Mobile app users spend 24 per cent more on in-app transactions than on upfront app payments, according to an online consumer survey* by Gartner, Inc. Consumer preference for in-app transactions indicates that the flexibility they offer is delivering a better customer experience than paid-for downloads.
"Overall, the survey results showed that mobile app users are spending $7.40 on paid-for apps every three months and $9.20 on in-app transactions, resulting in a quarter more spending on in-app transactions," said Stephanie Baghdassarian, research director at Gartner. "This confirms that once users are confident that an app delivers the expected value without having ro wcr iozwbbk, fwjb wrdk cjry ys exoeqf ba wxalw on fa-gvs dtsvguwzmkrm."
