Most founders think the key to unlocking more revenue is adding new features, launching campaigns, or bringing in more traffic.

We thought that too—until we didn’t.

Our app was solid. Users loved it. Reviews were great. Traffic? Decent. But conversions? Meh.

So instead of building more, we took a step back and asked: “Where are we losing people?”
Answer: Checkout.

Here’s what we learned: The tiniest bit of friction at checkout can quietly kill your revenue. Clunky forms, unexpected fields, delayed load times, or even poor mobile optimization — they don’t just annoy users. They make them leave.

So, we did what most don’t.
No new features. No redesigns.
Just optimize the mobile app checkout UX.

simplify the steps. Removed distractions. Added autofill and Apple/Google Pay. Showed price clarity and trust badges upfront. Make it feel seamless — like the purchase was part of the app experience, not a hurdle to it.

The result will be?

  • 4X revenue in few weeks.

  • Drop in checkout abandonment by 48%.

  • No changes to product or pricing.

The lesson? People want to buy. Just don’t make them work for it.

If you're looking for a growth lever that doesn't burn your dev team out or blow your budget — this is it.

Before you build the next shiny thing, look at your checkout flow.

Because sometimes, the growth you’re chasing isn’t in your roadmap.
It’s hidden in plain sight — just one tap away.
