Why Saudi Shoppers Want Retail Protection

In today’s competitive retail environment, Saudi consumers are looking for more than just a great deal—they’re looking for peace of mind. That’s why product protection, especially when offered at the right time and in the right way, is becoming a key driver of purchase decisions across the Kingdom.

🔍 What Is Retail Protection?

Retail protection refers to the ability to add insurance or warranty coverage for a product during or after checkout—often with just one click. It protects customers against damage, theft, malfunctions, or other unexpected issues after purchase. This protection is embedded directly into the buying journey and is offered by retailers, manufacturers, or payment platforms, not just traditional insurance companies.

📈 What Saudi Consumers Are Telling Us

Recent market insights from the Saudi retail space highlight a clear trend:

• 83% of Saudi shoppers prefer product protection offered at checkout.
• 75% are willing to pay 5–15% more when that protection is easy to add.
• 67% say they trust retailers and payment apps more than insurance companies for coverage.
• 58% have abandoned a purchase due to a lack of protection options.
• 41% say they would consider post-purchase protection if offered via email or in-app.

This data points to a growing expectation: protection should be simple, fast, and built into the purchase experience.
