FOR MERCHANTS:
How "Click and Collect" Transforms Your Business:
Getslocal’s "Click and Collect" feature empowers local merchants to:
1. Drive In-Store Sales Growth: When customers come in to pick up orders, it opens up opportunities for additional purchases. Retailers like Primark have reported that over 40% of customers who use "Click and Collect" end up buying more items in-store. By strategically placing promotions or bestsellers near the pickup counter, merchants can capitalize on this "halo effect."

5. Upselling and Cross-Selling Opportunities: When customers collect orders, merchants can recommend complementary products. For instance, pairing a coffee machine order with discounts on coffee pods or offering exclusive bundle deals.
6. Better Inventory Management: Pre-orders through the app provide insights into popular items, helping merchants stock efficiently and avoid overordering.
