That is precisely why Lucardi partnered together with Trusted Shops to implement their trust solutions into their online shop.
The Trusted Shops Trustbadge® was the perfect tool to get the job done. By giving users easy access to service reviews and information on the Trustmark and the 30-day Buyer Protection, Lucardi saw their shopping baskets above €50 increase by 17%.
"We tested the effect of the Trustbadge and the result was just great! I’m totally convinced of the impact of the Trustmark and the review system. That’s why we show the Trustbadge on all pages of our online shops."
