The Mobile Commerce Audit. What is it?
Acquity Group performs an annual Mobile Commerce Audit in conjunction with Internet Retailer’s Top 500 and EU Top 300 guides to identify companies and industries on the leading edge of mobile initiatives, both in the US and the EU.
» Analysis of the top 500 online retailers
» Executed annually since 2009
» Also in conjunction with Internet Retailer, we perform a separate, detailed assessment of 375+ retailers, ticket sellers and travel/hospitality organizations active in the mobile channel to understand what tactics are being used: the Mobile Commerce Data Book.
2011 M-Commerce Audit: Candidate Identification

Selecting the pool of candidates…
» We start with the full list of 500 top online retailers, as ranked by Internet Retailer
» Multiple brands for one company were only considered in cases where two brands had significantly different desktop websites
» For companies who feature both retail and non-retail sites for their brand, only the retail sites were considered
» The final pool of candidates totaled 535 sites
2011 M-Commerce Audit: Mobile OSs
9
Six mobile operating systems were chosen to reflect the 2011 landscape:
» Each retailer’s site was tested on each of the following operating systems:
» If the retailer had a mobile specific site, it received one point
» The mobile site URL was recorded, as well as the URL extension
» Apple iPhone
» Android OS
» webOS
» Blackberry OS v. 5
» Blackberry OS v. 6
» Windows Phone 7
2011 M-Commerce Audit: Mobile Site Criteria
10
The following criteria were used as metrics for the successful adoption of an M-Commerce site:
» The checkout process cannot require any external dependencies outside of the mobile capabilities.
2011 M-Commerce Audit: App Availability
11
Testing process and scoring of mobile apps…
» Mobile Applications for each of the top 500 retailers were searched for at each of the following stores:
» Apple iTunes App Store» Google’s Android Marketplace» Blackberry App World» Palm’s App Catalog for webOS» Windows Mobile Marketplace
» Third party apps were not counted
2011 M-Commerce Audit: Final Ranking
12
» The final score for each site was calculated as the sum of both the Mobile Device Detection score and the Mobile Applications score (total of 42 points).
» Each site that registered at least one point was ranked by their final score.
» If sites had a common score, they were then ordered by their composite score breakdown: a site’s Mobile Device Detection score was given priority over their Mobile Applications score
» If sites still had a common score, they were then ordered by the following:
Devices supported > Mobile apps offered > Mobile Site Score > Redirect Score > Site Rendering Score > Optimization Score > Checkout/Booking Score » If sites still had a common score, they were finally ordered by their Top
500 rank awarded by Internet Retailer.

Notable Findings

Key Finding Conclusion
While 23% of companies featured a downloadable iPhone app, very few had Blackberry or webOS apps. Android, with 20% growth over last year, had the highest rate of growth.
There were massive gains in both the number of top retailers with a mobile site (37%, a 210% increase) and the number with a mobile app (26%, a 278% increase).
Even though the overall number of sites didn’t change from our 2010 analysis, the ticket industry showed the highest percentage-changes, with the largest growth in site redirection and checkout abilities.
In the ticket industry, differentiation and market share is related to value-added services, including mobile capabilities. Simply put, a company in this industry cannot maintain a competitive edge without offering ticket purchase & management on mobiles devices.
2011 was the year that mobile truly took hold – and took off. Although there is still tremendous room for growth, retailers have accepted mobile as a key platform for growth and customer engagement.
Retailers are following the general industry trend to the two top smartphone platforms in the US: iOS and Android. Any mobile applications on the other platforms seemed to be supplementary.
