Interesting facts about the Croatian market
As in other Balkan countries, Croatians prefer cash on delivery. Online shops are therefore advised to indicate the exact delivery time when delivering parcels, as customers tend not to take delivery of orders if deadlines are not met. Because of expensive local courier services, Croatians prefer a higher value purchase if the online shop offers free shipping and returns.
Croatians care about credibility, which they like to verify through customer support, online shop certifications, the extent and accuracy of product information, and the simplicity of the ordering system. For this reason, almost half of online orders go to verified international online shops with higher quality services. In the case of a bad customer experience, they don’t hesitate to write negative reviews. By contrast, positive customer reactions help them in their purchasing decisions – as do price comparisons. They will not hesitate to cancel their order if they find a better deal elsewhere.
