Challenge
After migrating to Global-e Native checkout, fully compatible with Shopify, in March 2023, Victoria Beckham encountered an issue. Previously, Global-e managed the welcome popups and facilitated the connection of their multiple stores catering to different markets:
Rest of the World: international.victoriabeckham.com
However, Victoria Beckham faced a critical challenge in finding a solution that would seamlessly connect their various Expansion stores for different markets and redirect customers to the appropriate store based on their IP address. Not achieving this could have resulted in significant issues, including a potential loss in international sales and a surge in abandoned purchases.
For instance, customers arriving from different channels, such as Social Media, would end up on the .com site, which lacked worldwide shipping capabilities. Consequently, many customers would encounter incorrect prices and proceed to the checkout without the option to specify their shipping preferences beyond the United Kingdom. The frustration arising from such a situation could have further exacerbated the problem. However, thanks to the invaluable assistance of one of Global-e's project managers, they discovered the perfect solution in Orbe.
In addition to connecting their multiple stores seamlessly, Victoria Beckham had specific requirements they needed to fulfill.
As a Fashion Luxury brand, the popups had to reflect their design aesthetics and align with their brand to offer the best possible user experience.
They sought a non-intrusive popup that wouldn't disrupt customers' shopping journey, appearing only when they found themselves in the wrong shopping experience.
As a data-driven brand, it was crucial to have redirections with attribution parameters for their marketing campaigns, enabling them to track the performance of their campaigns in GA4.
