Web Commerce Interest Group Rechartered with New Mission
W3C has just rechartered the Web Commerce Interest Group to improve Commerce on the Web for users, merchants, and other stakeholders. This charter represents the next iteration of the Web Payments Interest Group. Changes to the charter reflect the broader scope of Interest Group discussions that have been taking place over the past year, including topics such as:
- digital offers (coupons, loyalty, etc.)
- payments from a variety of devices, including mobile devices, automobiles (in-car payments), televisions, virtual reality, and Internet of Things devices
- various aspects of payment flow, including initiation of payment, recurring payments, receipts, and refunds
- emerging regulations
- fraud reduction
- harmonization with other standards
