Research and Markets: European Online Payments

DUBLIN--()--Dublin - Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/7gwc5n/european_online_pa) has announced the addition of the "European Online Payments" report to their offering.

Mercator's research, European Online Payments, provides an up-to-date overview of the overall e-commerce and online payment card market in Europe in 2011. The current market situation and growth of the European eCommerce market are discussed, alongside other issues and challenges. Additional topics include regulator efforts to accelerate market development, various types of online payment options available (along with factors affecting their adoption), high-level profiles of online payment markets in 12 major European countries, and an introduction to select major online payment service providers in the market and recent developments.

The European online payments market has rapidly evolved over the past decade, Terry Xie, Director of Mercator Advisory Group's International Advisory Service and author of the report, comments. But development in different markets has often been isolated. Different markets have developed solutions to serve their consumers' needs in the quickly growing e-commerce market. That has worked well but is not going to support the market's further long-term growth as the European market increasingly becomes one both offline and online.

Highlights:

- Market projections and recent growth rates for European e-commerce and online payment markets

- Diversity of the European online payment mix because countries' markets differ significant in size, growth rate, and market penetration

- Factors and dynamics affecting the differing rate of adoption for card payments across the European markets

- Actions European regulators are taking to foster optimal growth

- Changes the European online payment market can expect as regulators and the industries push the PSD and the SEPA initiatives forward
