Amidst ongoing inflation and high prices, consumers are changing their shopping behaviors. Our recent whitepaper, "Shopping in the New Normal: Responding to New Consumer Habits That Are Here to Stay," measured the impact of today’s economy and inflationary environment on shopping behavior, and consumer sentiment towards a variety of savings tools and tactics. For example, 74% of respondents increased their use of money-saving approaches for online shopping last year.
These changes in behavior are important for businesses to understand so they can meet their customers where they are and deliver the money-saving tools in demand today. Tactics such as redeeming digital coupons and using cashback rewards browser extensions are favored by more and more value-seeking, technically-advanced consumers.
- 3 in 4 consumers report being more interested in cashback rewards and coupons than ever before
- Almost half of online shoppers have added a browser extension to their web browser; of these, 74% use an extension frequently to save money when shopping online
- 87% of consumers expect their new shopping habits to stick going forward
