The Global BOPIS Market

 
Buy Online, Pick Up In Store, or BOPIS, is a retail revolution sweeping across the U.S., underscoring a key trend in consumer habits. With shoppers having spent over $95 billion via BOPIS in 2022, it’s clear this is not just a minor blip on the retail radar. What’s even more striking is that this only amounts to 9% of all e-commerce sales, indicating massive growth potential. The global BOPIS market, in fact, is expected to surge past $700 billion by 2027.

Driving Efficiency: The Power of Technology

Given that the U.S. represents the largest pickup economy worldwide, it’s evident that retailers need cutting-edge tools and technology to streamline and enhance the in-store pickup experience. As of today, two-thirds of all U.S. retail chains offer click-and-collect services, reflecting the increasing demand for the fusion of online convenience and traditional in-store collection.

In an age where retail competition is fierce, embracing BOPIS not only aligns retailers with current consumer trends but also prepares them for the future. As we inch closer to 2027, the question that begs to be asked is not whether BOPIS will become the norm, but rather, who will lead in delivering the premium, friction-free BOPIS experience that consumers demand.
