How to Reduce Cart Abandonment for Your SaaS

게시일: 8월 8, 2025

To reduce cart abandonment for your SaaS, implement a multi-faceted plan that optimizes the checkout process, builds trust, ensures price transparency, and recovers incomplete orders through follow-up communication. This is a recurring issue for online software sales, where a high SaaS abandoned cart rate—which the Baymard Institute places at roughly 67.75% across eCommerce—translates directly to lost revenue. This guide details a systematic process to both prevent users from leaving the checkout page and re-engage those who have already left, turning a potential lost sale into a new subscription.

1단계

Optimize the Checkout Flow for Simplicity and Speed

The primary goal of the checkout page is to complete a transaction with minimum friction. Every additional field, click, or second of loading time increases the probability that a potential customer will abandon their cart.

 

First, enable a guest checkout option. Forcing account creation before a purchase is a major hurdle. A user who is still evaluating your software is unlikely to commit to creating a password and filling out a profile.

 

다음으로, conduct a field audit of your checkout form. Ask yourself these questions for every single field:

 

  • Is this information absolutely essential to process the payment and deliver the software?
  • Can I collect this information after the purchase is complete, during onboarding?
  • Does this field create uncertainty for the user (e.g., asking for a phone number without explaining why)

 

After asking these questions, your goal is to remove every field that is not required for the transaction. A faster checkout experience only requires the essentials: an email address, a name, and payment details.

 

마지막으로, consider the format of your checkout itself. The way the checkout is presented can also reduce friction.

 

  • Pop-up or iframe Checkout: This keeps the user on your main product page while they pay. It feels less disruptive and is excellent for quick, simple purchases.
  • 인앱 체크아웃: For desktop or mobile applications, this is the most seamless option. It allows users to purchase upgrades or licenses without ever leaving the application environment.
  • Dedicated Checkout Page: The traditional approach, which redirects to a separate page. This can be effective, but it is important that the page is highly optimized, fast-loading, and visually consistent with your brand.

Build Unshakable Trust and Security

Since the digital shopping experience can feel impersonal, you must proactively address a customer’s security concerns.

According to industry reports, 25% of U.S. online shoppers feel that a lack of security for their financial and personal data is a barrier to shopping online. Instead of using complex IT jargon, use simple, powerful reassurances.

Place visual trust signals prominently near the final call-to-action button. This includes SSL certificate badges, accepted payment logos (Visa, Mastercard, PayPal), and money-back guarantee seals.

Use Transparency in Pricing and Payments

Unexpected costs are one of the leading reasons for cart abandonment. The price a SaaS customer sees on your pricing page must be the price they see at the final checkout step. Any deviation breaks trust and causes users to leave before completing the transaction.

 

Be upfront about all charges. If you are required to collect global SaaS sales tax, display it clearly before asking for payment information.

 

Example: Pricing Display

Ambiguous Display (Avoid)

Transparent Display (Use)

가격 투명성 외에도 결제 유연성은 특히 해외 판매의 맥락에서 고객의 구매 결정에 영향을 미칠 수 있습니다. 이러한 고려 사항은 허용되는 결제 수단의 다양성과 제공되는 가격 모델의 구조라는 두 가지 주요 영역으로 확장됩니다. 독일의 Giropay 또는 네덜란드의 iDEAL과 같은 신뢰할 수 있는 현지 결제 옵션을 찾지 못하는 고객은 결제가 불편하거나 신뢰할 수 없다고 생각하여 장바구니를 포기할 수 있습니다. 마찬가지로 유연한 가격 모델을 제공하면 다양한 사용자 요구를 수용할 수 있습니다. 표준 구독이 많은 사람들에게 적합하지만 다음과 같은 대안을 제공합니다. 사용 기반 청구, 계층형 플랜또는 one-time payments appeals to different customer segments who want an option that best fits their budget and expected use of the software.

Deploy a Strategic Abandonment Recovery Sequence

Even a perfectly optimized checkout cannot prevent all abandonment, such as a dropped internet connection or a real-world distraction. For these situations, a strategic email follow-up sequence serves as a communication bridge to re-engage potential customers who have shown clear purchase intent. The foundational requirement for this recovery effort is obtaining the customer’s email address early in the checkout flow. Without a point of contact, a lost visitor cannot be re-engaged.

PayPro Global이 어떻게 도울 수 있나요

A feature like Instant Drop Notification (IDN) is designed for this purpose. It captures and transfers lead data to you in real-time as soon as a user enters their email and then leaves the page. This is a core component of a successful SaaS 매출 복구 strategy, because it provides you the opportunity to trigger your follow-up sequence immediately.

A one-size-fits-all email campaign is less effective than a tailored approach. By considering the potential reasons a customer might have left—whether due to technical friction, price sensitivity, or simple distraction—you can create your messaging to address their specific hesitation. The following methodology provides a framework for aligning your email strategy with common abandonment scenarios:

 

If you suspect the primary reason is…

Your email strategy should focus on…

Technical Issues / Product Confusion

Offering support and direct guidance (Day 1 focus).

Price Sensitivity / Comparison Shopping

Highlighting value and providing clear incentives (Day 2 & 3 focus).

Simple Distraction / Lack of Time

Gentle reminders and creating soft urgency (Day 2 focus).

 

Here is an actionable three-day sequence:

 

Day 1: The Customer Support Email

 

  • From: Customer Support <[email protected]>
  • Subject: “A question about your order?” or “Need help with your purchase?”
  • Body: “We noticed you started an order for [Software Name] but didn’t complete it. We just wanted to check if you encountered a technical problem or had a question we could answer. You can resume your order here: [Link to Pre-filled Cart]. Or, simply reply to this email for help.”
참고

Sending this from a real support address with a personal signature reinforces that you are there to assist, which builds trust.

Day 2: The Reminder Email

 

  • Data: SaleCycle statistics show that almost half (48.1%) of cart abandoners open reminder emails, and a third (33.3%) of clicks from them lead to a purchase.
  • Subject: “Your [Software Name] cart is expiring” or “Still thinking it over?”
  • Body: “Your selected products are waiting for you. We have saved your cart, and you can complete your purchase by clicking the link below. As a courtesy, here is a 10% discount that will be automatically applied.”

Create urgency. “Please note that your cart and this offer will expire in 48 hours. Place your order soon to lock in your items and discount.”

Day 3: The Final Offer Email

 

  • Subject: “Last Chance: A special offer on [Software Name] for you”
  • Body: “This is our best offer. We understand that budget can be a factor, so we’d like to offer you a 25% discount on your entire order. This is a 기간 한정 제안 that expires tonight. Use code: SAVE25″
참고

This directly addresses price sensitivity. Use a unique coupon code to track the effectiveness of this campaign.

결론

SaaS 비즈니스의 장바구니 포기 문제 해결은 네 부분으로 구성된 꼼꼼한 접근 방식을 필요로 합니다. 첫째, 간결성, 속도, 보안 및 절대적인 가격 투명성에 중점을 두어 결제 과정을 사전에 최적화해야 합니다. 둘째, 시간이 정해지고 전략적으로 구성된 이메일 후속 조치를 통해 미완료 주문의 일부를 사후적으로 복구할 수 있습니다. 이러한 단계의 효과는 특정 고객 행동 및 비즈니스 목표에 맞춰 조정하는 데 달려 있습니다. SaaS 고객이 이탈하는 핵심 이유를 해결함으로써 주저함을 수익으로 전환할 수 있습니다.
