Optimizing for a frictionless checkout

This expansion of their successful Q4 2023 collaboration will introduce access to the newly launched Fastlane by PayPal to commercetools customers. The innovative feature aims to streamline the checkout process by allowing authenticated users a one-click experience thus helping merchants boost conversion rates and revenue streams while mitigating cart abandonment. By prioritizing seamless transactions, businesses can elevate the overall customer journey and capitalize on lucrative opportunities in the competitive marketplace.
“At commercetools, we prioritize customer empowerment by offering flexibility in provider and payment method choices, unlike some competitors who restrict consumers by locking them in with more narrow payment options,” said Dirk Hoerig, CEO and Co-founder of commercetools. “With PayPal as a leading and trusted authority in commerce, our partnership aims to enhance shopping experiences and enable enterprises to capture greater wallet share.”
“To be successful in today’s hyper-competitive, constantly evolving market, businesses need the ability to provide their customers with seamless, secure commerce experiences,” said Frank Keller, EVP and General Manager, Large Enterprise & Merchant Platforms Group at PayPal. “As we aim to revolutionize commerce globally, our work with commercetools to bring Fastlane by PayPal to some of the world’s most renowned brands will help enterprises boost sales, attract new customers, and foster lasting loyalty.”
Accelerating B2B innovation
As the B2B commerce sector surges towards a projected $36 billion by 2031, commercetools Chief Product Officer, Mike Sharp, announced on stage its strategic focus on empowering B2B customers to capitalize on this lucrative market growth. The company aims to build on the success of its Q1 launch of commercetools Foundry for retailers by unveiling its latest innovation tailored for manufacturers. The new B2B-specific blueprint leverages commercetools Composable Commerce for B2B, Frontend, and Connect, offering a pre-composed solution that accelerates time to market. By streamlining implementation, commercetools empowers manufacturers to swiftly deploy modern, adaptable buying experiences, driving revenue growth while minimizing decision-making overhead.
“Today, the B2B commerce sector presents immense opportunities for manufacturers, wholesalers, and distributors. However, legacy commerce solutions hinder their progress,” asserted Sharp. “With our latest solution, B2B manufacturers unlock flexibility, streamline operations, and slash implementation time by 30%. This agility is paramount in navigating today’s fast-paced business environment.”
Orbia Building & Infrastructure, Wavin, a plastic pipes manufacturer, leveraged the company’s composable commerce platform to launch 35 new webshops, driving nine-digit revenue growth.
