Conversion Rate Optimisation for Kenyan Brands
The average ecommerce conversion rate in Kenya is under 1.5%. We systematically find and fix the leaks in your funnel using data, not guesswork.
Call a consultantGetting traffic but not enough sales?
High Cart Abandonment
Users are adding products to the cart but abandoning them at checkout when they see delivery fees or confusing payment flows.
Trust Deficit
Kenyan buyers are naturally skeptical of online stores. If your site doesn't instantly project authority, they won't buy.
Blind Operations
You know sales are dropping, but you have no idea where in the funnel users are leaving the site.
How we approach conversion rate optimisation
Full funnel audit
We install heatmaps and session recordings to see exactly how real Kenyans are interacting with your store.
Checkout and cart abandonment fixes
We streamline the checkout process, removing unnecessary fields and adding trust signals.
Product page optimisation
We restructure your product pages to answer objections immediately and highlight social proof.

Frequently asked questions
What is a good conversion rate for a Kenyan ecommerce store?↓
While global averages sit around 2%, many Kenyan stores hover at 0.5%–1.5%. A highly optimised store in Kenya can achieve 2.5%–4%.
Do I need a lot of traffic for CRO?↓
To run statistically significant A/B tests, yes (usually 10k+ sessions/mo). However, heuristic UX fixes can benefit stores of any size.
How quickly will I see results?↓
Immediate fixes (like removing a broken checkout field) show results instantly. A/B testing is a continuous process that compounds over 3–6 months.
