These days, consumers' expectations are high because they’re accustomed to getting free shipping and fast deliveries due to Amazon creating this as the new norm. 


The fact is, there are so many online stores that have similar products that it can be chllenging to stand out from the crowd unless you have a niche product that vendors just can’t offer. 


The way that some B2C and B2B companies are approaching the situation is by diminishing shipping charges completely to keep their customers happy and coming back. 


Many online-based vendors have found that not charging for shipping increases their customer base and creates customer loyalty. According to a survey, “77% of global survey respondents have abandoned a purchase due to unsatisfactory shipping options”. It’s crazy to think that in that same survey 25% would give up coffee, 22% would give up Netflix, and 19% would give up social media in exchange for free shipping on their online orders!


Here are the main benefits of offering free shipping to your customers: 


  • Increase your sales and revenue. 
  • Improve your customer loyalty. 
  • Outcompete your rivals. 
  • Increase your order size. 
  • Relieve your customer's confusion. 


If you have an e-commerce store, we highly recommend offering free shipping to your customers and the way you can do that is if you receive free shipping on your wholesale products.
