Here are some highlights of the top 5 digital consumer trends in 2024 report:
 
Intuitive E-Commerce
Online experiences are improving due to evolving data-gathering strategies and emerging technologies, from AR to IoT to Gen AI. These advances have the potential to transform the online shopping experience, leading to one that is more intuitive.
 
TikTok Economy
Digital consumers are flocking to TikTok and Douyin, twin social media platforms that have embraced short-form video content. Brands are striving to promote their products and services on these platforms, but some of the viral trends that are doing the most to boost brand sales are emerging organically from users on those platforms, without any direct brand involvement.
 
Outsmart Online
Against a backdrop of mounting macroeconomic uncertainty and increasing digitalisation, consumers are increasingly seeking out online platforms dedicated to rooting out the best deals. However, more and more consumers are utilising these platforms in ways that brands do not intend – and, increasingly, in ways that brands disapprove of outright. 
 
Recommerce 2.0
Recommerce is surging and evolving globally, driven by environmentally conscious, thrifty and tech-savvy younger consumers. Brands and retailers recognise the potential of the market and are actively adopting various strategies to enter it, mirroring the convenience of e-commerce, and making recommerce more widely accessible across geographies and product categories.
 
Revamped Returns
Consumers have long wanted hassle-free returns, but delivering on that expectation has not been without challenges. The convergence of trends like the rise of e-commerce, the closure of stores and more sustainable strategies is moving returns up the industry agenda. New technologies and partnerships are paving the way to a revamped return experience.
