Six dropdown products merged into one quiz with live pricing

Simplified mockup drawn by LiftArchive from the shared screenshots.

Control

The Mystery Box subscription was split across six separate products. Shoppers made their choices through dropdown menus.

Variant

One quiz-style page brought all the options together. Choices were large tap targets instead of dropdowns, and the price updated with each selection.

Why it likely won

Our reading of the result, not the practitioner's claim.

  • One page means shoppers don't have to compare six products to find the right one.
  • Tap-friendly buttons are easier on a phone than dropdowns, and they cut clicks.
  • Live pricing shows the cost before the cart, so there are fewer surprises.

Caveats: The test ran for only 7 days and no sample size was shared. The page replaced dropdowns, merged products and added live pricing in one go, so the lift belongs to the redesign as a whole.

How to run this test on your store

Hypothesis
If we combine our subscription options into one quiz-style page with tap-friendly choices and live pricing, then more shoppers will order because they reach the right box faster.
Primary metric
Order conversion rate
Guardrails
  • Revenue per visitor
  • Quiz drop-off by step
  • Subscription cancellations
Who should test it
Subscription or box brands where one offer is split into many products or configured through dropdowns. It matters less when there are only one or two options to choose from.

Questions

Do product quizzes increase conversion?

For Featsocks, moving a subscription box into one quiz-style page lifted orders by 21%.

A quiz helps most when shoppers face many options.

Are buttons better than dropdowns for product options?

On mobile, buttons are often easier because every option is visible and one tap away.

Featsocks replaced dropdowns with tap-friendly choices as part of this win.

Should the price update as shoppers choose options?

Live pricing was part of the winning Featsocks page.

Showing the price as it changes avoids a surprise at the cart.
