A practical example
Example: a customer adds shoes to a cart on the website, receives a reminder, completes the purchase in the physical store where staff can see the saved cart, and later returns them by post with the same order reference.
What to evaluate before investing
- Ask which cross-channel journeys the platform supports out of the box, such as buy online pick up in store or cross-channel cart continuity.
- Check whether store staff tools can see online customer context like saved carts and loyalty status.
- Test how channel-specific promotions are prevented from stacking into unintended discounts across channels.
Limitations and tradeoffs
Journey continuity depends on every channel adopting the same processes; one offline channel that cannot read shared context breaks the experience.
