Costa Rica's e-commerce sector is rapidly expanding, with projected revenues reaching USD 1.2 billion in 2026. The adoption of mobile commerce continues to dominate, accounting for 70% of all online transactions, driven by increased smartphone penetration and improved internet access across urban and rural areas. Same-day delivery services now encompass 45% of online orders, reflecting logistics advances and consumer demand for faster service.
The logistics infrastructure has significantly improved, reducing average delivery times to just 4 hours for same-day orders. This efficiency boost has contributed to higher customer satisfaction and loyalty. As digital adoption grows, more small and medium enterprises are entering the e-commerce space, further fueling the sector's growth and transforming Costa Rica into a regional digital commerce hub.
