5 strategies to boost the mobile conversion of your ecommerce

Why focus on mobile conversion?

Mobile traffic already represents more than 75% of ecommerce visits in Spain, according to the Ecommerce Spain 2024 Study. However, the mobile conversion rate is still below the desktop channel.

This means there is a huge untapped opportunity: if you optimize the mobile experience, you can increase your sales without increasing your recruitment budget.

In this article we share 5 practical strategies to increase mobile conversion in ecommerce, with real data and the success story of Condis, a supermarket chain that has boosted its app channel with Reskyt technology.

1. Facilitates repurchase in two clicks

One of the common brakes on the mobile channel is reorder friction. Apps allow the user to quickly access their history and repeat orders with just two clicks.

This functionality is especially effective in highly recurring verticals such as food, beauty or health.

Fact: Brands that enable quick in-app repurchase increase monthly purchase frequency by 42%(Key Mobile App Statistics 2024).

2. Automate push notifications at the right time.

Email is slow and massive. On the other hand, well-targeted push notifications generate up to 10 times more open rates and are ideal for alerting about promotions, restocking or abandoned carts.

  • Segment by profile, frequency, average ticket or location.
  • Use automated triggers by product, time or behavior.

With segmented push you can avoid cold or generic emails. The app channel allows you to speak to each customer when they need it, with relevant promotions, expiration alerts or usage tips. This generates value, not noise. In fact, according to OneSignal, push notifications can increase retention by 88% in health and wellness apps(Mobile App Benchmarks 2024).

3. Optimize the checkout for mobile

68% of mobile abandonments occur during checkout, mainly due to long forms, card errors or slow loading times.

  • It offers one-touch payments (Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal).
  • Store secure payment methods in the customer's profile.
  • Avoid unnecessary intermediate steps.

Fact: Optimizing the checkout process can increase mobile conversion by up to 35%(Ecommerce Spain 2024 Study).

4. Personalize the experience from the home page

In an environment of information overload, relevance is everything. A well-structured app allows you to display products, banners or sections tailored to the user's history and preferences.

This reduces the decision time and increases the conversion rate.

Fact: Personalization in the app home increases average order value by 29%(State of Mobile 2024).

5. Become a loyalty channel, not just a sales channel.

Apps should not only close the sale, but build a lasting relationship. Integrate into your app:

  • Point programs or visual rewards.
  • Exclusive content per user profile.
  • Early access to VIP releases or discounts.

Fact: Apps with loyalty features increase monthly retention by 55% compared to those without(Loyalty Program Statistics 2025).
