Roughly a quarter of the global population will reportedly shop online this year. That’s an increase of 40 percent since 2014, with more growth to come.
But merchants know that ecommerce is highly competitive. It’s also dynamic and ever-changing. Alternative forms of selling and servicing — such as social commerce, voice commerce, and chatbots — are examples. These tactics, though, cost money. They aren't always feasible for small businesses.

Ecommerce in Germany was worth 72.6 billion euros in 2019. This is an increase of 11.6 percent compared to the situation one year before.
