Online shopping, also known as e-shopping, allows consumers to purchase goods and services directly from sellers over the internet using a web browser. It offers consumers convenience and time savings as they can shop 24/7 from anywhere. While online shopping provides more selection and information than traditional shopping, an advantage of shopping in-person is being able to physically examine products. Common online payment methods include cash on delivery, debit/credit cards, bank transfers, and cheques. Major Indian e-commerce websites include Amazon, Flipkart, Snapdeal, Jabong, Myntra, and ShopClues.
