Mobile Commerce often referred to as "M-Commerce" or "mCommerce" is a new dimension or extension of e-Commerce that is performed by mobile devices and Personal Digital Assistants (PDA) using mobile phone networks. As the number of mobile users is increasing dramatically the prospect of m-commerce is also increasing day by day in developing countries like Bangladesh. Though there are a lot of researchers has written about the prospect and adoption of M-commerce but in my research, I tried to find out the statistical analysis of mobile users, mobile internet users; M-commerce current status in Bangladesh. Research also has been done for a number of visitors of stakeholder's site, using the ranking tools, uses of mobile apps by customers and limitation of mobile commerce adoption in Bangladesh those were not discussed earlier. Here, I collected data through web and phone call from various stakeholders, in the top line m-commerce business, studied and identified the problem, shown the current status and major barriers of M-commerce and suggested a methodological framework.
