Science And The Art of Improving Payment Conversion
Submitted Feb 13, 2017

Intermediate
“Payment Conversion” is the ratio of the number of successful payments to the number of payment attempts. It plays a critical role in the success of a product and influences the sustainability of business. If a product delivers a seamless payment experience to first time customer, then the business will enjoy good retention rate. While product managers and engineers do realize the importance of high conversion rate, there is no systematic plan to achieving that. As a result, conversion improvement exercises, unfortunately, end up being the snake-oil job and random hit-or-miss changes. This talk goes in depth into aspects - product, technology, and design - of funnel improvement and presents a recipe for delivering a magical customer experience in payments. The focus here is on Indian consumer ecosystem, specifically second-factor authentication; mobile users and working with not so good internet speeds.
