“The future of commerce” which is often the subject of so many webinars, conferences and articles, was redefined last year when we launched the Flutterwave Store amidst the global pandemic. Now, we’re redefining the future of commerce by turning your mobile phone into your own personal POS, Online Store, and general mobile business HQ. Welcome to Flutterwave Mobile.

Why is Flutterwave Mobile going to redefine the future of commerce?

The future of commerce and the future of pretty much anything is quite often not a particular trend that we see. It’s very simple, it is convenience and refinement. Which do you think came first? Electric or petrol-powered cars? In November 1881Gustave Trouvé presented an electric car at the Exposition internationale d’Électricité de Paris. It wasn’t until the year 1886 when German inventor Karl Benz patented his petrol-powered Benz Patent-Motorwagen.

So why did we all grow up seeing more petrol cars than electric?

The petrol cars of the time had laborious methods of starting their engines, such as hand-cranking. 1912 saw the introduction of electric starter motor and combined with much quicker refueling times and cheaper production costs, petrol cars became more popular. One word: convenience.
