无现金支付，让生活更美好<figure class="image image-style-align-center"><img src="https://strapi.uqpay.com/resources/1_28002effd1.png"><figcaption>图/Pixabay</figcaption></figure>科技改变生活。过去人们下班后想要逛街消遣，只得走近人流攒动的商场，从“文山会海”到“人山人海”道出了不少上班族的无奈。如今，消费者更青睐于网购，千禧一代成了网购的主力军，实体店逐渐淡出人们视线。网购“得宠”主要有以下原因：“线上支付”方式多<figure class="image image-style-align-center"><img src="https://strapi.uqpay.com/resources/2_139d7f99c3.png"><figcaption>图/Pixabay</figcaption></figure>当前线上支付已经飞入寻常百姓家，成为人们生活的常态。同时，线上支付刚性需求大、可选择性强，给网购奠定了技术基础。“高矮胖瘦”不设限<figure class="image image-style-align-center"><img src="https://strapi.uqpay.com/resources/3_bc686437ac.jpeg"><figcaption>图/Pixabay</figcaption></figure>与逛实体服装店不同，网购只需要动动手指，就能看遍所有衣服，各种款式、各种尺寸应有尽有。消费者也不必担心衣服买来不合身，在家测量一下自己的尺寸，选中符合条件的商品即可完成购物。“好中差评”帮大忙<figure class="image image-style-align-center"><img src="https://strapi.uqpay.com/resources/4_a735de3d94.jpeg"><figcaption>图/Pixabay</figcaption></figure>线上商品琳琅满目，但看得见摸不着，且不少“流量店”抢了“口碑店”的风头，让不少消费者犯了选择困难症。“好差评”功能作为互联网时代消费者的“发声筒”，为消费者提供各抒己见的平台，让先来者畅所欲言，也为后来者提供参考，让消费者选得称心、买得放心。“精选好物”不错过<figure class="image image-style-align-center"><img src="https://strapi.uqpay.com/resources/5_bae80a1969.jpeg"><figcaption>图/Pixabay</figcaption></figure>电商APP设有收藏功能，剁手族们可以把意向商品放进收藏夹，不用担心“过了这个村，再没这个店”。同时，App会不定期推送新款上市消息和到货通知，消费者可以第一时间抓住机会，不错过每一款“心头好”。对于消费者而言，支付方式多样也是他们转战线上的一大理由。2018年一项报告显示，2019年香港移动商务将实现井喷式发展，且这一势头将持续至2023年。从消费者层面来看，大量支付方式涌现，消费者将结合自身实际，选择最合适的支付方式。为此，商户要灵活对接各渠道，满足消费者需求。无现金支付正处于发展上升期，且还将有更多创新问世。未来，无现金支付还会给网购带来什么变化，我们拭目以待。 &nbsp;
