Summary of Topic

Card-not-Present merchants are continually evaluating strategies for extending their eCommerce business internationally. Yet, even the most sophisticated companies are challenged to find reliable market analysis to guide their decision-making.

This session will present a market-driven approach to planning and prioritizing new market expansion based on cross-referenced, quantitative data for online consumer purchase behavior. In addition, data will be presented identifying the key payment methods in each country. This session will cover all regions with an emphasis on the European Union (EU).
The presentation will begin with a concise review of online commerce statistics for each region globally. This will enable attendees to gauge the potential revenue growth opportunity presented in markets outside North America. From there, the session will focus on the EU region and present more detailed data on key European markets. Case studies will be presented providing examples of how other eCommerce companies have practically put to use a data-driven model for prioritizing and executing market-by-market expansion based on their product mix, consumer demographics and the Company’s risk management objectives.

The session will wrap-up with some practical approaches for entering new markets as well as testing and analyzing results before committing to a full launch. In this, the presenter will share a short list of key readiness factors that attendees should assess before launching into a new online market.
