HOW TO CREATE UNIFIED CUSTOMER JOURNEYS

The demand for a seamless omnichannel payment experience is pushing companies to integrate online and offline interactions into a unified journey. As businesses navigate this shift, a smooth and unified payment experience becomes the linchpin for customer satisfaction and business growth.

The Omnichannel Imperative

Consumer behavior today is drastically different. Recent surveys indicate that nearly 70-80 percent of customers engage across both online and offline channels. For instance, a shopper might research a product online, visit a store to experience it, and then finalize the purchase through a mobile app. This behavior is no longer the exception but the norm. Fragmented payment systems, disconnected loyalty programs, and operational silos can result in frustrated customers and lost opportunities.

Key Challenges in the Omnichannel Payment Journey

From experience working with businesses across sectors, there exist three fundamental challenges: Fragmented Consumer Profiles: A loyal online shopper may walk into a store, but the system fails to recognize them. The result? Missed opportunities to deliver personalized experiences.

Offline Payment Innovations Lagging: Payment failures, limited payment options, and manual affordability checks (like EMIs) create friction and increase checkout abandonment.

No longer seen as just value-driven alternatives, these labels are reshaping the market with strong consumer loyalty and impressive growth, competing head-on with traditional FMCG leaders.
