On Shop Online for Groceries Day, observed annually on the second Friday in August, we must add grocery shopping to our list of online to-dos. This year, the day will be observed on August 9. Weird as it may seem, this holiday has been around for a while, and online grocery shopping has been around for even longer. In the 1960s, I.B.M. paved the way for online shopping as we know it today, before the invention of the Internet and the World Wide Web. Soon after online banking entered the scene, major e-commerce platforms such as Amazon, eBay, and Alibaba were established and everything was being sold online including our everyday essentials such as groceries. #DigitalInnovation #onlinegrocery #onlinebanking #alibaba #august9 #sellonline

The next level of accessibility in retail: contactless payment. In recent years, the landscape of retail payment options has dramatically transformed. What was once the domain of large retailers—advanced payment technology—is now accessible to businesses of all sizes. This democratization of technology has introduced a wave of convenient payment methods, such as tap-to-pay and mobile payment solutions like Apple Pay, enhancing the checkout experience for customers everywhere. Amazon is taking things to the next level with palm-based payment…yes, ‘palm’ as in the palm of your hand. This system has become available in over 500 Whole Foods Market across the US. This works by linking the customer’s palm to their debit or credit card at a participating kiosk or point-of-sales station. Then consumers can enter the participating stores by holding their palm above a scanning device. Retail shopping is getting easier and more seamless, thanks to innovative technology that's putting purchasing ease — quite literally — in the palms of consumers’ hands.
