3. Challenges of e-commerce expansion in Europe:
• 28 independent countries and 20+ different
languages
• strong national e-commerce players

and payments

High potential in e-commerce:

• 500 bn yearly turnover in e-commerce
• approx. 15% e-commerce growth y/y
• unlimited flow of people, goods and capital due
to European Union structure

Problem statement:
lack of single and universal cross-border e-commerce business player
