The mobile app doubled Metalshop sales from mobile devices

Why Metalshop implemented a mobile app

Punk, rock and metal fashion lovers increased their online store visits from smartphones and tablets. They also did the shopping on these devices. Since January to July 2015 they raised the mobile sales in online store by 60% compared to the same period in previous year. To acquire a shopping application to the web optimized for mobile devices seemed as a way how to raise this number even more. And it turned out well.

How the application launch affected the sales

Metalshop launched the mobile app on Friday, 23rd July 2015. Nearly a hundred of users downloaded it during Saturday and Sunday even without investing into promotion, and the turnout from mobile devices tripled.

The number of the mobile app users kept rising continuously. In August and September it reached 1,781 (6% of all the mobile visitors). The sales from mobile devices were 156% higher compared to the previous year.

And our December’s profit is twice as high compared to other months. The launch of the mobile app in form of a license seems as a step in the right direction. The time and energy, which would be devoted to creating an app structure, could be assigned to the online store operation itself.[/us_testimonial]

The conversion rate of the app was 9x higher (4,4 %) compared to the online store visits from mobile devices (0,52 %). With regard to installations it was nearly 12%.

What were the mobile sales in August and September like compared to the desktop ones? The turnout generated from desktop devices decreased by 2% in comparison with the same period in previous year. The total sales were 6% higher, thanks to the purchases made from mobile devices.
