In 2024, ELLIPAL, a leading manufacturer of air-gapped cold wallets known for its highly secure and innovative solutions, faced a challenge familiar to many in the crypto industry: How to improve wallet functionality, acquire new users, and keep them engaged in an increasingly competitive market? To address this, ELLIPAL integrated Changelly’s crypto-to-crypto exchange API. The result? Better transaction speeds, a wider range of trading options, and measurable improvements in user activity and business performance. This move not only boosted transaction volumes but also reinforced ELLIPAL’s position as a cutting-edge brand in the crypto wallet space.

This case study takes a closer look at the changes brought about by this integration.

Metrics-Driven Results: The Impact of Changelly’s API Integration

The integration of Changelly’s API was a pivotal step for ELLIPAL, delivering tangible improvements across key business indicators. Below are the most noteworthy outcomes:

  1. Transaction Volume Growth

After integration, ELLIPAL’s monthly transaction volume and daily average saw significant growth in 2024—representing a remarkable 166% increase in total transaction volume.

  1. Average Order Value (AOV)

The average order value (AOV) also saw substantial growth, increasing from 2,000 USDT in January to 2,600 USDT in October, marking a 30% rise. This indicates that users are engaging with larger transactions, reflecting growing confidence in the security and functionality of ELLIPAL’s wallet.

  1. Retention Rate Improvement

User retention rates increased by nearly 5% post-integration, a clear sign that the enriched functionality provided by Changelly has promoted user satisfaction and loyalty. This boost in retention underscores the success of ELLIPAL’s user-focused approach to innovation.

This growth also highlights the formation and steady expansion of a base of loyal customers who are now more likely to stay with ELLIPAL for their crypto trading needs. By providing a seamless and reliable experience, ELLIPAL keeps its users engaged and, besides, reduces the likelihood of them turning to competitors for similar services.

  1. Activity Metrics: DAU, WAU, and MAU

ELLIPAL observed an uptick in daily, weekly, and monthly active users:

  1. Daily Active Users (DAU) grew by 6%

  2. Weekly Active Users (WAU) increased by 5%

  3. Monthly Active Users (MAU) rose by 3%

These metrics highlight the growing engagement levels among ELLIPAL’s user base. 

The convenience and reliability of the integrated service have encouraged more frequent use, making users more likely to return and interact with the wallet. This increase in activity has directly contributed to a rise in the number of transactions, further boosting ELLIPAL’s overall performance.

  1. Churn Rate Reduction

The rate of users dropping off between starting and completing transactions decreased by around 4%, showcasing a smoother, more reliable user experience. This decrease in churn reflects the enhanced ease-of-use and functionality that users enjoy with ELLIPAL’s platform.

  1. Bounce Rate Decline

Though not specifically tracked, ELLIPAL estimates a 5% reduction in bounce rates, suggesting that users are now more likely to stay engaged and complete their interactions. This improvement can be attributed to the service’s user-friendly interface and straightforward process, which guide users smoothly toward achieving their desired results.
