As a result of preselecting a club duration, a more visible price also appeared at the top (sooner in the variation). Impact on sales was measured.

In this experiment, additional (discounted) products were shown at the top of category listing pages with a link to see more such products ("View All Price Drops"). Impact on overall sales was measured.

This experiment was triggered by a small segment of users who completed the first step of checkout funnel (submitted email, name, phone number), but dropped from checkout and returned to cars catalogue 7 or more minutes later.

In the control, users didn't see any cart icon nor function to resume their checkout flow.

In the variation however, users saw a filled shopping cart icon with resume functionality. Clicking on the icon would guide and redirect users to their latest abandoned stage of their checkout flow.

This experiment started when users would click add-to-cart on product detail pages. In both the control and variation, a modal would appear. In the control the modal contained a "View Cart and Checkout" button that lead users to the cart page. In the variation the modal showed separate "View Cart" and "Checkout" buttons. The a/b test variation also introduced a green confirmation message about the product being added to cart. Impact on transactions and revenue was measured.
 

This was an experiment on the first checkout step where users would enter shipping information. The control had a longer footer with more additional sitewide links and a call to action to a newsletter. The variation removed these elements and kept the focus on the shipping information task. Impact on progression to next step and sales was measured.

In this experiment, the click area of job listing tiles was expanded to the size of the full job tile. In the control, the click area was smaller - mostly only the job headline, along with additional "view more" links on the right hand column. Clicking the tile or headline would open up a new job details page in both control and variation. Impact on progression and membership sales was measured.

In this experiment, users that did not complete a purchase and came back to the homepage were shown two different experiences. In the control, users would see the homepage (essentially having to restart the purchase flow). Whereas, in the variation, users would be shown a "Welcome Back" summary view with the completed steps shown as completed and a quick resume button to the next incomplete step. Impact on completed sales was measured.

In this experiment, the variation transformed an add-to-cart button into a shopping cart one (making it a two step process). The control had an interaction where an add-to-cart button would become a quantity selection and then a shopping cart action (a three step process). In a way, the control kept users in a "dead-end" quantity selection middle state that required clicking the back button to continue the sale. Whereas the variation automatically moved users into the next step (closer towards being able to make a purchase). Impact on sales was measured. 

In this experiment, a progress bar was added to a signup flow of a mental health app. It appeared on numerous steps of a onboarding flow. Impact on signup completions and checkouts was measured.

In this experiment two sections of a form on a single page (control) were broken out into 2 separate steps (variation). The two sections included personal details and shipping information. This step appeared after having received a product recommendation when filling out a questionnaire for a skin care product. Impact on next step progression and purchases was measured.

In this experiment, a section dedicated to choosing gift messages was taken out and separated into its own individial step. The change happened on the first step of a checkout flow and increased the flow by an additional step. Impact on checkouts and total sales was measured.

In this experiment, a floating top navigation was shown with a "Join" button. In the control, the navigation was only visible at the top of the page. Also keep in mind that signup starts were also triggered throughout multiple CTAs throughout the page and from particular job detail pages. The a/b test ran on a listing page of Backstage - a casting call job site. Impact on signups  and checkouts was measured.

In this experiment, hamburger navigation with product links, was removed from the shopping / add to cart page. Tertiary links (How It Works, Guarantee details and support pages) were also removed, while a "Secure Checkout" message was brought into the header. This header version was already present on the next checkout page, and was copied over one step earlier. The idea was to keep customers within the checkout flow. Impact on sales was measured.

In this experiment, a more difficult step of a contract cancelation service flow was rearranged toward a later step. In the variation, the easier step (hypothetically) with personal details and address fields was placed as the first step. Whereas the step with contract or account numbers (hypothetically more difficult) were placed as the second step.

In this experiment, the footer was simplified with multiple elements being removed (catalog request, secondary links, and a guarantee). Additionally, a more prominent phone number was also displayed.

In this experiment, top category navigation (with fly out categories) was removed from the shopping cart of an online store. Impact on sale transactions was measured.

In this experiment, a floating add-to-cart with two product choices (color and size) were added on a product page. This appeared only after scrolling past the existing / embedded product selection buy box.

The floating add-to-cart widget had another layer of complexity in that it allowed customers to make a size and color selection with an expandable fly out. Making a selection would also append the total price to the add-to-cart button label.

Impact on total transactions was measured.

In this experiment, a floating sticky bar was added on product pages. The sticky elements only appeared after users scrolled beyond the fixed buy box  area that is relatively high on the page (visible on the control screenshot). The sticky bar contained three elements: a button to configure up to three product choices, a flavor selection pulldown, and the add-to-cart button. 

In the variation, when users clicked on the flavor pulldown three things happened. First, they were anchored back to the top of the buy box. Second, the floating sticky disappeared. And third, the flavors pulldown automatically expanded (overlapping the original primary add-to-cart button).

The control did not have any of the sticky behaviors.

Impact to total sales was measured.

In this experiment, a question about a customer's reason for purchase was broken out into a separate step and moved earlier in the process. In the control, this question was asked in the final checkout step along with a plan selection (Step 4 of 4). In the variation, this question was shifted as a standalone first step (Step 1 of 5). Impact on completed purchases was measured (for a contract cancellation service in this case).

In this experiment, search functionality was added in the variation, globally on mobile. Impact on sales was measured
