In this product detail page experiment, a number of reassurances were brought out visually in a lined or bulleted way. The 4 reassurances included: free shipping and returns; Made in Germany, 90 Day Returns; and Buy With Invoice (popular in Germany). Impact on revenue per user was measured. The control contained very feint copy (smaller and more subtle) about free shipping.

Product

In this product detail page experiment, reassurances under the add-to-cart button were rearranged. The control contained copy about: free shipping and free returns formatted as two gray boxes, with a variety of payment methods and their corresponding logos underneath.

The variation used a more convention bulleted, line-by-line format. It also contained free shipping and returns, but also elaborated with "100 day returns", an "anti-hole guarantee", and "purchase with invoice" (perhaps more popular in Germany?). Impact on sales was measured.

The Volders experimentation team assumed that adding information about how long it might take to get a cancellation confirmation near a CTA Button would result in higher cancellation requests (the paid service being offered).

The variation contained additional copy translated from German to: "Most of our users receive their cancellation confirmation from <vendor> within 14 days by email or letter."

This experiment attempted to increase the number of leads on a lead-funnel. As the first step, users were being asked to upload a file. The control showed the file types that were allowed, whereas the variation changed the copy to show a number of benefits for taking that action. The text-based benefits included the: receiving feedback, prices and lead times.

Walmart A/B Tests Shipping Choices Vs Shipping Reassurances

A - Mar 31, 2023
B - Mar 31, 2023 IMPLEMENTED

Walmart recently ran an a/b test on their product detail pages that showed shipping information in two different styles. On one hand (here shown as A) shipping options were shown as a button choice. Whereas in the variation, all shipping information was fully expanded and readable bullets. View Leak

+0.5 Evidence

For each pattern, we measure three key data points derived from related tests:

REPEATABILITY - this is a measure of how often a given pattern has generated a positive or negative effect. The higher this number, the more likely the pattern will continue to repeat.

SHALLOW MEDIAN - this is a median effect measured with low intent actions such as initiating the first step of a lengthier process

DEEP MEDIAN - this is derived from the highest intent metrics that we have for a given test such as fully completed signups or sales.
