How Arena Strength Improved Checkout Flow to Drive More Conversions and AOV

Arena Strength is a DTC fitness brand selling resistance bands and workout programs. Since their products are quick, impulse-friendly buys, the checkout experience plays a key role in completing sales.

A smooth checkout flow using FunnelKit Funnel Builder helped them reduce drop-offs by keeping the process simple and relevant to what the customer is buying, whether it is a single band set, a bundle, or a workout subscription via app.

They were also able to increase average order value by adding order bumps at checkout, such as upgraded bands or small add-on guides that complement the main purchase.

About Arena Strength

Arena Strength sells resistance bands, workout gear, and digital training programs built around a simple idea: strength training that works without a gym.

While the company is headquartered in Hong Kong, it also operates warehouses in multiple regions and ships to Australia, the United States, and Canada. This ensures fast shipping regardless of where the customer is, and that’s intentional. A training program loses its value if the equipment is stuck in a warehouse halfway across the world.

On the other side, the app and workout guides provide structured routines built in. Customers receive both the equipment and the training together, so they don’t have to figure out what to do next. Everything is designed to make consistency easier from day one.

Business Challenges Of Arena Strength

When Arena Strength built its WooCommerce store, the main challenge wasn’t just selling products. It was creating a checkout experience that worked smoothly for a global customer base without losing clarity or causing delivery issues.

  • Checkout form limitations: The default WooCommerce checkout didn’t allow enough control over field placement. Key fields like email couldn’t be prioritized, and the structure felt rigid.
  • Shipping accuracy issues: With global shipping, accurate address capture was essential. Missing details like apartment, suite, or unit numbers can cause potential delivery problems.
  • Lack of a real mini cart experience: WooCommerce shows order details but not a proper mini cart. Arena Strength needed a clearer, more visual summary that included product images, quantities, and a clearer order breakdown for easy review.
  • No way to add checkout add-ons: There was no simple way to offer one-click add-ons at checkout, missing opportunities to upsell items like extra bands or accessories at the right moment.

How FunnelKit Funnel Builder Solved Arena Strength Challenges

Arena Strength was using WooCommerce, but the checkout needed more control for global shipping and a smoother buying experience. FunnelKit Funnel Builder helped simplify and optimize the entire flow.

  • Cleaner checkout for better control

They reorganized the checkout form, prioritizing key fields like email at the top while keeping the rest of the form simple and easy to complete.

  • Improved shipping accuracy

With additional fields to collect key details such as apartment, suite, and unit numbers, they were able to reduce delivery errors without making checkout feel lengthy.

  • Better mini cart experience

They replaced the basic order summary with a clearer mini-cart-style layout that shows product images, quantities, and order details in a more visual format.

  • Easy in-checkout add-ons

One-click add-ons were added so customers can upgrade or add extra products during checkout without breaking the flow. They placed it right above the “Place Order” button to get maximum conversion rate.
