The unrelenting evolution of technology shows no signs of abating.
And nowhere is this more clearly evidenced than in ecommerce.
Gone are the days when shoppers would meander online to determine if an online order was right for them.
Today, technology is not only helping customers keep track of their purchases and giving them different options for paying, it's also fundamentally altering the ways in which those consumers interact with online retailers.

Payment solutions have come a long way from cash and chip-and-pin, and high-profile technology, such as Amazon Go, is making it one of the most watched areas of retail. In this interview, RetailTechNews speaks to Will Broome (pictured below), CEO & founder, Ubamarket, who are bringing this sort of technology to the UK, to understand why change is required when it comes to payments.

In an era of smart cities — that are designed to be productive, accessible and liveable — driving down pothole-ridden streets should be an annoyance of the past.
Likewise graffitied walls or abandoned trollies, problems of yesterday’s urban environment.
Yet the concept of smart cities remains exactly that, an idea yet to materialise and a theory yet to transition into practice.

A customer journey map is a deliverable created by UX designers (or with the input of UX designers) as a way of helping businesses better understand their users’ needs. By mapping the user journey of a product or service across all their touchpoints, we can learn not only where our UX is falling short, but how we can optimize these journeys for more conversions (usually by removing friction).

User Experience (UX) is somewhat of an ambiguous term. After all, how do you determine what is good UX and what is bad UX? Where do ‘they’ draw the line? And how do you know if you’ve got things under control? Offering up a superior digital user experience is becoming increasingly important among businesses and customers alike – which means you’re going to need the answers to these questions if you want to succeed in achieving a good UX. A great way of learning more about the quality of the UX you provide is by testing and measuring it using User Experience Testing Tools.

This article explains the why, when, what, how, where, and who of user testing for mobile friendly websites or apps. The sooner you find out your what is wrong with your *brilliant* concept, the easier, quicker, cheaper (and less embarrassing) it is to put it right or – if it is a total flop – go back to the drawing board.
That is why it is never too early to start testing and why testing should be ingrained into the design and development schedule.

To understand why your users behave the way they do, you first need to get to know them. You may make assumptions about who those users are, but you should be constantly challenging those assumptions, or at least be backing them up with facts...
