Some 61% of the Romanian Internet users made purchases online at least once last year.

The IT products are the most sought-after category, followed by the fashion and personal care products, said Guillaume Guerrin, ‎Ipsos Head of Online and Mobile Research for Europe & CIS,cited by local Wall-street.ro.

About 92% of the Romanians who buy online prefer to pay on delivery, and 60% also pay by credit card. By comparison, only 5% of the people buying online in the UK pay on delivery.

Romanians are afraid to give away information on their bank account, said Guerrin.

The most recent average transaction made online totaled EUR 110.
