About this masterclass

Research among 20,000 consumers across fifteen countries shows that mobile shopping is becoming increasingly dominant, but the experience often disappoints. While 73% of browsing happens via mobile, 7 out of 10 mobile shoppers regularly experience a poor web experience.

The biggest stumbling blocks

Scroll fatigue tops the list of mobile frustrations. Consumers become mentally tired from endless scrolling while searching for information. Companies like Rabobank and Coolblue tackle this with sticky menus, clear navigation and smart filter options that minimize scrolling.

Fragmented comparison forms the second major problem. Users must constantly click back and forth between product pages to understand differences. Successful players like Unive and Amazon make comparison efficient by making key product information directly visible and using comparison tables.

Concrete solutions

The best approach combines three elements: help users with scanning through top categories and limited item lists (15-30 per page), facilitate navigation with sticky elements and visible search bars, and support decision-making with recommendations and choice assistance tools.

For webshops with large assortments, choice assistance tools are essential. Through targeted questions, you filter thousands of products down to a manageable selection of three to four options.
