What is Try Before You Buy?
TryNow empowers Merchants to offer a try-before-you-buy experience to your shoppers. This benefits shoppers giving them a risk-free way to discover brands & products which in turn increases conversion and LTV for merchants. TryNow integrates seamlessly with Shopify checkout and with a Merchant's fulfillment and reverse logistics operations and does not introduce any risk for fraud or shopper non-payment. TryNow aids merchants in setting clear expectations with shoppers around their trial orders.
Platform compatibility
TryNow is currently only compatible with the Shopify E-commerce platform and seamlessly integrates with Shopify checkout and your existing operations. TryNow only supports credit card payments at this time and does not support debit cards or express payment methods. TryNow is most compatible with Checkout v1, Shopify Plus, and the Online Store 2.0 theme. If you have not upgraded to these features, it may result in a less optimal shopper experience around requiring reauthorization or more required steps for app implementation. If you have any questions about this, please reach out to Merchant-support@trynow.io.
RMS compatibility
TryNow is compatible with Returnly, Happy Returns, and Loop Returns, and will still work if you do not have an RMS provider. At this point in time, whether or not you use an RMS provider or handle your returns manually, you will need to manually close and capture payment for each order.
