Online Sales Study mirrors shopping experiences of users
Online shopping has now become an integral part of our lifestyle, thanks to improved and accessible digital literacy tools. The digital way of shopping not only increases the comfort of the user, it also offers them ample choices and freedom to explore through the options.
Although online shopping was a trend for a few years now, it became mainstream when the pandemic hit the world, and the world went into a lockdown mode. Users preferred to stay at home and make their purchases online. However, even when the lives went back to normal, online shopping continues to be a preferred mode for most of the consumers.
The study delves into fundamental aspects that impact the shopping experience of online buyers in Mexico, such as the perception of security, preferred product categories, and key indicators of online sales websites. The survey finds that in 2022, the demographic profile of online shoppers remained stable, with an increase in younger age groups and higher socioeconomic status. It also highlights the impact of financial inclusion initiatives by companies when it presents a growing unbanked segment among digital shoppers.
