Overstock.com deployed the VeriSign Secured® Seal and VeriSign® Extended Validation SSL Certificates to further enhance customers’ confidence when transacting on its Web site. As a result of the enhancement, site visitors with browsers that support the new certificate now abandon their shopping cart 8.6% less than other site visitors.
Deployment of the VeriSign Secured Seal and EV SSL Certificates was an easy decision. We’re ecstatic with the ease of implementation and the subsequent decrease in shopping cart abandonment.
