Presently, the eCommerce industry has been growing rapidly around the world, causing heads to rise in the retail industry globally. Brick and mortar store operations have been affected and many companies across the world are trying to strike a balance between the optimal number of physical stores and the time and investment needed in starting an eCommerce venture. What is more striking is that Mobile commerce is catching up compared to eCommerce shopping via desktops. M-commerce, or mobile commerce, refers to purchasing and selling goods and services using wireless handheld devices like smartphones and tablets. It’s a kind of eCommerce that lets users shop online without needing a desktop computer.
