Similar to shoppers in other markets, Peruvians also shop online regularly. Weekly online purchases either on mobile or computer occur over one-third of the time. Fashion, restaurant takeout and utility payments are some of the top online ecommerce activities.
Shopping on mobile, especially in case of restaurant purchases is predominant with 86% reporting they use their phone to buy food. Yape initially started as a peer- to-peer payments app launched by the BCP bank and expanded to offer peer-to-merchant services allowing shoppers to use QR codes to make purchases.
