The future of eCommerce in APAC: Driving growth with new-age payments

More than 20% of global retail sales in 2022 are expected to come from online purchases. Just five years ago, that figure was less than half. This number will only continue to grow at a rapid pace. By 2025, Asia is projected to have a digital economy worth $25 trillion, more than the rest of the world combined. The path to long-term relevance and success is clear, but getting there is another story. 

A key factor in this digital-driven development is the rise of online and eCommerce payments. As online business grows, so do the threats. Furthermore, the payment experience has become a significant influencer in consumers’ purchasing decisions. Moving forward, companies must equip themselves with the tools to win in a modern, digital-first environment, especially in the field of payments.
