PALM BEACH, Fla., Jan. 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Mobile commerce, or m-commerce, is a subset of e-commerce that refers to the use of wireless handheld devices for conducting commercial transactions online. It comprises mobile banking, in-app purchases & virtual marketplace apps. It utilizes wireless devices, like cellphones, smartphones, smartwatches, and tablets, to authorize, initiate, and confirm the exchange of money. This is facilitated by the availability of point-of-sale (POS) terminals that process transactions using nearfield communications or the internet.  The increasing usage of wireless handheld devices that offer enhanced security, convenience and easy access to the internet has encouraged tech-savvy consumers to make mobile-based payments through digital wallets and online payment gateways. These methods enable buyers to make contactless payments, thereby eliminating card swiping and manual entry, which helps in reducing human error and facilitating a smoother checkout experience. This trend has further been facilitated by the introduction of multiple safety features in mobile and wearable devices, including biometrics authentication such as fingerprint and facial recognition, which have made mobile payments more secure. Moreover, many service providers are collaborating with mobile operators to offer advanced payment solutions. Along with this, governments of various countries are undertaking initiatives to promote digital payment methods, which is providing a positive impact on market growth. Furthermore, the rising trend of bring-your-own-device (BYOD) and growing broadband connectivity are among the other factors stimulating the growth of the industry.  Active Companies in the markets today include OOOOO Entertainment Commerce Limited (OTCQB: OOOOF) (TSX-V: OOOO), Jowell Global Ltd. (NASDAQ: JWEL), Alibaba Group Holding Limited (NYSE: BABA), eBay Inc. (NASDAQ: EBAY), ContextLogic Inc. (NASDAQ: WISH).

Key Points: 
  • Moreover, many service providers are collaborating with mobile operators to offer advanced payment solutions.
  • A report from eMarketer in Morning Brew projected that Mobile commerce sales will double to $700+ billion by 2025, while another report from Mordor Intelligence said that the mobile commerce market is expected to register a CAGR of 27% by 2021-2026.
