According to OrderDynamic\u2019s Omni-1000 Canada Report, only 23.5% of Canadian retailers currently have a BOPIS program in place, and only 50% advertise this service on their homepage. That is a missed opportunity, as a JDA Software consumer survey in the US found that BOPIS use in the last 12-months was up 44% from a 2015 consumer survey. The same JDA survey found that 46% of respondents prefer digital channels and all respondents were in agreement that the most important thing is a quick and easy shopping experience, while 3 of 4 respondents said speed and ease is more important than a personalized experience. The driver behind BOPIS for 40% of the respondents is to avoid home delivery and another 33% want to get items faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
BOPIS is not only for the consumer, the retailer benefits by bringing the consumer in store despite being acquired online. The Harvard Business Review found that when customers are acquired online and show up in store, it results in 13% more spending in-store, and six months later they had visited the retail store 23% more often, and were more likely to recommend the brand, than a non omnichannel shopper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
