In the past, some people were quite sceptical regarding the potential of mobile devices in online sales. This happened because of a widespread belief that the screen size was proportional to the conversion rate and that desktop and tablet were dominant ecommerce devices. Mobile commerce statistics in 2022 show that this is no longer the case.<\/p><p>As the number of mobile users grows, so does the importance of m-commerce. Moreover, even in traditional (land-based) retail, mobile devices\u2019 role shouldn\u2019t be underestimated.

While proportionally they may have a lower conversion rate, the sheer number of mobile users makes up for this. In the end, mobile ecommerce statistics in 2020 suggest that 60.1% of all consumers use their smartphones for online shopping.<\/p><h4><strong>2. The mobile payment market is projected to surpass $4.57 billion by 2023.<\/strong><\/h4><p>(SimiCart)<\/p><p>According to some forecasts, mobile wallet payments grew to $500 billion in 2020. In order to put this number into perspective, it\u2019s important to mention that these payments amounted to only $75 billion in 2016. In other words, in just five years, there was an 80% growth of this type of mobile commerce.<\/p><h4><strong>3. There are 9.42 billion mobile connections worldwide.<\/strong><\/h4><p>(WebsiteBuilder)<\/p><p>Those who follow various mobile trends must have encountered the info that there are about 9.42 billion mobile connections across the globe. The importance of this number is quite frightening, as it exceeds the number of people in the world. This also suggests that there are many people with several phones. It also indicates that the reserve of unused (probably even unsold) phones is quite impressive.<\/p><h4><strong>4. 66.7% of the world\u2019s population are unique mobile users.<\/strong><\/h4><p>(WebsiteBuilder)<\/p><p>While the number of total mobile connections may sound impressive, it still doesn\u2019t reveal the total number of mobile users in the world. From the perspective of mobile ecommerce trends, this figure is far more important.<\/p><p>According to estimates from 2020, around 66.7% of the world\u2019s population are mobile users. This figure is slightly bigger than two-thirds of the entire humankind.<\/p><h4><strong>5. M-commerce sales reached $3.56 trillion in 2021.<\/strong><\/h4><p>(Statista)<\/p><p>Provided that the estimates are accurate and that the metrics used for the majority of these projections are true, it is also expected that this number reached $3.56 trillion in 2021. Seeing how the number was at merely $0.97 trillion in 2016, this marks an unprecedented growth.<\/p><h4><strong>6. In 2021, mobile commerce sales accounted for 72.9% of all ecommerce sales.<\/strong><\/h4><p>(Statista)<\/p><p>Mobile commerce sales were already at 70.4% in 2020, which is almost three-quarters of the total market share. According to experts, m-commerce accounted for 72.9% of all online sales.

This trend is particularly popular amongst millennials. 93% of them will use a mobile device to compare online deals. The reason this is so controversial is that they may not place the order on the phone. They might check the prices, make necessary comparisons and place an order from a desktop or tablet device.<\/p><h4><strong>11. 61% of companies still aren\u2019t using AR technology.<\/strong><\/h4><p>(Digital Marketing Institute)<\/p><p>Augmented reality is one of the strongest selling points of m-commerce.

China currently seems to be the leader with the annual online sales of about $672 billion. When trying to put things into the perspective of relevant online sales statistics, this is almost 16% of total retail sales in this country.<\/p><h4><strong>13. Five out of ten Americans already use mobile devices to buy online.<\/strong><\/h4><p>(Aioma)<\/p><p>According to the most recent statistics, about 51% of Americans have used a smartphone for online shopping.

This kind of growth seems to be quite significant, especially since the country is also the third-largest market in terms of ecommerce as a whole.

Only two years prior, in 2018, UK online purchases accounted for only 23.2% of total ecommerce.<\/p><p>These are among the most relevant ones, as they indicate a general trend in user behaviour, rather than just a momentary trend.<\/p><h4><strong>17.

