""Irrelevance, maybe 10 years ago, was neutral. It's now damaging: consumers' expectations have risen... so that moment when you're given an irrelevant offer at the checkout has become the online equivalent of a shop assistant getting in your way," says Marc Allsop, head of EMEA at Rokt."
"And the numbers back it up: 62% of shoppers say they'll abandon their cart altogether if faced with an irrelevant offer."
""The Transaction Moment isn't just a dopamine hit," says Whitear: "It reflects the journey customers take to get there. For Tails.com, that purchase shows care: choosing the right food is an act of love for their dog.""
Checkout is a prime high-engagement moment where relevancy unlocks emotional value and conversion. Consumers increasingly expect personalized, timely offers at the point of purchase; irrelevant offers now harm experience and cause abandonment, with 62% saying they will abandon carts faced with irrelevant offers. For 73% of consumers, the moment of payment and receipt is the happiest online experience, reflecting an emotional peak labeled the Transaction Moment. Younger cohorts—Millennials, Gen Z and Gen Alpha—drive stronger anticipation for online shopping and prioritize curation, convenience and control. Seamlessness and contextual relevance at checkout are critical to capture that consumer uplift.
