The market is projected to grow by 13% during the quarter. 

Australia’s e-commerce market is expected to grow by 13% to $50.2b in 2022, largely driven by the increasing shift of consumers from offline to online platforms, GlobalData reported.

“Australia’s e-commerce market has been witnessing high growth over the past few years, supported by growing internet penetration, availability of secure online payment systems, and an increase in the number of online shoppers,” Ravi Sharma, Lead Banking and Payments Analyst, GlobalData, said.

More than 9 million Australian households shopped online in 2022, representing an increase of 200,000 from the previous year.
