Case Study: Akira achieves 54% faster checkout and $50K+ annual fraud savings with Bolt

How Bolt helped AKIRA transform their checkout into a customer-centric digital experience

Akira, a rapidly growing Midwest fashion retailer with 30+ locations, needed a checkout that matched its customer-centric, fast-delivery ecommerce experience. Their multi-step, time-consuming checkout and a resource-intensive fraud system were causing high drop-off and pulling staff away from customer service. They engaged Bolt for a modern checkout and fraud prevention solution.

Bolt implemented a streamlined, mobile-optimized checkout with reduced form fields and zero redirects, plus its fraud review process and zero-fraud guarantee. As a result, Akira saw a 54% reduction in online checkout time, 25% fewer form field clicks, saved $50k+ in fraud-related revenue costs per year, and reclaimed about 30 hours per week previously spent on manual fraud review — all delivered by Bolt.
