Commercial transactions involve payment for goods or services and are governed by commercial law. They can occur between businesses, consumers, or individuals and can take place in physical stores, online, or through direct channels. Commercial activity includes advertising and internal relationships, and is regulated by laws such as those governing product representation in advertising.

Commercial transactions are exchanges that involve some sort of payment for a good or service. These types of transactions are usually governed by commercial law and must follow specific guidelines. There are many forms of commercial transactions, including those that occur between two separate businesses, consumers and businesses, between internal divisions of a business, and between two individual consumers.

Exchanges of money for a professional product or service are generally classified as commercial transactions. Some of the more obvious exchanges of this nature include a consumer buying goods in a retail store and a manufacturer selling his products to wholesale companies. Business transactions can occur in a physical store, online, or through direct interaction with a sales representative or direct seller. The exchange of money can take place when the goods or services are delivered, before or after the fact.

Commercial trade can occur on a large or small scale. Much of the global economy depends on the level of transactions or commercial activities. Suppliers sell raw materials and goods to other companies who may resell them or use the supplies in their manufacturing processes. Goods are marketed and sold to consumers who can use them for personal or business use. At some point these products may be resold in private auctions or second hand dealers.

Transactions can be visible or take place behind the scenes. While store transactions can be observed by any casual consumer and business personnel, commercial transactions that occur between two individuals or through direct channels may not be as apparent. The producers’ sales representatives can stipulate purchase contracts, present, deliver and market any products purchased by final consumers. Additionally, there are many direct and multi-level marketing companies that sell directly to consumers without the use of a retailer or wholesaler.

Commercial activity may also include activities such as corporate advertising and internal relationships between companies and service providers, such as human resources and accounting providers. Regardless of the type of business transaction, there are usually laws governing what can and cannot happen. This legislation is often referred to as commercial law. For example, consumers typically have three days after a purchase commitment on certain goods to change their mind without financial implications.

Further examples of commercial law include the representation of products in advertising. In some countries, statements, slogans and claims may not be misleading or imply a promise that the product cannot deliver. An example of this would be a popular mouthwash brand that was forced to correct its advertising after claiming that the product could prevent the cold virus from developing and spreading.
