Electronic Commerce (eCommerce) is one of the most important aspects of the internet to emerge. It allows people to exchange goods and services immediately and with no barriers of time or distance. Any time of the day or night, you can go online and buy almost anything you want – even in your underwear.

Current eCommerce statistics state that 40 percent of worldwide internet users have bought products or goods online via desktop, mobile, tablet or other online devices. This amounts to more than 1 billion online buyers and is projected to continuously grow.

Some key components to the eCommerce Model:

  • The online store
  • The shopping basket
  • The SECURE Gateway checkout
  • The online customer data collection
  • The shipping methods
  • The credit card or payment methods
  • The merchant account with your bank
