E-Commerce

commerce describes the process of buying, selling, transferring, or exchanging


products, services, or information through computer networks, including the
Internet.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

 E-commerce is the buying and selling of goods and services over the
internet.
 It is conducted over computers, tablets, smartphones, and other smart
devices.
 Almost anything can be purchased through e-commerce today, which makes
e-commerce highly competitive.
 It involves more than one party along with the exchange of data or currency
to process a transaction.

The following are the different types of e-commerce platforms:

1. Business-to-Business (B2B)
2. Business-to-Consumer (B2C)
3. Consumer-to-Consumer (C2C)
4. Consumer-to-Business (C2B)
5. Business-to-Administration (B2A)
6. Consumer-to-Administration (C2A)

Business-to-Business (B2B)

A B2B model of business involves the conduct of trade between two or more
businesses/companies. The channels of such trade generally include conventional
wholesalers and producers who are dealing with retailers.

Business-to-Consumer (B2C)

Business-to-Consumer model of business deals with the retail aspects of e-


commerce, i.e. the sale of goods and/or services to the end consumer through digital
means. The facility, which has taken the business world by storm, enables the
consumer to have a detailed look at their proposed procurements before placing an
order. After the placement of such orders, the company/agent receiving the order
will then deliver the same to the consumer in a convenient time-span. Some of the
businesses operating in this channel include well-known players like Amazon,
Flipkart, etc. This mode of purchase has proved to be beneficial to the consumers
when compared to the traditional method, as they are endowed with access to
helpful contents which may guide their purchases appropriately.
Consumer-to-Consumer (C2C)

This business model is leveraged by a consumer for selling used goods and/or
services to other consumers through the digital medium. The transactions here are
pursued through a platform provided by a third party, the likes of which include OLX,
Quickr, etc.

Consumer-to-Business (C2B)

A C2B model is the exact reversal of a B2C model. While the latter is serviced to the
consumer by a business, the C2B model provides the end consumers with an
opportunity to sell their products/services to companies. The method is popular in
crowdsourcing based projects, the nature of which typically includes logo designing,
sale of royalty-free photographs/media/design elements, and so on and so forth.
Note – the term ‘crowdsourcing’ was coined in the year 2005 as a sourcing model
that facilities individuals/organizations to obtain goods/services from internet users.

Business-to-Administration (B2A)

This model enables online dealings between companies and public administration,
i.e. the Government by enabling the exchange of information through central
websites. It provides businesses with a platform to bid on government opportunities
such as auctions, tenders, application submission, etc. The scope of this model is
now enhanced, thanks to the investments made towards e-government.

Consumer-to-Administration (C2A)

The C2A platform is meant for consumers, who may use it for requesting information
or posting feedbacks concerning public sectors directly to the government
authorities/administration.