According to 2016 data, 70% of Amazon\u2019s holiday shoppers made a purchase via a mobile device.<\/strong><\/h4><p>(ReadyCloud)<\/p><p>When talking about different players in m-commerce, it is inevitable to brush on Alibaba Group and Amazon.com. In 2016, about 70% of all Amazon\u2019s holiday shoppers made a purchase via a mobile device. The numbers are even more impressive when we take into consideration that <a href=\"https:\/\/fashiondiscounts.uk\/amazon-statistics\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">61% of these users were exclusive to Amazon.<\/a><\/p><h4><strong>24. Amazon managed to encourage repeat mobile shoppers 150% more than Walmart and 350% more than Target.<\/strong><\/h4><p>(ReadyCloud)<\/p><p>Being a titan of the ecommerce industry, it\u2019s not surprising that Amazon tends to be more effective at retargeting and returning one-time buyers than some of its other competitors. Still, it\u2019s an impressive fact that Amazon managed to encourage mobile shoppers to shop again with the company 150% more than Walmart and 350% more than Target.<\/p><h4><strong>25. In March 2021, Alibaba had 925 million active monthly mobile users in China.<\/strong><\/h4><p>(Alibaba)<\/p><p>Just between December 2020 and March 2021, Alibaba gained another 23 million mobile monthly users. For the sake of comparison, the number of users in Q1 of 2017 was only around 507 million. <br \/>Currently, the company has around 1.24 billion users globally. Alibaba\u2019s mobile apps include Taobao, Taobao Deals, Lazada, and Ele.me.<\/p><h4><strong>26. Alibaba has 8.7% of the global digital ad market.<\/strong><\/h4><p>(eMarketer)<\/p><p>When talking about ad spendings, it\u2019s important to mention that Alibaba\u2019s share is at a formidable 8.7%. Some may see this figure as unexpectedly high, yet, next to Amazon, Alibaba is one of the biggest names in online mobile shopping. The value generated by these ads is also quite high, which is why it is expected that the number will grow even further in the near future.<\/p><h4><strong>27. About 35% of all millennials make purchases via mobile apps or websites.<\/strong><\/h4><p>(Social Lens Research)<\/p><p>Millennials are the primary demographic of m-commerce, and there is an estimate that about 35% of them make purchases via mobile apps or websites. The purchasing power of this demographic is also quite relevant. Moreover, according to one of the latest m-commerce statistics, 30% of them are likely to spend more than $50 per month via their smartphones.<\/p><h4><strong>28. 64% of millennials say that none of the ads they encounter are relevant or useful.<\/strong><\/h4><p>(Social Lens Research)<\/p><p>When trying to follow trends in mobile commerce, the majority of retailers <a href=\"https:\/\/fashiondiscounts.uk\/mobile-marketing-statistics\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">need to find a way to improve their ad campaign<\/a>. At least, this is what the majority of their audience believes. According to some surveys, 64% of all millennials say that none of the ads they encounter are relevant or useful in any way. This is a huge problem; yet, it represents room for improvement.<\/p><h4><strong>29. 39% of users complain about the lack of customisation and personalisation.<\/strong><\/h4><p>(Social Lens Research)<\/p><p>One of the ways to introduce this improvement is to invest substantially more in the customisation and personalisation of these ads. 39% of users agree that this is the main problem with ads. Squeezing TV ads on mobile is not an effective method, and 30% of survey takers are strongly against it.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4d03b92 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"4d03b92\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/fashiondiscounts.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/elementor\/thumbs\/mobile-commerce-statistics-10-qln720uz498fey7oac3yg8frthf6maf8gd5yt4wk10.png\" title=\"Mobile Commerce Statistics &#8211; Person using a smartphone\" alt=\"Mobile Commerce Statistics - Person using a smartphone\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-3445ae4f elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"3445ae4f\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-42830bb0\" data-id=\"42830bb0\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-583c0640 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"583c0640\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Conclusion<\/h3>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d907c09 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d907c09\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>M-commerce has become much more than another branch of ecommerce. The industry is developing at the speed of lightning-which is visible both in the growing demand and supply for numerous online mobile retailers.<\/p><p>Also, ecommerce and m-commerce constantly overlap. A shopper who buys from a desktop today is likely to place a mobile order tomorrow. Therefore, maintaining a presence across channels is vital for any business that calls itself modern.<\/p><p>Finally, for m-commerce, 2021 was an impressive year. The number of mobile searches, mobile users and money spent via mobile devices grew significantly. So while desktop shopping isn\u2019t going anywhere, the future of commerce is mobile.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9a00328 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"9a00328\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">FAQ<\/h3>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-adfa9fb elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"adfa9fb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4><strong>Why is mobile commerce important?<\/strong><\/h4><p>Mobile devices are the most common online browsing tools. Moreover, two-thirds of the world\u2019s population own mobile devices, and there are more phones than people in the world. When analysing various internet shopping statistics, m-commerce seems to be taking over. Also, the fact that there are so many mobile users in the world proves that there\u2019s a huge pool of potential m-commerce shoppers that are yet to be approached.<\/p><h4><strong>What&#8217;s the difference between ecommerce and m-commerce?<\/strong><\/h4><p>When it comes to the difference between these two terms, it would be most accurate to say that ecommerce is an umbrella term. M-commerce is just one of many forms of ecommerce. In other words, while every form of m-commerce is ecommerce, not every instance of ecommerce is m-commerce. This is one of the reasons mobile commerce stats should sometimes be analysed and interpreted independently.<\/p><h4><strong>When did mobile commerce start?<\/strong><\/h4><p>The origin of mobile commerce can be traced back to 1997 when these services were first delivered. The first m-commerce form was quite interesting. New Coca-Cola vending machines were installed in Helsinki, Finland, and they accepted SMS text messages as a payment method. The majority sees this as the dawn of m-commerce. It is also quite logical to see how trends in mobile commerce progressed from this point onward.<\/p><h4><strong>What percentage of ecommerce is mobile?<\/strong><\/h4><p>In 2021, the percentage of people shopping on mobile <a href=\"https:\/\/fashiondiscounts.uk\/what-percentage-of-online-shopping-is-mobile\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">was estimated to reach 72.9%<\/a>. Moreover, somewhere around 79% of all smartphone users have made a purchase online in the past six months. This indicates that mobile audiences are not just ecommerce buyers but also ecommerce regulars.<\/p><h4><strong>What is the estimated revenue of mobile commerce?<\/strong><\/h4><p>Mobile retail revenue worldwide reached $3.56 trillion in 2021. In 2020, the number was at $2.9 trillion. What is even more fascinating is the growth that mobile commerce revenue experienced in the last five years. From $0.97 trillion in 2016, it grew more than three times in size!<\/p><h4><strong>How many people use mobile commerce?<\/strong><\/h4><p>Around 60.1% of people use mobile commerce, according to Data Reportal\u2019s 2022 Report. Moreover, 30.6% of internet users globally shop via mobile every week.<\/p><h4><strong>What is the future of m-commerce?<\/strong><\/h4><p>When it comes to the future of m-commerce, the majority of mobile commerce statistics suggest uninterrupted growth in the following period. There was an unprecedented growth of 80% from 2016 to 2020, and the majority of predictions expect this growth to continue in the future. As the purchasing power recovers, the growth might pick up its pace even further.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section
