The Paypers' Launches the Fintech for Marketplaces and Platforms Report 2024
ECommerce has forever changed our relationship with shopping. With just a few taps on our phones or clicks on our laptops, we can now purchase almost anything online and have it delivered to our doorstep, sometimes on the same day. The convenience we grew so accustomed to today was, in 1982, when the Boston Computer Exchange (BCE), considered by many as the first online marketplace, was launched, more like a figment of one’s imagination than an actual possibility.
At present, marketplaces account for the largest share of online purchases worldwide. However, despite their popularity, they face increased competitiveness and multiple challenges spanning from payment friction, rising customer expectations, different payment preferences across geographies, fraud concerns, and the need to establish loyalty among customers. In this context, marketplaces need to stay ahead of the game by forging strategic partnerships and leveraging the right insights from subject-matter experts.
With a clear aim to tackle the main challenges marketplaces and online platforms are currently facing, the Fintech for Marketplaces and Platforms Report 2024 – Leveraging the Latest Paytech, Regtech, and Embedded Finance Innovations elaborates on the constantly evolving eCommerce industry, serving as a source of information for businesses wanting to expand and increase their customer base.
