The latest numbers out of the payments and commerce world show eCommerce and other retail gains for a major U.S.-based player, while another company – one more closely focused on lending – showed growth in personal and auto loans.

Data:
43 percent: Walmart’s year-over-year eCommerce growth in Q4.
39 percent: Share of U.K. banking customers who prefer using apps for banking.
$2.87 billion: Amount of Q4 loan originations for LendingClub.
1 million: Number of users of U.K. challenger bank Monzo.
