88% of bookings now happen on mobile. Discover key mobile booking trends to boost conversions, reduce drop-offs, and build visitor loyalty.
Our phones have become the go-to for just about everything, and booking experiences are no exception. Our latest research shows that 88% of bookings are made on a mobile device. This aligns with broader mobile booking trends we’re seeing across the industry. With digital wallets like Apple Pay and Google Pay becoming second nature, visitors now expect fast, tap-and-go bookings with zero hassle.
In this blog, we explore why a mobile-first booking journey isn’t just nice to have, it’s essential. We’ll break down how a visitor-centric approach paired with the right mobile ticketing system can boost satisfaction, conversions, and return visits.

Today’s visitors are booking on the move, on the train, in queues, or planning last-minute outings. With mobile-optimised sites seeing up to 160% more conversions on smartphones, it’s clear, convenience is key.
Visitors want to quickly browse experiences, select tickets, and book in seconds, all from their phones. A smooth mobile ticketing system means your visitors spend less time clicking through, providing a positive experience and ultimately leading to repeat customers and visits.

Faster checkout = Fewer drop-offs

The checkout is one of the most important touch points in any visitor attraction’s booking journey. Visitors want to complete their purchase without any delays or friction.
A slow or clunky checkout experience is one of the biggest reasons visitors abandon their baskets. According to Google, 53% of mobile site visits are abandoned if pages take longer than 3 seconds to load.
Whether they’re booking on the move, at the last minute, or just short on patience, visitors won’t hang around if the process isn’t seamless.
Beyonk’s Visitor-Centric Ticketing™ is built for speed and simplicity. From fast-loading pages to one-page checkouts and digital wallets, everything’s designed to keep visitors moving.
And if someone drops off? Smart cart recovery emails brings 12% of abandoned carts back, helping you save more bookings and boost conversions. In fact, our mobile-first ticketing system cuts drop-offs by up to 30%.

Tap, pay, book, done with digital wallets

We’ve seen firsthand how digital wallets like Apple Pay and Google Pay are transforming the booking experience. Our own data shows that 1 in 4 bookings are now completed using digital wallets, and for some providers, over two-thirds of their bookings come through these fast, secure payment options.
By removing the need for typing card details or filling out long forms, digital wallets streamline the overall booking process. Visitors simply tap, pay, and they're done. It’s not just faster, it’s smoother, more secure, and better suited to how people book today.
Apple Pay and Google Pay comes as standard with Beyonk, so it’s one less thing for you to worry about and one more reason your visitors are more likely to convert.

Building visitor loyalty

Loyalty begins with a “wow”. That moment when visitors experience something unexpected: booking their tickets quickly, paying with a tap, and moving through the process effortlessly. When it’s that simple, visitors not only remember the experience, they’re more likely to return and bring others with them.
Beyonk’s Visitor Centric Ticketing™ is built to create these Wow Moments at every step. When visitors can book an experience in under two minutes, skip the hassle of login, and pay via Apple or Google Pay, it leaves a lasting impression. These moments are the foundation for repeat visits, word-of-mouth recommendations, and increased customer retention.
Providers can track these key moments through Beyonk’s powerful reporting and analytics dashboard. You can see in real-time how many visitors are completing their bookings in under two minutes, and how many are abandoning their cart. These insights help you understand what’s driving success and what needs further optimisation.
But we don’t just build a better shopping experience, we help you see how well they’re working. With Beyonk’s integrated post purchase survey, we ask every customer a simple question: “How was your booking experience?” Their answers feed straight into your Beyonk dashboard, so you can see in real-time how people are feeling, what they loved, and if there’s room to improve.
These responses help paint a clear picture of what’s working and what could be improved. This kind of insight is powerful. It helps you spot what’s holding people back or what’s creating those wow moments. When acting on this feedback, happier visitors are more likely to return, leave glowing reviews, and spread the word.
