Abstract

With the rapid development of digital payment and e-commerce technologies, the global business environment is undergoing profound changes. In recent years, the widespread application of mobile payment, blockchain technology, real-time payment and artificial intelligence has not only improved payment efficiency, but also provided new growth momentum for e-commerce. This study explores the core trends, technological innovations and future directions of digital payment and e-commerce through literature review, industry data analysis and case studies. The study shows that mobile payments and digital wallets will continue to dominate the market, and the popularity of real-time payments and open banking technologies are reshaping cross-border transactions. At the same time, consumers’ demands for privacy protection and green supply chains are forcing companies to make adjustments in technology applications and operating models. This study provides a useful reference for policymakers, business managers and researchers.
