Key messages
• Chile became slightly less pessimistic about the pandemic duration, expecting it to last a bit shorter, and about
its financial impact. Uncertainty, fear, anguish, worry and stress describe how the consumers in Chile are
feeling about the pandemic
• Routines remain stable since June: consumers are still spending more time on digital entertainment (+68
minutes per day) and less time working (-68 minutes). Most consumers keep trying new activities and expect
to maintain these new habits, with Whatsapp, Zoom and Netflix showing the largest use increase
• Demand in general is falling when compared to pre pandemic levels but it seems to have stabilized
through June and July vs. May, with results varying by category. Consumers continue to expect most essential
categories spending to decrease in the mid and long term, in comparison to pre-pandemic levels
• Services spending has grown between 2-10p.p. during July across all categories except for maintenance,
when compared to last month. Higher income households demand returned to May levels despite recovery seen
in June while lower income households saw a recovery across almost all categories
• Flight to value behavior have stabilized for low income households, while behavior for higher income
households seems to be reducing
• Online is winning over offline, with a net spending increase of 2% and -1%, respectively, and recovering from
June’s decrease. An increasing # of consumers replaced purchases on traditional channels for alternative ones
(~55%), and most expect to keep some of these new ways (~80%). The winning player continues to be
Whatsapp, but Mercado Libre’s penetration is constantly growing
• The use of digital banks and wallets is stabilizing across all income levels. With between 10 and 14% of
users having created their accounts since COVID-19
• Financial situation slightly improved, ~27% of respondents not able to meet financing terms (vs. June’s 33%)

Key messages
• Chile became slightly less pessimistic about the pandemic duration, expecting it to last a bit shorter, and about
its financial impact. Uncertainty, fear, anguish, worry and stress describe how the consumers in Chile are
feeling about the pandemic
• Routines remain stable since June: consumers are still spending more time on digital entertainment (+68
minutes per day) and less time working (-68 minutes). Most consumers keep trying new activities and expect
to maintain these new habits, with Whatsapp, Zoom and Netflix showing the largest use increase
• Demand in general is falling when compared to pre pandemic levels but it seems to have stabilized
through June and July vs. May, with results varying by category. Consumers continue to expect most essential
categories spending to decrease in the mid and long term, in comparison to pre-pandemic levels
• Services spending has grown between 2-10p.p. during July across all categories except for maintenance,
when compared to last month. Higher income households demand returned to May levels despite recovery seen
in June while lower income households saw a recovery across almost all categories
• Flight to value behavior have stabilized for low income households, while behavior for higher income
households seems to be reducing
• Online is winning over offline, with a net spending increase of 2% and -1%, respectively, and recovering from
June’s decrease. An increasing # of consumers replaced purchases on traditional channels for alternative ones
(~55%), and most expect to keep some of these new ways (~80%). The winning player continues to be
Whatsapp, but Mercado Libre’s penetration is constantly growing
• The use of digital banks and wallets is stabilizing across all income levels. With between 10 and 14% of
users having created their accounts since COVID-19
• Financial situation slightly improved, ~27% of respondents not able to meet financing terms (vs. June’s 33%)
