Control your Inventory & Orders with MOQ & MaxOQ

Control your Inventory & Orders with MOQ & MaxOQ

If you’ve been struggling with managing inventory and making sales in bulk quantities on your website, this is the one for you!

MOQ (Minimum Order Quantity) and MaxOQ (Maximum Order Quantity) allow you to set the lowest or highest amount of a particular product each customer can buy at once. For example, you can set your MOQ to 3, and this means the smallest amount of the product a customer can order on your website for the product is 3. Just the same way, you can set your MaxOQ to 10, and this means that the highest amount of the product a customer can order on your website for the product is 10.

And this is what your customers will see when they’re shopping.

Control your Inventory & Orders with MOQ & MaxOQ

Benefits:

  1. Sell Products Faster: Setting a minimum number of items customers must buy means you get to sell your stock faster.

  2. Protect Your Business from Low Profit: If the profit margins on each product is low, you can recoup your profit by ensuring a minimum order value.

  3. Optimise your inventory: MOQ ensures you have enough stock to fulfil orders without overstocking, while MaxOQ sets limits on the quantity that can be ordered, preventing inventory shortages or overages.

  4. Prevent order fulfilment issues: Customers can’t order quantities that exceed your capacity to fulfil, reducing the risk of stockouts, backorders, or delays in order processing.

Entice More Customers to Shop with Free Shipping

Entice More Customers to Shop with Free Shipping

Customers may sometimes need a little nudge to spend a lot more, and this update makes it easy for you without lifting a finger. Let’s introduce you to Free shipping!

Free shipping allows you to set up a minimum amount that your customers have to hit to qualify for free shipping. For example, if you set the minimum amount to N20,000, then your customers need to shop for items worth at least N20,000 to qualify for free shipping. They'll see this when they qualify.

Entice More Customers to Shop with Free Shipping

The best part is that your customers get to see how much they’ve spent as they’re shopping and how much more they need to spend to get that enticing free shipping deal!

Benefits:

  1. Increase your average order value: You’ll be encouraging customers to add more items to their cart to reach the set amount, and this can increase your business’s average order value.

  2. Boost your sales conversion: It can act as a powerful incentive for your customers to complete their purchases rather than abandoning their carts.

  3. Get a competitive advantage: As customers increasingly expect fast and affordable shipping options which you can get by connecting your Bumpa account with Shipbubble, providing this benefit can differentiate your brand, attract new customers, and retain existing ones.

Offer your Customers more with Product Variation Images

Offer your Customers more with Product Variation Images

There’s nothing more terrifying to a customer than a case of ‘What I ordered vs what I got’. The great thing is now, you can ease their worries even more. Check out product variation images!

Now instead of setting one image for all the variations of one product you have, say blue, black, purple and green, you can set an image to fit each variation!

For example, if you sell dresses and you have 3 different variations - red, blue, and green, you can add the images for each of these variations, and your customers can see how each one will look when they select any variation on your website. It’ll look like this.

Offer your Customers more with Product Variation Images

Benefits:

  1. A better shopping experience for your customers: Your customers can visualise different options, colors or styles before making a purchase.

  2. Increase customer confidence: Seeing different product variations through images builds trust and confidence in the product quality and variety offered by your business.

  3. Reduce returns and exchanges: Clear product variation images help set accurate expectations for customers regarding colors, sizes, and features. This reduces the likelihood of returns or exchanges due to misunderstandings with the product received.

  2. Easier to build trust and credibility: Positive reviews from satisfied customers can build trust for potential buyers.

  3. Increases your social proof: You can leverage positive feedback to influence purchasing decisions and attract new customers who trust the experiences of previous buyers.

Run more Exciting FOMO Campaigns with Coupon Limitations

Run more Exciting FOMO Campaigns with Coupon Limitations

If you want to get customers running to take advantage of your discounts during a sales period, then you want to check this feature out.

Picture this; a campaign where you can set a limit to the people that can use a coupon. For example, you can run a ‘First 50 people get 20% off’ campaign easily; all you need to do is set a coupon to be used 50 times only. This is perfect for creating FOMO (fear of missing out) for your customers, making them want to shop even faster to get a deal.

What’s now available with coupons:

  • You can set how many times a coupon can be used.

  • You can set how many times a person can use a coupon code.

Benefits:

  1. Create urgency for your campaigns: You can motivate your customers to act quickly to grab the discounts.

  2. Control the amount you spend on discounts: You can calculate and set exactly how much you want to give away for your discounts by managing how many times a coupon can be used.

Improve your customers’ loyalty: Creating coupons for repeat customers increases their loyalty to your brand, and they’re likely to come back to shop from you over and over.
