The Whole World is One Click Away

With just a click of a mouse you can buy nearly any product online from retailers around the world, from diapers, beauty products, pet supplies, car insurance, party favors, travel arrangements, home loans, groceries, cleaning supplies, to electronics and clothing. E-commerce allows consumers to purchase thousands of items without leaving the comfort of their home.

The number of people shopping online around the world is increasing dramatically. Retailers attract more shoppers as they utilize their websites to sell out-of-season merchandise at a fraction of the price at the same time that they also have the new arrivals.

What are the advantages of shopping online?
  • Compare prices between different stores that have the same item.
  • No need to drive to the store, you can do it in your PJ's at home.
  • Find the size you are looking for in seconds.
  • Easy to send a family member a gift or flowers even when they live far from you.
  • Use online coupons to save extra money.
  • No long lines to pay.
  • Possibility of finding the same item with a retailer that doesn't charge State tax (depending on your location)
  • In a matter of minutes you can finish your purchase and just wait for the delivery.
As technology continues to evolve, consumers are now able to shop online from a smart phone or using any portable device that has access to the Internet. You can shop online while you wait for your children to come out of their dancing class, at the pediatrician waiting room, at the airport before boarding a flight, at the hair salon while you get a nice pedicure!

Retail Benefits is a fast growing shopping portal with links to the biggest names in retail. With their advanced search technology you can find in seconds the best price for a specific item, you can compare between retailers and find the best deal. The best part, is that it has a list of more than 2,000 registered non-profit organizations and you can select to donate all or part of your rewards to your favorite charity. This amazing shopping portal has also a Green Mall with over 20,000 products that are better for you, for your health, your family and of course for our planet with the best eco-friendly brands.

So next time you want to buy shoes at your retail mall, think that you can probably find the same exact model, for a much lower price!
