Mobile commerce has changed the world of online sales and, according to this infographic created by Invesp, US mobile retail sales are expected to make up almost a quarter of all e-commerce sales by 2016.
Billions of dollars are spent and made through mobile phone shopping sprees and the reasons are not difficult to understand. Consumers enjoy the benefits of shopping from wherever they want to, allowing them to save time, easily compare prices to find the best deals and feel more comfortable and at ease as they shop.
Lineups, busy malls and finding store locations are all hassles that can be avoided through mobile commerce and, just as the use of personal mobile devices is constantly growing, so are the numbers of total online sales.
