Unlike generalist marketplaces where baskets are often driven by low-cost everyday purchases, specialised Consumer Electronics marketplaces typically generate significantly higher average order values. Categories such as electronics, domestic appliances and computing consistently rank among the highest-performing segments in terms of basket size, driven by premium products, bundled purchases and high-consideration buying journeys.

This is particularly visible on specialised platforms such as Ubaldi, where large domestic appliances and premium home equipment naturally increase average order values, and PcComponentes, whose strong positioning in gaming, computing and high-performance electronics contributes to larger baskets than those typically observed on generalist marketplaces.

 

The European Consumer Electronics & Home Appliances market at a glance

  • One of Europe’s largest e-commerce categories: Consumer Electronics remains one of the biggest online retail segments across Europe, driven by strong demand for smartphones, gaming, computing, smart home devices and domestic appliances. Consumer electronics generated more than €220 billion in online sales across Europe in 2024, making it one of the continent’s largest e-commerce categories.
  • Omnichannel retailers dominate: unlike many other sectors, Consumer Electronics in Europe is still heavily led by established specialist retailers combining physical stores, e-commerce and marketplace ecosystems. MediaMarktSaturn alone operates more than 1,000 stores across 11 European countries, while Fnac Darty generated over €8 billion in annual revenue in 2024.
  • Marketplace expansion accelerates: major CE retailers such as Fnac Darty, MediaMarktSaturn and Boulanger are increasingly opening their platforms to third-party sellers to expand assortment and compete with Amazon. Marketplace models are becoming a major growth driver for European electronics retailers looking to increase catalogue depth without expanding owned inventory.
  • Refurbished electronics continue to grow: recommerce and refurbished tech are rapidly gaining market share across Europe, driven by sustainability concerns and consumer demand for affordable premium devices. Back Market now operates across multiple European countries and has become one of the leading refurbished electronics marketplaces globally, benefiting from Europe’s fast-growing circular economy market.
  • Cross-border opportunity remains strong: specialised electronics marketplaces allow brands to scale internationally while benefiting from trusted local retail brands and category-specific audiences. Cross-border e-commerce in Europe surpassed €237 billion in 2024, with electronics remaining one of the strongest international product categories.
