The birthplace of e-commerce, America saw the first ever online purchase back in 1972. Not much happened for a while after that until the mid-90s when brands like Amazon and eBay took off, changing the way we would think about shopping forever.

Since then, the USA has dominated global e-commerce on most metrics and has consistently led the way in terms of technology.

US consumers are tech savvy and trusting when it comes to online shopping. A whopping 265 million of them spent more as individuals last year ($2,773) than the citizens of any other nation. Couple that with a real ease of doing cross-border business and it is plain to see that the USA simply cannot be ignored by ambitious e-tailers.
Want to know more? Read the USA 2020: E-commerce Country Report. With detailed insights on US consumers, including their shopping expectations and delivery preferences; essential economic facts, stats and trends; and vital logistical considerations for cross-border traders, this comprehensive yet concise report reveals everything you need to know about e-commerce in the USA.
