Augmented reality will shine in mobile commerce
Augmented reality is a relatively new technology, and while you may not have noticed, it’s very
possible you may have been a user many times. Augmented reality allows users to project all sorts
of objects into their immediate surroundings.
One of the most popular applications of this tech has been Pokémon Go, which made $600
million for its developers only months after release. Mobile commerce platforms can use the
technology to give users the chance to place virtual furniture in their homes, ensuring that
customers have an easier and more trustworthy experience.
As the mobile commerce industry continues to grow, more companies are innovating in the space.
A number of platforms offer increased speed and security, while others offer entirely new
applications that assist users in buying what they need.
With the value of mobile commerce steadily becoming a bigger percentage of the value of overall
commerce, investors and techies alike should pay attention to these 6 trends in the industry.

How blockchain will transform the e-commerce industry over the next few years
By David Geer
Blockchain technology should be considered the most disruptive technology invention of the fourth
industrial revolution. The world has never seen a technology as powerful as blockchain technology
and it could potentially impact all sectors of the economy completely transforming it through top
notch efficiency.
However, the sector it is aiming to transform, and hopes to have the highest impact on day to day
consumer and seller activities, is the e-commerce industry. The convenience, affordability, and vast
array of products offered by e-commerce platforms shows some of the benefits of the e-commerce
industry, but with the growth of the industry (a global online retail market that is expected to
surpass $4.5 billion by 2020), large e-commerce companies like Amazon, Alibaba, EBay and a
large group of other companies which account for over 50% of that market valuation, the problems
associated with e-commerce are beginning to emerge.
Some of these problems relate to payments, supply chain management, data security, transparent
marketplace, satisfied retailers, efficient management systems, and satisfied consumers. The current
e-commerce business model will have a hard time resolving all these issues in one fell swoop, with
the only solution to these problems is blockchain technology.
