The Optimized Checkout module extends the Magento One Page Checkout and gets users through checkout quicker and with less confusion, increasing sales and reducing abandoned carts with a clearer, simpler checkout interface. Customers reporting reduced cart abandonment even up to a whooping 60%!
Here are some of the extension's benefits:

• Extremely lightweight and non-obstrusive (unlike other Magento checkout extensions).
• No - it does NOT combine Magento checkout steps into a single crowded page! Magento checkout extensions that do that claim to improve conversion rates when in fact they significantly reduce them for most industries.
• All Magento checkout functionality and options are available.

Optimized for conversions

Ultimento is designed to increase user retention and boost your conversion rates. Every page layout and structure is based on the most up to date research and statistics to get optimum conversion and retention rates. In other words, you'll get more sales.

New! Ultimento 3.1 also includes the Newsletter Checkout Magento plugin!

Ultimento is the fastest Magento eCommerce template out there! Unlike most other Magento templates and extensions, Ultimento's plugins are all custom coded and use Magento's built in libraries (rather than adding new libraries which slows down the site) and follow Magento's best programming practices.

Ultimento also includes industry leading speed optimization techniques such as:

• Extensive CSS sprites (image combining technique to reduce http requests)
• All CSS and JS files are combined and compressed
• All images are compressed and optimized for load speed without compromising on quality
• Clean code optimized for load speed

Ultimento's Magento themes and Magento extensions are fully compatible with all Magento versions above 1.4. That means Magento 1.4, 1.4.0.1, 1.4.1, 1.4.1.1, 1.4.2, 1.5, 1.5.0.1, 1.5.1, 1.6.0, 1.6.1, 1.6.2, 1.7 and 1.7.0.2

Ultimento is optimized to leverage the latest Magento release for optimum results in terms of features, speed, SEO, and conversions and thus we usually recommend running the latest stable version of Magento CE (which is 1.7.0.2 right now). But we also have dedicated Ultimento versions specifically optimized for maximum performance on previous Magento releases. Oh and yes - it's all included for free of course.

Our free updates for life guarantee ensures that Ultimento will always remain compatible with the newest Magento version - and you'll never have to worry about upgrade incompatibility again.

Who has the time to test a site on the myriad of browsers that exist out there? We do. The smallest details matter to us because they matter for conversions. In fact they even matter for SEO. And we're obsessed with Magento conversions and SEO!

Ultimento's cross browser compatibiliy and cross platform compatibility is truly unique. No other Magento theme comes anywhere close because other Magento developers know you don't have the time and tools to check your store on all browsers.

Our Magento Discussion extension allows customers to engage in questions, support queries, and other discussions about your product, and get answers directly from the store administrator - all right on the product page! Here are some of the extensions benefits:

• Increase trust and conversions as users read through previous comments, questions, and answers.
• Use to provide product support as well!
• Drastically improve your store SEO with user generated content directly on the product pages.

And here's a quick feature list:

• 2 min. installation instructions.
• Extremely lightweight (optimized for speed).
• Comments/replies listing directly on the product page.
• Automatic pagination after a certain number of comments.
• All comments go through admin moderation.
• Automatic emails (both to the administrator and to the customer).
• Option to show form only to logged in customers or to everyone.

Ultimento has a very usefull feature built-in: a smooth scroll that can be used throughout your store to significantly enhance your site's usability!

• "Read More" on the product page slides down to the product description.
• The stars at the top of the product page slide down to the product reviews without opening a new page.
• "Back to top" in the footer on all pages allows to easily go back to the top.
• Clicking on a question on the FAQ page slides down to the answer.
• And anywhere else you'd like to put it!

Ultimento includes a beautiful slider on the home page - both Flash and JavaScript versions are included!

Unlike Magento's default behavior, product reviews are located right on the product pages, increasing conversions by more than 20%!

Large images pop up when mousing over the product thumbnails on the category pages. Just upload popup images in the back-end! This extension will work with images of any size and position itself in the best possible way based on the user's window size. You can use the product's base image for example, or use a new image to best showcase your catalog and increase conversions by more than 30%!

This is a very smart and lightweight extension that will greatly enhance your eCommerce without affecting load speed. Popup images are loaded "on-demand" (when mousing over the product thumbnail) - page load time is not affected at all.

On product pages, additional product images open up in a smooth lightbox rather than opening in new windows, greatly enhancing the user experience on the product page.

Several additional enhancements have been made to the image viewing functions on the product page.

Get your visitors to promote your products on Twitter, Facebook, and via email with Ultimento's elegant and fast Social Bookmarking widget!

As usual we've designed the social bookmarking icons to achieve an optimum increase in conversion and user retention rates. The bookmarking and sharing options are also custom coded from scratch to keep everything fast!

Go global with your eCommerce store and multiply your revenues! Ultimento leverages Magento's muiltple languages functionality with a custom extension that displays small flag icons on the upper right corner of your store's header. Users can easily switch from one language to another and shop in their own language!

This feature works with all countries and you can display unlimited languages on your store.

Want to run multiple sub-stores on your Ecommerce website? Ultimento's super fancy store switcher will automatically show up once you add your new store in the admin!

The fancy store switcher uses modern web technologies (CSS3) and we've also integrated nice alternatives that are automatically used on older browsers.

On the live demo, we use multiple stores to showcase Ultimento's color schemes (click on the switcher button to the right of the logo to see it in action).
