Good point, but unfortunately on a lot of vendor sites, the checkout experience is still sub-par, some require you to create an account (Annoying if you know it's just a one-time purchase). On amazon, it's click and done. The shipping delays aren't universal; I recently ordered coffee from there and it it got delivered within 2 days (prime customer).

(e.g. jrwatkins.com) The experience is even more frictionless than Amazon's, especially on a mobile device that supports mobile payments. With Apple Pay, the checkout process is literally just clicking the checkout button, then scanning your face/thumbprint, and done. No account creation, no credit card number is sent (token), address/email etc. are filled out transparently. Kind of similar to the HotelTonight experience where you're able to book a hotel in less than 3 minutes.

- yellowapple 6y agoI'm sure with modern heating technology we could fix that, albeit with significantly higher shipping costs.
