SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA -- 07/07/08 --
Interspire, the global leader in
e-commerce, content management and email marketing software, today
announced availability of
Interspire Shopping Cart
3.5. The newest version of the Interspire private label
e-commerce software is the perfect option for businesses searching for a
simple way to build and manage an online store with the intrinsic ability
to increase conversion rates.
While there are many ecommerce software options, the problem is that they
are difficult to use and are often hard to customize without help from a
web designer. Retailers find that few programs offer key functionality for
running an online business. For example, they do not integrate with
marketing tools or provide business intelligence so that business owners
can improve their offering.
"A variety of industry analysts in the ecommerce space advocate improving
personalization, offering secure buying options and providing quick
transactions to turn visitors into customers," said Eddie Machaalani, CEO
and co-founder of Interspire. "Etailers need intuitive products that can
impact conversion rates. Interspire products wrap all the features and
options needed into one package so our customers can get up and running
quickly and sell more."
Interspire Shopping Cart incorporates store management,
marketing and advertising, a Google Adwords generator, design,
customization and setup abilities, a content management system and shopper
tools. The newest edition of Interspire Shopping Cart has even more
features to support online business growth including:
Single Page Checkout
-- Encourage increased conversion rates with simple checkout that
eliminates clicking through multiple pages and reduces shopping cart
abandonment. Interspire Shopping Cart also now integrates Google Checkout.
Shipping Zones -- Allow customers to view shipping cost estimates prior to
check out which can be specified depending on country, state, or postal
code.
Order Processing --
Interspire Shopping Cart offers the ability to completely process orders on
the iPhone by logging into the store's control panel. Users will have the
ability to view, filter and search orders by keyword/status and page
through hundreds/thousands of orders without having to go back to their
desk.
Multiple Currency -- The software automatically detects currency and works
with Webservice X to offer multiple currency support.
Intuit QuickBooks Sync -- Sync orders, new products, customer information
and inventory into QuickBooks using the free QuickBooks Web connector.
Statistics and Analytics -- In order to ensure sales goals are being
achieved, store owners can monitor the store with overview, order, customer
and search statistics.
Developer Documentation -- Developers can find all documentation for
building add-ons, customizing templates, private labeling as well as using
the XML API in the Interspire Developer Network, IDN.interspire.com.
