While there are many popular e-commerce platforms, few have the native features that have really gained popularity over the years with consumers. One example of this is the subscription box, where a company brings together a themed box that’s mailed to a subscriber who pays a monthly fee. You’ll find these almost everywhere nowadays and I even subscribe to a few myself.
While there are extensions, add-ons, or third-party integrations that offer these, they’re not easy to configure and can cause a lot of logistical issues downstream. Imagine ordering a subscriber box and then having no clue when the contents would be combined and actually get delivered… that’s a customer retention killer!
AmeriCommerce
