In today’s digital economy, payments are more than just money transfers. They are part of the customer experience, and they often decide whether a sale is completed or lost. If paying feels complicated people will abandon their purchase. If it is quick and safe, they will return. Acquiring is the service that makes this possible by giving businesses a simple way to accept payments from cards and digital wallets all over the world.
When a customer makes a payment, the acquiring partner authorises and secures the transaction, checks it against fraud, and then transfers the funds to the business. In practice, this means merchants receive their money quickly while clients feel confident that their payment is safe. For both sides, the process is smooth and reliable.
The growth of acquiring clearly shows how vital it has become for online commerce. Card payments still hold a significant place in the overall digital transaction volume. However, digital wallets (like Apple Pay or Google Pay) have already secured the lead. Throughout 2024, roughly half (50-53%) of all worldwide e-commerce payments were made using these wallets. This surge is supported by massive adoption: the number of digital wallet users globally reached an impressive 4.3 billion by the end of 2024. Currently, in 2025, the mobile payment market, which is the heart of online commerce, has already reached or surpassed the $4.97 trillion projection. These figures confirm a simple truth: the modern online customer expects fast, convenient, and secure ways to pay.
