Simple, flexible and customisable sort options
Show common sort options like A-Z, Price, Product Name etc… as well as completely customisable options based on merchant-specific attributes. All sort options can display in both ascending and descending order. Have sort options on category and/or search results pages and apply different options to both if you wish.
Displaying results/categories
Choose from: Paging (decide the number of products that appear on each page); Lazy Loading (Show all items on a single page that is populated as the users scrolls down. You can define what percentage of on-screen items to scroll through before loading more); Infinite Scrolling (Content on a single page but it’s populated when scroll bar reaches bottom of the page).
Real-time, behavioural data
Populate sort options with categories based on real-time, behavioural data driven by metrics such as best sellers, product rating, rank, on sale, new etc...
Category-specific

Intelligent Search Passes
Multiple, configurable search sweeps let you decide which elements to match search queries against, in which order, and which match type (e.g. partial or full match), helping you deliver the fastest and most accurate results to your users across whatever data or content you have available including both product and content pages.
'No results' or exact matches

Customisable display
Choose which of the sort options to use for your recommendations and then select which categories to select the products from, how many products to display and the order they should display in. Use different sort options to populate different product recommendations on each individual product page, or use the same ones across categories and/or groups of products.
Cross-sell and Up-sell

The tradeit ecommerce platform incorporates email marketing functionality that helps merchants to effectively communicate with their customers. tradeit's high volume bulk emailing tool enables marketers to create email marketing campaigns, execute them and then analyse the results in-house. It also allows you to take your email marketing and personalisation a stage further by introducing triggered email campaigns to individuals or groups of customers.
Bulk email
Simple email builder gives you full control over imagery, layout, content and links. Manage email lists and customer groups to help segment your audience, as well as monitoring bounce backs and unsubscribe requests automatically.
Transactional email
Manage automated responses, such as registration, order confirmation, or delivery notification. You decide when your customers are emailed and what the email content is.
Automated, triggered email
Automatically trigger email communications to your customers based on their action, or inaction, with definable conditions ensuring only those customers you want to target are reached.
Reporting
Measure and report on response, conversion and click-through rates allowing you to continually hone and improve your email communications.
tradeit’s re-engagement tools extend to the functionality of emails that are automatically triggered by merchant-definable user events. These might be things like customer registration, ordering, login, creating a basket and many more.
Once you have decided to trigger emails based on a chosen event you can then also determine whether you want to apply any conditions to whether, when and who to send them to and which products and channels those conditions apply for. These can include things like how many days to wait before sending it, whether to send it if the user has subsequently carried out further actions on your site, whether to send it to all customers or just a subset, and whether the event is only relevant for certain products, brands, channels and much more.
This sophisticated functionality is great for ensuring relevant and targeted communications with your users making it perfect for welcome emails, order replenishment reminders, or abandoned basket campaigns.

By offering loyalty points against all items you can drive users to add more to their basket each time they shop, driving up AOV and revenue.

Increase customer engagement and engender loyalty with no effort on their part. No convoluted membership, sign up or complex terms and conditions.
Effortless, user-friendly points system
Points are automatically applied to a user’s account every time they spend and can be debited during checkout for full or part payment of an order.
Flexible setup
Merchant definable and flexible options enable you to determine value of points for collection and their redemption value, as well as whether points are earned against orders/part orders paid for with existing points. The merchant can also define how long points are valid for.
NOTE: Orders are still output with actual value rather than discounted rate (helping to make accountancy much easier).
Simple interface
Points value is displayed against each product, and the basket value during checkout. Users can then redeem any saved points on purchases. Account balance is displayed in the user’s My Account and on the payment page where it can be fully or partially redeemed.
Promotional opportunity

Use to apply credits to a user’s account in the form of points which are redeemable against any future orders.
Spend & Save
Set spend & save targets for customers to incentivise them to spend more than in a previous time period by defining a percentage increase for the user to reach. Any reward for reaching the target can be defined by the merchant and could include a discount off their next order, some free loyalty points, or an upgrade to the next tier of any membership giving them better pricing, or a better service. Customer balances, targets, discounts etc... are all displayed in their my account.
