Online shopping phenomenon in the country just keeps on growing everyday. This was actually difficult for online users to accept going a couple of years ago. There's a lot of scams happening both for online and offline in the country. In the end, this made online transaction the least option to many local online users. This made local online classified websites as the top websites that local online user visit when they want to buy something. Local online classified websites pave way to the Ecommerce's arrival in the Philippines. The presence of online marketplace grew since their arrival in the country. During the time online classifieds were unavailable, local online users didn't know where to go when they want to buy something online.

For users looking to buy an item, they turn to these websites for pricing comparison.

At the time that Ecommerce websites arrived in the country, local online users were already prepared. The risk in online shopping is way lower than what they could be getting.

A lot of convincing deals was offered by group buy websites, which can't be found anywhere. Their offer or deals are so enticing the any local online customer will have a problem to avoid these group buy websites. It was a year ago when website like Lazada arrived in the Philippines. The Philippines’ Online Shopping Mall is actually an online mall that is part of a venture in South East Asia. It is venture under the Rocket Internet umbrella that is owned by the famous Samwer brothers. With their payment methods, it helped the local Ecommerce in the country. With so many payment methods available, this allowed online customers to be in control. Customers are only allowed to pay via credit card or PayPal by most online malls. These conventional online payments restrict customers to avail what they want since most of us don't have our own credit card or PayPal account. Local online users first introduced C.O.D. or Cash on Delivery. In the Philippines, it allowed the untapped market to be tapped by them. In the country, it is the majority of the population. Moreover, by tapping on this market, the Ecommerce have grown exponentially.
