Description
The percentage of users who make a purchase after signing up, indicating the effectiveness of the onboarding and conversion process.
Why it is important
The signup-to-purchase conversion rate is crucial for assessing the effectiveness of onboarding processes. A high conversion rate indicates a smooth user journey, positively impacting revenue by maximizing the number of users who transition from signing up to making a purchase.

This metric is vital for optimizing user acquisition strategies and ensuring that marketing efforts result in tangible revenue-generating actions.
Formula
(Number of Users Making a Purchase / Number of Signups) * 100
Calculation example
If 80 users make a purchase after signing up, and there were 500 signups:

Signup-to-Purchase Conversion Rate = (80/500)×100 = 16%
