[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Hye-seon] Lotte ON's payment amount in November has more than doubled compared to May, right after its launch. This is the result of aggressively conducting sale marketing to attract customers since last September.
Lotte ON announced on the 3rd, "The number of customers visiting Lotte ON last month increased by 68.7% compared to May," and "the average monthly payment amount per customer also grew by 25.6%."

Starting from September, Lotte ON has been holding the regular event "First Monday" on the first Monday of every month. In October, it held "Lotte ON Sesang," an integrated event for Lotte's distribution affiliates, and last month, it conducted "Again Lotte ON Sesang" and "Lotte ON Black Friday," among others.
Comparing last month's sales by product category with those in May, sales growth was highest in electronics, including large home appliances with significant price benefits during events, as well as laptops, tablets, and computer peripherals, with a growth rate of 229.1%. Due to the impact of COVID-19, sports leisure sales such as golf and camping equipment and sportswear increased by 182.6%. Additionally, luxury goods sales rose by 107.6% compared to May, thanks to duty-free inventory luxury sales and luxury day events. Sales of food, clothing, and beauty products, which have the largest sales proportions, also increased by 62.5%, 182.3%, and 103.6%, respectively.
