Why the boom, you ask? Well, consumers are on the hunt for discounts, with products expected to be 28% off. Plus, mobile shopping is on the rise, accounting for a record 56.1% of online transactions. And let's not forget the allure of buy now, pay later services, which are predicted to drive $20.2 billion in online spend.
But the real star of the show is AI. Adobe's survey reveals that 53% of consumers may use AI for research, while others will lean on it for recommendations, deal-finding, and gift inspiration. Electronics, toys, and personal care are set to be the hottest categories.
So, whether you're a retailer or a savvy shopper, it's time to embrace the AI revolution this holiday season. Happy shopping!
