Asia (ex-China) Retail & E-commerce

September 16, 2017

Consumers in the Asia-Pacific region have a high level of acceptance of in-app ads and more likely to click through to purchase with shopping apps, according to French ad tech firm Criteo, which surveyed over 3,000 consumers across six Asia-Pacific countries – Australia, India, Indonesia, South Korea, Taiwan and Thailand to explore the way consumers use retail and shopping apps. The survey found out that six in ten smartphone users across the region have two to five retail and shopping apps on their devices, with over 90% of the users purchasing at least once a month using retail and shopping apps and 40% of them shopping between two to five times per month. Around 70% of respondents found it is more enjoyable and convenient to shop from retail and shopping apps than mobile websites, while usability is a key factor driving purchasing via shopping apps1.
