Payments and Commerce Market Intelligence (PCMI) has introduced the Global E-Commerce Data Library, which currently contains data from 35 countries worldwide.

PCMI has created the Global E-Commerce Data Library, which will be further expanded. The library includes e-commerce data from 35 countries across the globe and provides strategic e-commerce insights for professionals in payment systems, online sales, financial services, and other industries. This initiative has been launched as part of PCMI’s global payment market research services.

“Tailored to Meet Professionals’ Needs”

PCMI General Manager Lindsay Lehr stated, “While a vast amount of e-commerce data is available, it is often not specifically tailored to the needs of professionals trying to uncover revenue opportunities for their companies. That’s why we developed the Global E-Commerce Data Library. The library includes both transaction data that reflects real behaviors and historical trends over time.”

Lehr added, “We also conducted interviews with leading e-commerce executives to better understand market dynamics and shape the library in a way that provides the highest value for users.” She further emphasized, “Our team is working intensively to expand the library’s coverage, particularly in regions such as Asia-Pacific and EMEA.”

Global E-Commerce Data Library Focuses on Developed and Emerging Markets

The Global E-Commerce Data Library includes e-commerce data from both developed markets (Australia, Brazil, Hong Kong, Japan) and emerging markets (Bolivia, Indonesia, Kenya, Pakistan, and Vietnam). However, it is not designed as a static data set.

Lehr stated, “Companies purchasing country data have the option to work with our team to customize the data. This allows us to expand the data to address more specific concerns, focusing more deeply on e-commerce segments, purchasing types, or consumer behaviors.”

She continued, “Beyond customization, all customers are entitled to a free one-hour consultation with a PCMI expert after their purchase to review and explain the data set. We added this feature to better understand why customers are purchasing the data and to demonstrate how it can help them achieve their goals. Through customization and consultation, we transform the data from static numbers in a file into insights that align more closely with our customers’ objectives.”
