Holiday Shoppers Favor Experience Gifts and Secure, Flexible Payments

Paysafe Ltd. has published new global consumer research highlighting shifting holiday shopping trends. According to the "Inside the Wallet: Holiday Edition" report, nearly half of shoppers now prefer gifting or receiving experiences-such as travel, dining, and entertainment-over physical items. The study, which surveyed 8,500 consumers across several countries, also found that flexible payment options and strong transactional security are increasingly important, with many consumers abandoning purchases if their preferred payment method is unavailable or if they have concerns about payment safety. The report indicates a continued strong demand for travel and experiences, growing interest in digital and omnichannel retail, and sustained support for small businesses during the festive season.
