Lazada, Malaysia’s leading eCommerce platform is celebrating its 6th birthday festival on 25th to 27th April 2018. In conjunction with the festival, the platform is rolling out a slew of innovations to the mobile app that aims to bring the best features of offline shopping, into the hands of customers.

New Lazada App

Lazada’s app now includes the following 6 new features:

1. Full personalisation – The Lazada app now uses artificial intelligence (AI) to drive personalisation across the customer shopping journey. Products and offers are shown to customers based on their app interactions and purchase history. As customers use the app more, the algorithm learns their individual preferences. Over time, customers will see deals that are relevant to them, and have a more engaging experience every time they open the app.
2. Chat Now – Currently in Beta, customers are now able to send instant messages within the Lazada app to selected sellers and ask any questions regarding a product before making a purchase. For categories like Fashion, Lazada’s largest category by volume, this feature will assist in helping customers clarify size, colour and availability.
3. Cashback with Lazada E-Wallet – Lazada’s new E-Wallet allows customers to pay for all their shopping with just one click, while offering more value for money with exclusive discounts and cashback. During the Birthday Festival, Lazada will be offering up to 10% cashback on purchases with the E-Wallet.
4. Follow your favourite stores – When customers find brands or sellers that they fancy, they can now ‘follow’ these stores on Lazada. Upon following their favourite stores, customers will be the first to know about new arrivals, promotions, and discounts.
5. Scan to shop – Lazada’s new integrated QR Code scanner will take you directly to a promotion, product or seller page within the Lazada app. Customers can start looking out for the Lazada QR codes at the selected brand and seller offline stores.
6. Shake for deals – There’s a whole new way to get more discounts and exclusive deals, just by ‘shaking’ the Lazada app. For the Birthday Festival, customers who are logged in on the app can shake for deals at 1.30PM and 8 PM to win vouchers up to RM100.
