Our take
Online shopping has rapidly shifted to mobile in recent years, with the majority of Internet shopping transactions now taking place on mobile devices. For businesses that lack the resources or time to engage developers or hire an agency to build a mobile app, this means potentially losing out on a huge proportion of customers. Tapcart is a mobile commerce SaaS platform that integrates directly with Shopify, offering a solution to this problem.
The Tapcart platform allows users to create well-designed apps in less time for an affordable monthly fee. Using a drag-and-drop method with no coding required, it’s even appealing to those who are less tech-savvy. Tapcart is used by 7000+ Shopify brands including Fashion Nova and Chubbies.
Tapcart also helps merchants automate their marketing. It's a smart move that will help them to attract more SMB to mid-market enterprise customers who have reached the stage where they want to focus more on customer retention and conversion and optimize their mobile workflow. Additionally, the 2023 release of "Custom Blocks", a new low-code product, will enable Tapcart to serve more complex enterprise merchants as it moves towards broadening its customer pool.
