Why Rally is the ideal Bolt alternative for your ecommerce business

In today’s cut-throat ecommerce world, customers expect a seamless checkout experience that is quick and easy to use. Yet, the average checkout abandonment rate remains high at around 60%. At Rally, we understand that a smooth checkout experience is key to boosting conversion rates and increasing sales.

That’s why our checkout was designed with conversion optimization and UX best practices in mind. Our layouts are clean and optimized for different device types – with a single column for mobile and two columns for desktop – making it easier for shoppers to complete their purchases. By having a clean and simple form that automatically shows the right layout based on device type, we help increase conversions, something Bolt’s modal design can’t do.

Our checkout also allows for quick editing without any disruptive pop-ups, allowing the entire experience to blend seamlessly with your site and brand. Fields collapse once filled out, reducing the need for scrolling and making it faster for shoppers to complete their purchases.

Each step of the checkout process is clearly understandable and easy to navigate, making the entire process a breeze for shoppers. This streamlined experience reduces checkout abandonment and improves conversion rates for your store.

In comparison, Bolt’s checkout UI has some critical UX flaws. Their pop-up layout can be disruptive and confusing for shoppers, especially on mobile devices. Additionally, their multi-column layout on mobile can be hard to understand and lead to a clunky experience. Bolt also doesn’t allow users to edit fields without navigating back, which can be frustrating and time-consuming for the shopper.

At Rally, we prioritize a streamlined and optimized checkout experience that focuses on your customers’ needs. By implementing Rally, you can provide your customers with a smooth and easy checkout experience that improves conversion rates and increase sales. 

Providing customers with a seamless checkout experience is essential for increasing conversions and revenue. A one-click checkout for vaulted users is key to winning quick sales by eliminating distractions. Rally’s vault gives you access to thousands of customers ready to shop your site with just one click.

With 35% of online shoppers using digital wallets like PayPal, Apple Pay, and Google Pay, Rally integrates with these and other payment options to make checkout a breeze. We prominently display these payment options at the top of your checkout page for easy access, rather than hiding them with small icons.

At Rally, we understand the importance of maintaining trust with your customers when it comes to processing payments. That’s why we ensure a secure checkout with our team monitoring the status of the Rally checkout 24/7 and being available to provide support to ensure that your checkout process runs smoothly all the time.

With Rally, you get access to the Rally vaulted network with a one-click checkout that seamlessly fits into your website and helps you convert more customers while providing a more profitable investment than any of the other Bolt alternatives.

Repeat purchases are essential for any business, but there’s another crucial aspect of the checkout process that often gets overlooked. After customers complete their purchase, what happens next? Typically nothing. However, you can take advantage of this space to offer customers additional products or services related to their purchasing behavior.

By reusing the payment token generated during checkout, accepting a personalized offer is just one click away for the user and only one line item on your sales ledger. This is unique to Rally as a built-in feature to the Rally checkout.

With post-purchase offers, you have the power to increase your average order value (AOV) in countless ways. Offer complementary products, reward loyal customers with discounts, introduce new product lines, and even promote subscriptions. The possibilities are endless, and there’s no friction or risk to the initial sale along the way. 

Replacing your checkout can be a daunting task, that’s why we built a checkout replacement that is easy to integrate and we help you do just that. Bolt's lengthy and complicated implementation process has been a major pain point for many of its customers.

Unlike Bolt, which charges 1%+ for both checkout and the required fraud protection, Rally charges only 0.5%, offers fraud protection as an optional addition, and does not require a minimum GMV threshold. The Rally checkout comes with the post-purchase offers (PPOs) feature which increases your average order value (AOV), in addition to other features like buy-now buttons, checkout links, elements for headless setups, and much more. Not only is Bolts pricing significantly higher, but the checkout is also their full product whereas, with Rally, the checkout is just the first piece of your full checkout potential.
