Retail mCommerce is on a rapid rise as well, steadily gaining share of overall eCommerce. In 2013, retail mCommerce—which includes products and services ordered on mobile devices, including tablets—increased 70.0% to reach $42.13 billion. eMarketer estimates that in 2014, that figure will increase another 37.2% to total $57.79 billion, or about one-fifth of all retail eCommerce sales and 1.2% of total retail sales. In 2014, tablet sales will account for nearly two-thirds of mCommerce sales, eMarketer predicts, increasing to nearly 75% by the end of our forecast period. Read the rest at eMarketer.
