Which Regions Are Winning in Digital Commerce Growth?

Our latest research eveals that the value of global digital commerce transactions will surge from $23 trillion in 2025 to over $34 trillion - an increase of 49%. 

While North America and West Europe will grow at a stronger pace over the next five years, Far East & China remains the dominant market; thanks to QR codes and a mature eCommerce ecosystem. However, its growth rate will be the slowest at 27.2%, as China nears digital commerce saturation.

While growth is strong worldwide, emerging markets are driving the most significant expansion. Indeed, although not shown on this infographic, Latin America will grow at a rate of 241%, representing a major opportunity for commerce stakeholders

To capitalise on this, digital commerce platforms should look to support more local payment methods, such as local digital wallets and account-to-account (A2A) payments, rather than solely relying on card payments. This will enable platforms to tap into emerging markets’ growth specifically, as this is heavily tied to enabling access to large populations who lack access to cards.
