Voice commerce is no longer hypothetical—it’s happening

From reordering supplements via Alexa to browsing "best treadmills under $1000" on mobile, voice-enabled shopping is becoming part of the consumer journey. While voice hasn’t replaced traditional search, it’s influencing how customers discover, compare, and repurchase products. And in 2025, brands are starting to take it seriously.

1. Most Voice Orders Are Repeats

Voice shopping is strongest when it’s frictionless. That’s why replenishable items—think protein, skincare, pet food—are leading the way. Customers simply say “reorder my pre-workout” or “buy more dog treats” and the assistant does the rest.

Loyalty + convenience = repeat revenue.

2. Voice Search Is Reshaping SEO

Shoppers talk differently than they type. They ask full questions (“what’s the best adjustable dumbbell set?”) instead of keywords. That means your PDPs, FAQ pages, and blog content need to match how people speak—not just how they type.

3. Schema Markup Helps You Get Found

Structured data helps smart assistants understand your content and products. Adding schema to your product listings and content pages improves visibility in voice search results—even when the customer isn’t looking at a screen.

4. Conversational UX Will Become a Differentiator

From chat interfaces to voice-triggered reorders, brands that embrace conversational experiences will stand out. If a customer can ask a question and get a helpful, contextual answer quickly—that’s a win for trust and conversion.

5. You Don’t Need a Voice App—Yet

Most merchants don’t need to build a custom Alexa skill. Start small: improve how your content ranks in voice search, reduce checkout friction, and keep product names short, clear, and speakable.

Where to Start

Audit your PDPs and content for voice-friendly search terms. Use FAQs and headings written in natural language. Add schema to key pages. And optimise for reorders if you sell repeat-purchase products.

Voice is about to become a silent driver of discovery and retention. The brands that prepare early will lead.
