SEQR makes e-commerce even faster - Webhallen starts using SEQR’s Instant Checkout to increase speed and conversion.

Easy order placement and secure mobile payments are essential to growing this further.

SEQR’s Instant Checkout makes it easier than ever to complete purchases on a mobile device. All customer delivery information such as name, address, e-mail and mobile phone number are automatically transferred from SEQR to the merchant when the purchase is approved. The customer simply needs to entering their PIN code in the SEQR app. SEQR Instant Checkout makes the purchase faster, smoother and significantly increases sales conversion. When shopping on a desktop, orders are placed easily by scanning a QR code displayed on the screen.
