1.Electronic payments: When we are buying goods online, there needs to be a mechanism to pay online too. That is where the payment processors and payment gateways come into the picture. Electronic payments reduce the inefficiency associated with writing the Cheque books. It also does away with many of the safety issues that arise due to the payments made in currency notes.
2.Online shopping
Online Shopping occurs when a customer buys through a digital platform.
If you buy something online from, for example, retail giant Amazon, you are online shopping.
3.Internet Banking
We also call it online banking. Nearly all banks today offer services through their website.

We can also apply for loans and even mortgages on some websites.
