Bolt said this partnership is a significant milestone for the retail industry, with retailers now delivering elevated shopping experiences that help drive customer loyalty. The partnership additionally looks to accelerate e-commerce’s digital transformation and thrive in the modern era of online retail.
Alice Steinglass, executive vice president and general manager of platforms at Salesforce, said, “Bolt is a welcome addition to AppExchange, as it accelerates business transformation for customers by offering a frictionless checkout solution for retailers. AppExchange is constantly evolving to connect customers with the right apps and experts for their business needs.”
Justin Grooms, chief executive officer of Bolt, said the retail space has never been a more competitive landscape — with merchants working to increase conversion rates and user satisfaction. “At Bolt, we are excited to collaborate with Salesforce to offer merchants on AppExchange to provide an integrated, efficient checkout process that boosts their e-commerce performance.”
Grooms previously told WWD that a major e-commerce trend he is seeing is the resurgence of “experiential retail…boutique experiences online with a focus on curation, relevancy or personal connection.”
Leading retailers Kendra Scott and Lilly Pulitzer are just some of the brands Bolt has helped improve conversion — through using Bolt, the merchants have increased their revenue, improved customer service and reduced cart abandonment.
“We were able to seamlessly integrate Bolt into our checkout process, preserving our brand’s unique look and feel throughout the shopper journey,” said Brad Power, senior director of digital product and user experience at Kendra Scott. “The ease of implementation has allowed us to enhance the shopping experience while staying true to our brand identity — and the performance impact speaks for itself.”
