E-Complish releases new study concerning mobile performance

E-Complish, a company specializing in payment solutions, has announced a significant increase in inquiries in mobile payments in 2013. The company has released a study that highlights a growing interest in mobile commerce coming from businesses and consumers alike. The study suggests that 2013 was the best year that the mobile commerce sector has seen so far, with more businesses taking the mobile space seriously and working to engage a new generation of mobile consumers more dynamically.

215% increase in mobile payment inquiries

According to the study, there has been a 215% increase in mobile payments inquiries in 2013, with over 30,000 transactions being handled by E-Complish. The company has processed more than $4.5 million in mobile payments in 2013 compared to the $1.5 million it processed in 2012. E-Complish expects to continue seeing mobile commerce gain momentum over the coming years, especially as businesses begin to take mobile consumers more seriously.

Holiday shopping goes mobile

During the 2012 holiday season, retailers were exposed to the potential success they could find through a focus on mobile commerce. The 2013 holiday season solidified the faith that companies had been putting behind mobile commerce. Now, retailers are beginning to flock to the mobile space, seeking out companies like E-Complish to help make them more accommodating to mobile consumers by embracing mobile payments.

Specialty retailers find success in mobile commerce

E-Complish is not the only company that has been seeing success in the mobile commerce space. Amazon, eBay, and China’s Alibaba, have also profited from the success of mobile commerce over the past year. These companies have established a strong presence in the mobile space, but specialty retailers have managed to find the most success when it comes to engaging mobile consumers. These retailers may be considerably smaller than companies like eBay, but they have been able to provide consumers with a more enjoyable shopping experience.

Forrester Research has stated that the company has been “ranked as the leader” in its sector.

Branding Brand, the mobile commerce platform provider that is growing the most rapidly in the world, has now also been named as a leader in its industry according to the global independent research firm, Forrester Research, Inc.

The firm released a report that named Branding Brand as the leading provider.

The name of the report was “The Forrester Wave™: Mobile Commerce Solutions Providers, Q4, 2013.” The report indicated that the scores that were earned by the Branding Brand mobile commerce platform were the highest when compared to the rest of the competition. The firm was able to receive the top scores for market presence as well as its current offerings. It stood out as having a strong and rapidly growing retail client base. It also concentrated notably on pushing innovation, and has a powerful technology platform.

The firm made itself notably different as a mobile commerce platform, well beyond being a tech provider.

The company’s clients have noted a particular preference for the firm’s hands on consulting for smartphone based shopping as well as insight for retail that is made available. Also identified as high in value were the company’s responsiveness to client ideas and its program’s management skills. Outside of a solid consumer facing smartphone and tablet apps and web, the company has also done very well in increasing its installed base among its existing client base in order to expand on its offerings. This is especially true in the area of associate clientele applications and in-store kiosks.

The report explained that the company has focused its attention on becoming a solid platform instead of “doing bespoke client implementations”. When compared to its competition, its efforts with its platform have given it the ability to quickly develop and create new innovations in the mobile sphere, such as Passbook, across its complete client base, without racking up a large bill.

According to the co-founder of Branding Brand, Chris Mason, who is also its CEO, the company is proud to know that it is a mobile commerce platform provider leader, adding that “Now, it is our responsibility to continue innovating and earn this honor every day.”
