ATLANTA, Oct. 01, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- 2Checkout (formerly Avangate), a leader in eCommerce, payments and subscription billing solutions, today announces that Nero, a leader in multimedia technology, has seen revenue improvements for its online sales channel since working with 2Checkout’s Avangate Monetization Platform.  The improvements were made possible by the platform’s optimized order and payment processing system, and rich ecommerce and merchandizing functionality.  Nero has seen a revenue uplift of more than 6% from follow-ups on abandoned carts and unfinished payments, as well as over 10% increases in conversion rates on new acquisitions in several geographies, including key markets such as the USA and Germany.

Nero is leveraging the Avangate Monetization Platform to sell perpetual licenses as well as subscription-based products, via online direct sales as well as in-app and additional sales channels.

We are impressed with the breadth and depth of the ecommerce and subscriptions functionality that the Avangate Monetization platform offers and with the conversion rate improvements and revenue uplifts we achieved,” declared Felix Hüning, Director eCommerce, Nero. “Especially as we put more emphasis on our subscription-based business, tools that help us increase client lifetime value – such as involuntary and voluntary churn prevention – are of the utmost importance. 2Checkout’s platform also offers great flexibility for adjacent hardware sales, which we are looking forward to leveraging soon. All in all, we are very pleased with working with the 2Checkout team,” added Hüning.
