Assurance Seals
For a customer to buy from your site they need to feel
that their card details are safe, and that they will get
their goods. You need to prove to them that you are reputable.
Obtaining an assurance seal is an excellent way to gain
customer confidence. There are a variety of seals available,
each at a different price. Many charge a annual subscription
so check the terms before you signup. You will also need
to comply to their standards, and be able to provide proof.
If you are unsure, then the best bet is to give them a call.
The benefits of having an assurance seal is paramount. It
shows that your site is reputable and trust-worthy. As there
are so many con-artists out there on the web, customers
are sometimes nervous to purchase online. With an assurance
seal, you are showing to all potential customers that you
are a genuine company. This results in customer confidence
in your company and therefore better conversions.
