Innovative Approaches To Retail And Dining 

Restaurant Payments

Best Buy recently revealed plans to grow its product offerings into the travel and outdoor living categories. In eCommerce, Amazon is asking social media firms and consumer protection watchdogs to do more to safeguard unwitting buyers and well-intentioned sellers from an increasing spate of fraudulent activity. And in dining, more consumers than ever are harnessing restaurant loyalty programs, but many do not use them because they do not have access to them. All this, Today in Data.
