Why the promise of fast delivery matters

More than 50% of visitors visit bol after 4:00 PM. These customers value fast delivery and continue searching when they see that delivery takes 2 days or longer.

Good to know:

  • A 1-day delivery promise can increase your conversion by 60% compared to a 2-day or longer delivery promise
  • Only 16% of partners currently offer the delivery promise that customers truly want
  • With an 11:59 PM cut-off time, you can still deliver to the customer the next day

In other words: there's a huge opportunity to increase your sales during the holidays.
