Overview

Giving customers a smooth checkout experience can have a significant impact on your conversion rates. That's why Tekmatix now gives store owners more flexibility by allowing them to choose between One-Step Checkout and Two-Step Checkout directly within the Store Builder.

Whether you prefer a streamlined checkout process or want to capture customer details earlier in the buying journey, you can now customise the checkout experience to suit your business and customers.

What's New?

Choose Your Checkout Experience

A new Checkout Type setting has been added to the Checkout element within the Store Builder.

You can now select between:

• One-Step Checkout

• Two-Step Checkout

This setting gives you greater control over how customers progress through the purchasing process.

How Two-Step Checkout Works

When Two-Step Checkout is enabled, customers complete their purchase in two stages.

Step 1: Customer Information & Shipping Details

Customers enter:

• First Name

• Last Name

• Email Address

• Phone Number

• Shipping Information

Once all required information has been entered correctly, they can continue to the next step.

Step 2: Payment & Order Completion

Customers then complete:

• Billing Information

• Payment Details

• Order Review

• Place Order

This structure allows businesses to collect customer information earlier in the checkout process while maintaining a smooth purchasing experience.

Default Behaviour

No action is required for existing stores.

Existing Checkout Pages

• One-Step Checkout remains the default option.

• Existing checkout pages will continue to function exactly as they do today.

• No changes are made unless you choose to update the Checkout Type setting.

How to Enable Two-Step Checkout

Follow these steps to configure your preferred checkout experience:

1. Open the Store Builder

2. Edit your Checkout Page

3. Select the Checkout Element

4. Open Form Options in the settings panel

5. Locate the Checkout Type setting

6. Choose either:

   • One-Step Checkout

   • Two-Step Checkout

7. Save your changes

8. Publish the page

Your selected checkout experience will now be active.

Key Benefits of Two-Step Checkout

Capture Customer Information Earlier

Customer contact and shipping details are collected before payment information is requested.

This can help businesses better understand customer intent and improve follow-up opportunities.

Improved Checkout Flow

Breaking the checkout process into two stages can make the experience feel simpler and less overwhelming for customers.

Flexible Page-Level Settings

The Checkout Type setting applies at the individual Checkout element level.

This means you can:

• Use One-Step Checkout on some pages

• Use Two-Step Checkout on others

• Test different checkout experiences for different products or offers

Better Validation Before Payment

Customers can only proceed to Step 2 once all required Step 1 information has been completed correctly, helping improve data accuracy and reduce checkout errors.

Why This Matters

Checkout optimisation is one of the easiest ways to improve conversion performance.

This update allows businesses to:

• Create a smoother purchasing experience

• Capture customer details earlier

• Reduce friction during checkout

• Test different conversion strategies

• Improve order completion rates

• Customise checkout flows for different products and audiences
