• This report is based on surveys of a combined total of 1,300 major retailers with combined sales
of more than £585 billion and a total of 5,400 consumers in Canada, France, Germany, the Netherlands, the UK and the U.S. There were 250 major retailers from a cross section of all vertical markets interviewed in each country, apart from Canada and the Netherlands (150 each). One thousand customers were interviewed in every country, except the Netherlands where the total was 400. The customer sample was a cross-section of the population aged 16 years and above between 1 April and 8 May 2015. The confidential retailer sample was carried out between 1 April and 15 May drawn from a cross section of vertical markets including department stores, clothing and footwear, hardware/DYI, pharmacy, convenience, consumer electronics, jewellery and general stores.
• ‘Retail sales’ in this report means the sale of merchandise to the final consumer. It excludes the
sale of tickets, travel, automobiles, rentals, car parts, fuel, hospitality services such as food services, restaurants, cafes and coffee shops, and as far as possible sales tax or VAT.

Conclusions
• In just 7 years mobile has taken a major place in retail and could represent 50% or more of all ecommerce spend in Europe by 2017
• The average mobile basket is slighly below the average online basket as consumers are for now using their smartphones or tablets primarily for smaller purchases. Mobile shoppers buy mostly digital downloads (such as apps or subscriptions), fashion and entertainment media (books, cds, media) for now
• While the majority of transactions still happen online or in-store, mobile devices have become a key element in the shopping journey. Consumers use them to find the best prices and deals, redeem vouchers, check instore availabilty or get additional product information such as reviews
• Barriers to mobile transactions are poor performance and security concerns, but also the complexity of transmitting credit card details or personal information
• Despite the interest from consumers, many retailers are yet not living up to their expectations : only 1 out of 4 European retailers consider their website mobile friendly
• Investments in mobile technologies will pay off. Consumers who use their mobile during their shopping journey spend on average 45% more than pc only shoppers. And for mobile friendly stores there’s an opportunity of additional sales of £7.8 bn in the UK this year. In other words, retailers who are not seizing the mobile opportunity are leaving money on the table and may lose their clients to their competitors.
