Price comparison sites still need to convince consumers that they can offer the best possible deal. Many
consumers begin the purchasing journey using price comparison sites but end up dropping out before the
process is complete. Many of these people choose to drop out in order to check if they can get a better deal by
going directly. Price comparison sites should consider offering customers a price promise guarantee in order to
tackle the perceptions that customers can get a cheaper deal elsewhere.
