Buy-Online-Pickup-in-Store (BOPIS)
Get your own BOPIS or BORIS offering off the ground. Only 23.5 percent of Canadian retailers currently have BOPIS or Click and Collect capabilities. Half of respondents in the US used a buy-online-pick-up-in-store (BOPIS) service in the last 12 months.
The practice of offering BOPIS has grown as shoppers become too busy to browse items in-store and are more comfortable buying online. BOPIS allows retailers to blend the online and in-store experience to engage with customers while offering a more convenient way to shop.
When it comes to BOPIS, it’s important for retailers to create convenience by enabling customers to complete purchases online or in-app, simultaneously selecting the time and store location to pick-up the purchased products.
