E-commerce to accelerate at 14% per year by 2027 **Curitiba, Brazil – February 4, 2025** – Consumer spending in Southeast Asia and India is projected to increase by 122% over the next decade, outpacing other major emerging regions such as Latin America and Africa, which are expected to see growths of 57% and 103%, respectively. This surge, based on projections by the World Data Lab (WDL), is featured in [**the new edition of Beyond Borders, EBANX's annual comprehensive study**](http://bit.ly/EBANXBeyondBorders2025) on the digital market and payment trends in emerging economies. **The study can be accessed in full and for free at** [**http://bit.ly/EBANXBeyondBorders2025**](http://bit.ly/EBANXBeyondBorders2025)**. ** Driven by their youthful, tech-savvy populations and expanding digital ecosystems, Southeast Asia and India are experiencing an increase in e-commerce transactions, which is one of the main factors fueling the largest consumer spending growth among rising markets. According to Statista data in Beyond Borders, **online sales are projected to grow by 14% annually across emerging Asian countries** over the next two years, with India leading the charge.  “*The digital transformation and burgeoning middle-class consumer base in rising markets position them as pivotal players in the global e-commerce landscape*,” said **João Del Valle**, CEO and Co-founder of EBANX, a global payment service provider (PSP) specializing in payments in emerging markets. With exponential growth in e-commerce and booming consumer spending, Southeast Asia and India, along with Latin America and Africa, have been playing pioneering roles in the payments industry. “*There is ample potential for merchants, financial institutions, and other players to benefit from all the payment innovations emerging from rising economies*,” stated **Del Valle**. **Payment innovations** Consumer demand for real-time, seamless, and cost-effective transactions has made UPI, mobile money, and Pix the leading alternative payment methods for online purchases in India, Kenya, and Brazil, respectively. **UPI leads the overall online sales in India, with 55% of the country's market, followed by mobile money, which accounts for 48% of Kenya's total e-commerce, and Pix, with 40% of Brazil’s online purchases**, according to data from Payments and Commerce Market Intelligence (PCMI) in Beyond Borders.  Features like Pix Automático, set to launch in mid-2025, will unlock new recurring payment use cases and accelerate adoption in Brazil’s e-commerce. **Beyond Borders' exclusive projections reveal that Pix Automático could generate over USD 30 billion in online recurring payments within two years of its launch**, per PCMI. This is a substantial figure, considering this credit card-dominated market vertical currently handles USD 50 billion annually in Brazil. EBANX's study also predicts that the new recurring feature will account for 12% of all Pix's online transaction volume by 2027. Pix, UPI, and mobile money are also among the fastest-growing payment methods in online sales across emerging markets, expected to accelerate by 35%, 18%, and 16% per year by 2027, in that order. Debit cards are also one of the “game changer” payment methods, capturing 32% of the market across emerging economies, and still sustaining a 24% CAGR by 2027. “*Emerging markets are leading the global shift towards real-time payments, with innovations that match their populations' demands for speed and convenience*,” said the CEO of EBANX. “*This results from an irreversible trend in the payments industry: the development of solutions completely adapted to local consumer behavior. And our report shows how this is taking place.*”  **To read EBANX's Beyond Borders 2025 study, access** [http://bit.ly/EBANXBeyondBorders2025](http://bit.ly/EBANXBeyondBorders2025).  **ABOUT EBANX** EBANX is the leading payment platform connecting global companies with customers from the fastest-growing digital markets in the world.
