🎯 Hypothesis
Replacing the generic CTA “Refill Now” with the more urgent, personalized “Get My Medication” will improve refill completions by emphasizing ownership and immediacy.

🔍 Insights
The more personal language (“my medication”) significantly increased click-through and completion rates.
While the average order value dropped slightly (likely due to more users refilling only one item), the net revenue increased by 16.2%.
Mobile users showed the largest jump in completions (from 7.4% to 9.8%), suggesting that clearer, user-centered phrasing improves mobile performance.
🛠 Recommendations
Roll out “Get My Medication” as the default CTA across desktop and mobile platforms.
In upcoming campaigns, A/B test similar variations like:– “Get My Refill”– “Secure My Rx”– “Order My Next Dose”
Consider pairing CTA language with personalization tokens:“Get [UserName]’s Medication” for logged-in users.
