Make your checkout process simpler
We are all lazy to some extent. You, me or your client may not be eager to fill in all fields on your checkout page. Sometimes such forms with a great number of required fields may even scare off customers so that they just abandon the page which cause loss of profits. It’s really a problem for all merchants.
How to simplify Magento 2 checkout?
Our team has an answer!
PotatoCommerce Google Address Autocomplete extension for Magento 2 integrates Google Places API with checkout of your Magento 2.
Besides, this module adds interactive address hints to any address field, so that a web form will be easier and more appealing.
It works as simple as ABC: the address hints appear once your visitor enters text in the Address field.
When users select some of the suggestions appeared, all the fields (country, state, city, address or sometimes even zipcode) will be filled in automatically on the fly disregarding the order in which a customer is typing. Hence, the number of address fields is reduced from 5 to 1! Now your client just needs to leave their phone number, and then they are ready to enter payment details.
