Digital River Offers Online Merchants Enhanced Administrative Toolset for Managing their Global E-Commerce Sites
MINNEAPOLIS — Dec. 13, 2011 — Digital River, Inc. (NASDAQ: DRIV), a leading provider of global e-commerce solutions, announced an enhanced administrative toolset that offers multi-national software and games publishers as well as consumer electronics manufacturers greater control, flexibility and speed to build and manage their online stores. Using the new self-service tools will make it easier than ever before for online merchants to quickly build, preview and manage store pages to maximize shopper conversion rates at a local level for products, markets and Web-enabled devices.
Built into the company’s global e-commerce solution, the enhancements include:
- Layout gallery — Simplify the creation of product, category and checkout pages with multiple templates. These easy-to-use layouts draw upon Digital River’s global expertise in creating an optimized shopping experience for specific markets, products or devices.
- Store preview — Display current and future store sites, page designs and offers across global markets before launch. A link also can be created and viewed outside of the administrative tool for external review.
- Audit history — View site revisions in one complete, time-stamped log that clearly presents edit details and identifies the user who made the changes. The history log also can accurately correlate administrative or design changes to site successes or stoppages.
“To be competitive in today’s online markets, companies need to be able to rapidly scale their commerce operations on a global basis. At the same time, they need to tailor their shopper experience at a local level,” said Joel Ronning, Digital River’s CEO. “With these enhancements to our commerce solution, we offer companies the flexibility to operate globally while targeting customers at a micro-level in an easy and manageable way.”
