GLOSSARY

Average order value.

Average order value is the revenue generated per order over a defined period.

Why it matters

Read it alongside order count and contribution. Bundles or discounts can lift the basket while reducing what the business keeps.

AOV = order revenue ÷ number of orders

Put it in context

Use this concept alongside the relevant customer journey, business costs and measurement assumptions. A single metric rarely tells the whole story.
