- Early figures reveal Mega Monday is 21% higher than same day last year according to figures from ReDBusiest minute features £831,000 spent at 13:15Early indications are that today will be the busiest online shopping day of the year in the lead-up to Christmas, with £831,000 spent at 13:15, making it the busiest shopping minute of the year. The figures come from IMRG member Retail Decisions (ReD), a world leader in card fraud prevention and payment processing. The October release of our eCSI report revealed that over 60% of people were looking to start their Christmas shopping early, but we still expect today to be the busiest in the lead-up to Christmas with the adverse weather conditions possibly contributing to the success of online shopping. David Smith, Managing Director at IMRG, said: “Now that everyone has been paid we are seeing online Christmas shopping really burst into life for this year during today’s lunch period. Mondays tend to have the highest spend of the week as people go out to the shops over the weekend and try the products before making a decision. With over half the population of the UK now shopping online, this Christmas looks to be a big one for retailers, possibly even exceeding our estimation of £6.4bn spent online in December.” Carl Clump CEO of Retail Decisions (ReD) said: “Shoppers are getting smarter when it comes to the great deals to be found online. Experienced bargain hunters go out and window-shop at the weekend to choose what they want, but then buy online on Monday after searching for the very best prices. Our real-time statistics show that nearly 40% of online Christmas shopping is done during office hours, and that between midday and 2pm at work on Monday 6 December has been the most popular time for purchasing.”http://www.imrg.org/8025741F0065E9B8/(httpPressReleases)/67AD03DC02040884802577F10060FFB0?OpenDocument

- Mobile Interactive Group has tried to buy that Christmas staple a pair of socks from 57 of the UK’s leading retailers via mobile and found that only 23% of them have a sufficiently navigable and transactional site or app to make this possible.MIG’s tongue-in-cheek report concluded that only 16 retailers had a mobile application with only nine of these being capable of processing a transaction. In addition, only four retailers had an optimised transactional mobile site. In total only 23% of all retailers in the fashion sector allowed users to find and purchase a pair of socks via mobile. Clicks to find a pair of socks ranged between two and five and clicks to the checkout (or registration page) ranged between five and eight. http://www.internetretailing.net/2010/12/retailers-neglecting-to-support-mobile-shoppers-risk-losing-millions-over-christmas-%e2%80%93-do-you-have-socks-appeal/
