Around four years back Alibaba got listed on the New York Stock Exchange at the value of $231 Billion. It was at this moment that attracted global investors and entrepreneurs towards the online retail industry. However, not each of them got the results with the same essence.

Undoubtedly, the reasons behind could have been different but the primary reason noticed was, lack of mobility and responsiveness.

Go Mobile!!

Besides these two, we have also noticed innovative inclusions making space in the world of mCommerce.

To ensure that you reach your set targets and surpass your competitors, we have here listed a few trends will be defining the future of mobile eCommerce. Let’s start:

#1 Evolution of Augmented Reality

As discussed lately that mobility can be considered as a synonym for growth whilst talking about mobile commerce. Through Augmented Reality got acknowledged after the launch of AR mobile game PokemonGo, we believe that there is a lot more in AR yet to be explored.

The same can be noticed in the recent announcements, where recognized brands like Amikasa and Sephora have shown their interest in integrating Augmented Reality into their mobile commerce platform.

Looking at this massive inclination, smartphone manufacturing companies and numerous app developers have started to bring innovative concepts and ideas to use AR in different industries.

#2 Smarter Mobile Messengers and Chatbots

If you are tuned to mobile e-commerce updates, you’ll probably be aware of some of the recent boarders like H&M, Starbucks, and Nordstrom, who integrated chatbots to their mobile platform. The technology lets you interact and solve queries of your customers on a real-time basis.

Recently eMarketer revealed that 54.4% social media users prefer using messenger applications to interact with brands. The figures clearly indicate the market these two technologies can avail to your online business.

Another example of technology helping buyers to shop can be Amazon Echo, Alexa which has indeed made an impeccable space in the hearts of the global audience.

If for once we keep the massive list aside and talk only about social media marketing and email marketing campaigns, automation has indeed garnered businesses with enhanced engagement and better conversions.

#4 Fraud Prevention and Detection

Ok, this might be at the second last on our list, though is a rising concern not only among users but also online entrepreneurs. We all have noticed the impact of IoT on raising security concerns.

Undoubtedly there has been tremendous changes integrated, but it is speculated that the coming years will notice the unmatched contribution of technology in preserving user data and other vital information and transactions.

Also, we would be noticing a hike in one click payment technology. Although currently, this is kind of monopoly for Amazon, thanks to Apple and Google that are now scrambling over the solution.

#5 Quicker Shipping

We can’t deny that people prefer mobile commerce for its instant response. In lieu of same, quicker shipping will be another trend in the coming years. You might have heard about the introduction of drone shipping. It is speculated that the same will soon replace (partially if not completely) the traditional delivery ways.
