One of the notable trends in marketplace payments is the increasing diversity of payment methods. While credit and debit cards remain dominant, marketplaces are incorporating alternative payment options such as digital wallets (e.g., PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay), Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) solutions, cryptocurrencies, and localized payment methods to cater to a broader global audience. This diversification aims to enhance user convenience and expand market reach.
