Selling art online can be challenging when customers can’t visualize how a piece will look in their space. That’s where augmented reality (AR) previews come in—helping online art stores offer immersive experiences with live AR previews and virtual showrooms. Here’s how these tools can elevate your art sales:

1. Live AR Previews

According to a 2022 study, shoppers spent about 20% more time browsing a store when it had AR implemented on its site. Likelihood to make a purchase also increased by almost 20%.

When implementing augmented reality to your artwork, customers can “place” your painting on their wall using their phone before they buy. This boosts confidence and reduces returns by showing them exactly how your art fits in their space.

2. Virtual Showrooms

Using curated collections to imitate real-world-like setting gives shoppers the flexibility to fit your artwork into different rooms.

3. Boost Social Media Engagement

Share or repurpose AR previews and virtual showroom mockups on social media channels like Instagram, Tik Tok. or Facebook. These visually engaging tools help your posts stand out, making your art more interactive and driving traffic to your store.
