COVID-19 acted as a catalyst for digital transformation across multiple industries, with McKinsey citing that the world saw two years’ worth of digital transformation in just two months. A retailer’s e-commerce channel suddenly become critical as stores across the world faced temporary or permanent closures. Surprisingly, how retailers manage and handle payments has not largely changed, with many decisively stuck 20 years in the past. To ultimately transform, retailers need flexible, scalable, and customizable payment infrastructure.
The future of technology is in the cloud. Retailers need a payment and hosting platform that works both today and wherever digital commerce takes them in the future. Shopping carts are going headless and cloud-based, as is stock control, shipping and even warehousing solutions. In the not too distant future, retailers won’t own a single server. To take on digital transformation, retailers need to choose a platform that works now, will work with their infrastructure in the future, and functions wherever and however it’s deployed.
