Best Practices
-
Keep buyers inside the app. Use the in‑app browser unless your checkout requires a full browser.
Use clear calls to action. “Buy Now,” “Unlock Discount,” or “Start My Trial” convert better than generic text. - Track performance. Add UTM parameters to each URL to see which placement drives the most sales.
That’s it! Your branded app now offers multiple touchpoints—buttons, images, menus, and push notifications—for members to purchase with a single tap. Please vote below and let us know if you found this article helpful. We value your feedback. Thanks for being the best part of Kajabi!
