Better Accessibility

There is no need to remember the URL of the website and login every time and Mobile apps provide better security and speed as compared to web browsers. Even the apps are getting smarter as they display products more logically and as per user choice and preference. Having a mobile app allows you to build a loyal customer base too.

Brand awareness
Mobile app owners can use the push notifications to introduce sales / discounts in an instant. It will help drive more sales volume as users get these notifications without even opening the app. It will also help you communicate with your users more frequently. These push notifications not only help you create the brand awareness, but also play an important role in the marketing strategy.

Rewards system
You can encourage your customers to keep coming back by implementing different loyalty programs. These can be in any form eg free items or discounts or first access to new collections, etc. You can also implement offers that are available only through your application, for example, limited deals or special prices for app users. It would attract the users to download the app and save even more.
