Monday 24 March 2014 14:51 CET | News

In Mexico, B2C ecommerce is currently on an upward curve, due to the growing internet reach, credit card penetration, mobile usage, and cross-border shopping, according to the “Latin America B2C E-Commerce Report 2013” issued by Hamburg-based secondary market research company yStats.com.

A yearly double digit growth rate in B2C ecommerce sales is expected to persist throughout 2016. “Music and Films” was the most popular category in Mexican B2C ecommerce in 2012. The most frequently used payment method was credit card, accounting for over a half of all transactions in 2012.

In terms of delivery, the majority of shoppers in Mexico would add items to their cart in order to benefit from free delivery. Mexican shoppers are the most engaged in m-commerce of all Latin American countries.
