Capital One’s Shopping Tool Advances The Digital Economy

Capital One Bank recently launching of a free, online shopping tool that instantly searches for testing coupon codes or retailers with better prices serves as one more example the nation shifting to a digital economy. The international accounting firm Deloitte defines a digital economy as “the economic activity that results from billions of everyday online connections among people, businesses, devices, data, and processes.” Deloitte also points out that the backbone of the digital economy is “hyperconnectivity…the growing interconnectedness of people, organizations and machines that results from the Internet, mobile technology and the internet of things (IoT).”

All digital-driven advancements in how we conduct our business, from simple retail transactions to complicated transferring of sensitive information, require secure, superior Internet connectivity. As a result, companies must give greater consideration to their Internet situation. Are they getting the greatest amount of value from their provider? Does the level of service provided by their ISP reflect the money spent on said service? Or are they treated with indifference or disdain?
