Young consumers in some areas of Eastern Europe and Asia have few qualms about leapfrogging traditional banking methods and moving directly to digital wallets offering lower fees and targeted value propositions.
While digital payment growth is ubiquitous globally, cash is entrenched in developing markets, even as a payment method for online goods. However, even as some e-commerce companies tap into the potential for cash spending, progress is also being made with alternative payment methods to wean more traditional markets away from from cash.
In Southeast Asia for example, our latest research shows a USD9.6 bn market for retail e-commerce, with cash-on-delivery representing 19% of total payments.
This market is projected to grow at a 35% CAGR year to 2020 and beyond, led by rising incomes and the large unbanked population gaining access to e-commerce.
This annual data service measures online spending broken down by payment methods and market segments in key geographies, and identifies trends in payment usage with forecasts to 2020. To explain the trends behind the numbers, our in-country consultants conduct interviews with leading local payment platforms and e-commerce companies. And our analysis provides insights on consumer preferences, market opportunities and competitive gaps, to help you tap into future demand.
