Analysis based on 6 articles · First reported Dec 01, 2025 · Last updated Dec 01, 2025
The record-breaking Cyber Monday and Cyber Week spending in the United States, as estimated by Adobe Experience Cloud and Salesforce, indicates strong consumer demand despite economic uncertainties. This surge in online sales, particularly through mobile devices and 'buy now, pay later' plans, directly benefits e-commerce retailers and payment providers, while also providing insights into overall consumer confidence and spending habits for the holiday season.
Cyber Monday, the culmination of the post-Thanksgiving shopping marathon, saw United States consumers drive record online spending, with Adobe Experience Cloud estimating US$14.2 billion spent on Monday alone. This follows strong sales on Black Friday and Thanksgiving Day, contributing to a robust Cyber Week. Despite wider economic uncertainty, rising retail prices, and anxieties over job security and tariffs imposed by Donald Trump, consumers are expected to spend over US$1 trillion this holiday season, according to the National Retail Federation. The growth rate, however, is slowing compared to the previous year. Mobile devices have become the dominant shopping platform, and 'buy now, pay later' plans are increasingly popular, expected to drive US$20.2 billion in online spending. Companies like Walmart and Amazon (company) offered significant discounts, while new electronics such as the iPhone 17, Google Pixel 10, Samsung Galaxy S25, and Nintendo Switch 2 are anticipated to be hot sellers.
