What do you think is the current status of e-commerce in
Pakistan, is it gaining momentum?
Online shopping in Pakistan has given a great boost to the local economy and
the customers. The convenience of shopping from home is unmatchable. Online
shopping takes away the hassle of having to go to a store, wait in lines, and
often shop in uncomfortable surroundings. Also, it is much easier to compare
prices, read customer reviews and even get free shipping. Furthermore, online
stores have been making headway in the Pakistani market giving customers a
wide array of product selection. I find that most major retailers offer a variety of
products at competitive prices.

But my experience with online shopping in Pakistan has been largely negative.
Unfortunately, due to lack of trust and awareness, many people in Pakistan are
still reluctant to shop online. There have been reports of scams, fake products
and credit card frauds.Pakistan also has slow internet speed which can delay the
ordering process and delivery of item. Most of time items being delivered late,
or not being delivered at all, even after paying for them. Also had problems with
receiving faulty or damaged items, and getting refunds or replacements for them
can be a hassle. Additionally, many times the prices listed on the website are not
the same as the prices charged after the items have been shipped, which can be
quite frustrating.
