E-Commerce Platform
Definition.
E-Commerce Platform: A software application that allows online businesses to manage their website, marketing, sales and operations.
In Practice
For most small-to-mid businesses I'd point toward an existing platform (Shopify, WooCommerce) rather than a custom build — custom e-commerce only makes sense when the business logic genuinely doesn't fit an off-the-shelf platform's constraints.
