Kuwait-specific checkout problems cost real money
A large share of abandoned carts in Kuwait have local causes that a generic e-commerce checklist misses entirely: no KNET option, cash on delivery not offered or priced badly, delivery time not shown before payment, an address form that assumes street names rather than block and street numbers, and forced account creation.
Each of these is configuration rather than development on most platforms. Fixing them typically lifts conversion more in a week than a month of new traffic would, and the gain applies to every visitor you have ever paid for. The CRO guide for Kuwait stores works through them in order of impact.
Raise the order, not just the order count
Delivery and payment processing cost roughly the same whether an order is 12 KD or 32 KD. That means average order value flows almost straight to profit, and it is usually the easiest of the four multipliers to move.
Practical levers for Kuwait: free delivery above a threshold set slightly above your current average, bundles that are obviously better value than buying separately, a relevant add-on shown at cart rather than buried on the product page, and — where it fits your category — installment options, which measurably raise basket size in this market.
The orders you are already losing
Someone who added to cart and left is the warmest lead you will ever get — they chose a product, saw the price, and stopped. Recovering even a fraction of those is the cheapest revenue available, and most Kuwait stores have no recovery at all.
In this market WhatsApp outperforms email for this by a wide margin. A single message an hour later, in the customer's language, offering help rather than a discount, recovers a meaningful share. Setting it up through the WhatsApp Business API makes it automatic rather than a job someone has to remember.
