Making Shopping Experience Better With One-Click Technology 

One-click technology is a feature that allows customers to quickly and easily complete a purchase with a single click of a button. 

Here are a few steps to use one-click technology to group your potential customers into profiles based on their likelihood to buy:

🗣 Collect and analyze customer data: To group customers into profiles, you will need to collect data on their preferences, buying habits, and other behavior. Use data analytics tools to analyze this data and identify patterns and trends that can help you understand your customers and their buying likelihood.

🗣 Create customer profiles: Use your collected data to create customer profiles that group customers into segments based on their buying likelihood. For example, you might create a profile for "high-value customers" who are likely to make large purchases or for "price-sensitive customers" who are more likely to be influenced by discounts and promotions.

🗣 Implement one-click technology: Once you have created customer profiles, you can use one-click technology to make it easy for customers to complete purchases. For example, you might use one-click checkout for high-value customers to make it easy for them to make large purchases or offer one-click ordering for price-sensitive customers to help them take advantage of discounts and promotions.

🗣 Monitor and adjust your profiles: As you collect more data and customer behavior changes, your customer profiles may need to be updated to reflect these changes. Monitor your customer data and adjust your profiles to reflect the likelihood of customers making purchases accurately.

Snap Repurposes AR E-Commerce For NFTs

Snap, the social media app known for its camera-focused features and "filters," is hosting its fifth annual augmented reality (AR) developer conference, Lens Fest. Interested individuals can livestream some of the panels and workshops of the two-day event at Lensfest.live. 

Snapchat's emphasis on photo enhancement makes it a natural fit for exploring AR applications, and it has become a popular platform for creators and developers working in the AR space. Snap's own figures show that 363 million people use its camera technology daily, with Snapchatters engaging in an average of 6 billion daily AR experiences. 

To date, Snap has claimed that 300,000 AR creators and developers are actively working on Lenses for the platform, up from 250,000, with approximately 80% of these creators located outside of the US. This year, the company has announced plans to experiment with a new kind of AR Lens that allows users to buy and sell digital goods directly within the app. 

The transactions will use "Snap Tokens," a virtual currency first introduced in 2020. Currently, Snap users can purchase tokens directly through the app and use them to send gifts or tips to their favorite creators, or redeem them for exclusive merchandise. In the future, these tokens will also unlock digital goods within Lenses.

In recent years, the company has focused on developing augmented reality (AR) technology, which allows users to superimpose digital objects onto the real world through the use of their smartphone camera.

Snap recently announced that it is experimenting with a new type of AR Lens that can be used to buy and sell digital goods directly within the app. This feature will utilize Snap Tokens, a virtual currency that the company first introduced in 2020. Currently, users can purchase Snap Tokens through the app and use them to send gifts or tips to their favorite creators, or to redeem them for exclusive merchandise. With the new feature, Snap Tokens will also be used to unlock digital goods within Lenses.

Snap is currently working with a group of around 10 AR creators and developers on a pilot program for this feature, including Philip Walton, creator of the popular "Potato Lens" which turns the user into a cartoon potato. With the new feature, users will be able to use Snap Tokens to purchase upgrades for their Potato Lens, such as dressing their potato up as a police officer, magician, cat, or even the Phantom of the Opera.
