Shopping-Club Gilt hatte ja mit als erster Retailer eine iPad App am Start, die nach wie als ein Paradebeispiel für gelungene Tablet-Apps gilt und auch beim iPad-Briefing auf den Live Shopping Days daher zu Recht vorgestellt wurde:
Auf einer US-Konferenz hat Produktmanager Chris Maliwat nun erstmals spannende Zahlen über die eigene Shopping-App verraten:
"Releasing the first iPad retail application, Gilt Groupe now provides a luxury online, flash-sales shopping destination to over four million members. As of January 2011, they have approximately 100,000 active monthly iPad users in the United States, with over 33% of users shopping on the weekend.
With beautiful pages that feel more like an editorial magazine than category or product pages, the iPad experience is focused on optimization for touch with a smooth transition, as well as on the product images themselves. With order values 30% higher on the iPad than their website or iPhone application, their focus on the experience to engage their users is working."
Interessant auch, welche Tablet-Erfahrungen man prinzipiell sammeln konnte:
- Gilt Groupe expected their iPad to perform in similar ways to their website. They’ve been right so far.
- People are looking at Gilt Groupe for content – not just commerce – so they continue to bring their members an editorial magazine design, or look book, experience.
- They thought they were going to be done when they launched the application, but have to continuously focus on improving stability, speed, and image load times. Expect a few cycles to launch and learn.
- They were so ahead of the curve at the launch date that they did not originally dedicate all of the right resources. They now have a team focused entirely on mobile.
Im Gespräch mit Netzökonom Holger Schmidt hatte bereits eBay-Manager Steve Yankovich verraten, dass sich iPad-Nutzer pro Session länger mit der Plattform beschäftigen und tendenziell auch mehr Geld beim Shopping ausgeben.
