Locally Product Updates: June 2023
Locally’s latest product updates offer shoppers more purchase options, helping our brand partners to increase sales. We have also added more international support and launched a new affiliate integration.
Same-Day Delivery Support
Same-Day Delivery is in high demand among consumers. We’ve updated our Product Locator to offer an easy Same-Day Delivery purchase option within the tool. For brands that utilize our Product Locator, shoppers can select Same-Day Delivery, confirm their address, and place an order in one seamless flow.
Same-Day Delivery is made possible by our network of 23,000+ retailers. To learn more about the Locally Product Locator, contact your Locally rep or request a demo today.
Ship-to-Store in The Product Locator
Ship-to-Store is one of the fastest-growing transaction types we see with Locally partners. We have now added Ship-to-Store as an option for shoppers directly within our Product Locator. For any brand offering Ship-to-Store, shoppers can see participating locations nearby and order any product in that brand’s warehouse inventory to be shipped to a store for assembly or pickup.
Ship-To-Store in The UK And Ireland
Locally has continued to expand our offerings to brands that sell internationally. We now offer Ship-to-Store support in the United Kingdom and in Ireland.
If your brand has authorized dealers in these countries and you’d like to implement Ship-to-Store, or if you would like to learn more about other international capabilities, reach out to your Locally representative.
Updated Product Variant Messaging
Some of our brand partners prefer to display authorized dealers on product pages if any color, size, or other variation of that product is available. The Locally Product Locator, however, will only show the shopper exactly what is available. When we detect a shopper has been viewing a size or color that differs from local availability, we have added clear messaging that signals to the shopper we are displaying only what is currently in stock.
A popup will appear when shoppers have viewed a variant of a product that differs from what is available in stock.
New Rakuten Integration
Locally now integrates with Rakuten, a popular affiliate marketing platform. Through Rakuten, retailers like Fleet Feet Sports, Sam Ash Music, and SAIL Plein Air now offer and fulfill BOPIS orders with Locally.
Any retailer that offers their own BOPIS check-out on their site can apply to Locally through Rakuten’s interface. Contact support@locally.com to get started.
Online-to-offline is the number one way people shop. Locally is the premium solution to win those shoppers.
