In E-Commerce, AI enhances personalization, enables virtual try-ons, and supports voice-assisted shopping. In payments, AI strengthens fraud prevention, streamlines compliance, and optimizes checkout processes, while adoption in operational workflows expands across industries.

Blockchain and Cryptocurrency Adoption Gains Momentum

In 2023, 65% of global consumers expressed interest in paying with digital currencies, signaling growing demand for cryptocurrency in E-Commerce. Institutional participation is increasing, with hedge funds expanding digital asset holdings. Blockchain applications extend beyond payments into areas such as supply chain transparency, real-time settlement, and tokenization of assets, supporting broader digital transformation.

B2B E-Commerce and Marketplaces Drive Digital Transformation

Global B2B E-Commerce gross merchandise value is projected to supas EUR 35 trillion by 2026, supported by innovation in marketplaces and integrated payments.
