Why other benchmarks say 2.7%, what changed in Shopify's own session counting in September 2026, and how one niche store went from almost nothing to about 1.9%.

Quantity tiers, bundles and free shipping raise it, but a threshold in the wrong place gives away more shipping than it earns. The math, the Shopify and WooCommerce setup, and why one store grew its sales while its average order stood still. [Growth & Sales](https://carthacker.com/category/growth/) ## [Do Trust Badges Work? What the Evidence Says](https://carthacker.com/growth/trust-badges/) August 25, 2026, by [Adrian Wadowski](https://carthacker.com/author/adrian/) [![A product buy box with an Add to cart button and four trust badges in the rosette style directly under it: Free shipping, Tracked shipping, 30 days returns and Secure checkout](https://carthacker.com/wp-content/uploads/trust-badges-under-add-to-cart.jpg)](https://carthacker.com/growth/trust-badges/) Trust badges confirm your promises at a glance, and a randomized study found that a seal raised purchases. Which badges answer a real doubt, where they belong, which ones the law bans, and three days of seen rates from a real store.

The reasons shoppers give, what one real store funnel shows, and the fixes for Shopify and WooCommerce: costs shown early, local payment methods, a shorter checkout, an honest countdown with free code and a recovery email that sounds like your store.
