E-commerce, short for electronic commerce, refers to the trading of goods and services through digital platforms. It enables businesses and consumers to conduct transactions online, offering convenience, speed, and global accessibility across a wide range of industries, from retail and travel to financial services.
Online and mobile commerce rely on digital payment systems to complete purchases. When a customer shops online, a payment gateway or processor securely handles the transaction, authorizing the transfer of funds between accounts. A seamless, secure, and fast payment experience is essential to building trust and reducing cart abandonment in e-commerce, making payment technology a key driver of online commerce growth.
