Our take
Designed to replace existing checkout models and make buying on any device easy and safe, Bolt provides a one-click checkout solution. Its online shopping software is utilized by companies like Brooks Brothers and Forever 21. As well as supporting all major card providers and alternative payment methods like PayPal, customers also don't need a username or password. This reduces cart abandonment and increases merchant conversion rates.
The company has seen impressive growth, annually processing more than $1 billion in retail transactions across its 300+ retailers. While Bolt has won the race against Google, who tried, and failed with Google Checkout, there are other 'one-click' competitors to watch out for, including Square, which has over 30 million monthly active users.
