The IMRG Capgemini Index tracks 'online sales', which we define as 'transactions completed fully, including payment, via interactive channels' from any location, including in-store. These sales are predominantly internet-based today, but the Index remains ready to record e-retail sales conducted via whatever interactive channels the market may embrace in the future.
Participation in the IMRG Capgemini Index is available to reputable e-retailers of all sizes. For further details, or to participate in the survey, please contact market@imrg.org.
