Cross-border purchases are attributed to the country of the buyer. The following are not included in the eCommerce market: digitally distributed services (see instead: eServices), digital media downloads or streaming services (see instead: Digital Media), online booking of plane and concert tickets, etc. B2B eCommerce and purchase or resale of goods (reCommerce and C2C) are not included.
