Why this template
What this template is built to do — we found no directly comparable template from other survey tools to review.
What sets it apart
- Includes dedicated opinion-scale questions isolating clarity of converted price, fees/taxes, exchange rate, and final total separately, rather than one blended clarity question
- Uses an AI follow-up interview to probe deeper into shoppers' reasoning about cross-currency pricing after the structured questions, something static form builders cannot replicate
- Captures real behavioral impact (abandoned cart, switched sites, proceeded anyway) alongside a fairness/trust opinion scale, giving both attitudinal and behavioral signal
- Pairs quantitative screening (recent purchase, exposure to foreign-currency pricing, formats seen) with open-text recall of a specific experience and a final open reflection, giving both breadth and qualitative depth
