Ready to go global? The Paypers’ Global Ecommerce Report 2025 will help you navigate expansion
)
Our media partner, The Paypers, has launched the Global Ecommerce Report 2025, teaming up with industry experts to bring you a guide to global expansion packed with insights to help you succeed.
With the increased tendency towards globalisation, digitalisation, and hyper-personalisation, cross-border ecommerce is no longer just about selling across borders – it has become a global experience driven by customer choice and enabled by evolving technologies.
We’re living in an era characterised by change, and businesses interested in doing more than just surviving must stay informed about industry trends, emerging payment technologies, and thriving growth markets. Global ecommerce is an industry significantly impacted by this ongoing evolution, as evidenced by the market value projections for 2024, which are expected to amount to USD 4.12 trillion. With a CAGR rate of 9.49% between 2024-2029, the value will reportedly reach USD 6.48 trillion by 2029.
The Global Ecommerce Report 2025 by The Paypers aims to be a guide for navigating this complex landscape. This edition compiles insights from key stakeholders – top industry consultants, merchants, and payment service providers (PSPs) – who answer the most pressing questions and share winning strategies.
Report highlights
Nowadays, merchants can identify and tap into new growth markets early on, quickly build brand awareness, avoid competition, connect with previously unreachable consumers, and increase profits. These opportunities also come with a set of challenges, such as payment complexities, logistics and supply chain hurdles, fraud risks, compliance with local regulations, fees, ever-changing customer demand, and localisation.
To help businesses stay ahead of the competition, the Global Ecommerce Report 2025 features insights on these pressing challenges and topics such as industry trends, foreign exchange (FX), domestic card payment systems, payment optimisation and orchestration, growth markets, and regulatory initiatives.
The main topics covered in this industry guide include:
- An exploration of the current ecommerce landscape – from how emerging trends drive ecommerce and the new generation of domestic card schemes to regulatory developments to consider when balancing protection and industry growth;
- Strategic partners as key enablers in keeping up with the pace of change – readers can learn about the payment trends and developments shaping global commerce, how to navigate the industry’s complexities, how optimised payments can unlock business growth, and the importance of FX for merchants;
- How to improve performance with payment orchestration – from how the technology impacts ecommerce and can help solve merchant challenges to what it means for interoperability;
- Payment trends and opportunities in growth markets – including a global perspective, as well as a close-up on the APAC, LATAM, and MEA regions;
- Payment shifts in travel, retail, and gaming – an exploration of payment considerations when expanding across borders, the effect of GenAI on ecommerce, and the role younger generations play in changing payments in the gaming industry.
The editorial pieces featured in the report are authored by company representatives from Booking.com, BR-DGE, BridgerPay, CMSPI, Convera, Edgar, Dunn & Company, Euromonitor International, Fuse, IXOPAY, Lazada, Mastercard Gateway, Merchant Risk Council (MRC), Nexway, Nuvei, PPRO, Redbridge Debt and Treasury Advisory, Unlimit, Wargaming.net, Worldline, and Worldpay.
Original research by The Paypers
Setting out to address one of the biggest trends of the payments industry today, namely payment orchestration, the Global Ecommerce Report 2025 features an infographic which presents the capabilities of payment orchestration providers worldwide. This infographic also includes a section on the regions where these players are active, constituting an educational resource and starting point for businesses interested in partnering with payment orchestration providers when expanding across borders.
The second infographic in the report focuses on six growth markets: Brazil, Mexico, Nigeria, South Africa, Vietnam, and the Philippines. Each market analysis covers key local developments (such as ecommerce trends, relevant payment methods, and shifts in consumer behaviour), anticipated future developments, and regulatory aspects impacting payments, ecommerce, and fraud.
