J.P. Morgan has announced it went live with credit card payments processing for Alibaba.com, the B2B business unit of Alibaba Group.
According to the press release, the rise of marketplaces is one of the biggest trends in e-commerce, accounting for almost half of all online purchases in 2020, with online sales hitting more than $4.2 trillion globally in 2020.
Due to the growth of e-commerce, small and micro businesses need a fast, easy and safe way to seamlessly accept payments from customers across different payment methods and channels.
