Electronic Commerce Modeling Language
Electronic Commerce Modeling Language (ECML) is a protocol which enables the e-commerce merchants to standardize their online payment processes. Through the application of ECML, customers' billing information in their digital wallet can be easily transferred to fill out the online checkout forms of electronic commerce merchants.[1]
There are various companies that have participated in ECML's alliances, including American Express and Mastercard.[1]
As a standard developed by the alliance, ECML has solved the problem of complex and confusing online manual payments caused by diverse web designs, and further reduces the chance of customer dropout (also called shopping cart abandonment).[1] However, ECML also deals with sensitive information such as credit card numbers and billing addresses -- its data security is controversial, and privacy considerations should be taken.[2][3]
