Australians spend $82.6 billion online despite budget concerns

Australian online shopping reached $82.6 billion in 2025, marking a 14% year-on-year increase, with 9.8 million households (82% of the country) regularly purchasing goods online. While average spending per transaction dropped to a five-year low of $96, Australians are shopping online more frequently, with four in ten shopping fortnightly.
