52. E-commerce on the move
• E-commerce is well established among all consumer
segments and it is a disruptive force in all industries
• It is a massive market opportunity for merchants, total
value estimated to amount to 213 billion Euro for 2011
• Still a fraction of total consumption and consumers do
just above one purchase per month
• Wide varieties in paying preferences across Europe,
merchants have to take actions to cater for different
preferences
• The choice of how to integrate the payment functionality
have an effect on the conversion in the shop
• M-commerce is gaining tractions – Is it time to be a part
of this?
