Frequently Asked Questions

Mobile eCommerce, also called mCommerce and mobile commerce, refers to any transaction completed with a mobile device – be it a smartphone, tablet, or even a wearable device.

Mobile commerce is the next phase of e-commerce, as it allows consumers to buy services or goods online – but from anywhere and at any time.

While mobile e-commerce applications cover a broad range of transaction options, they can all be categorized as one of three types:

  • Mobile shopping – means shopping via mobile. This type of mCommerce implementation is most similar to e-commerce, only accessible through a mobile device. We’re talking about dedicated apps, optimized websites, or even social media platforms like Facebook or Instagram that allow in-app purchases or linking to online stores.
  • Mobile banking – similar to online banking. It allows users to access their bank account information, locate an ATM, make transactions such as purchasing stocks, remitting money, and much more. All with a mobile device.
  • Mobile payments – it is a money payment made for a product or service through a portable electronic device such as a tablet or smartphone. Mobile payments work much the same as credit cards, without needing to reach for your wallet or purse. Examples of successful mobile payment systems are PayPal, Apple pay, and Google pay.

Here are six examples of outstanding mCommerce applications which can be an inspiration for your eCommerce mobile app development: CCC, Amazon, Starbucks, Uber, Sephora, ASOS.

There are 7 crucial stages of the eCommerce mobile app development process from a business point of view:

  1. Clarifying the vision
  2. Choosing a partner
  3. Wireframes & Design
  4. Project Kick-off & Setup

Mobile eCommerce is a rapidly expanding tech area that has seen unprecedented growth during the last decade. More than half of retailers already have a mobile app. And over 50% of the rest is going to build one soon.1 In 2021, mobile eCommerce sales will account for more than half of the total e-commerce sales.2

Moreover, new developments in cutting-edge fields like artificial intelligence (AI), or the Internet of Things (IoT) allow developers to build even more engaging mobile commerce applications.

Augmented Reality (AR), Voice search and control, Chatbots, Omnichannel, Mobile in-store checkouts, Optimizing the speed, and Social commerce – these are just a few of the top mobile commerce trends to follow in 2021.

Businesses that don’t take advantage of the growing mobile eCommerce market, will limit their opportunities for growth and success.
