In Arabic, buying and selling is called al bai'u, which means selling, replacing, or exchanging something. Meanwhile, according to Article 1457 of the Civil Code (KUHPer), buying and selling is an agreement in which one party is obliged to hand over an object, and the other party pays a sum of money as an agreed price. In the modern era, transactions do not only take place directly, but also through digital platforms such as e-commerce and social commerce. E-commerce includes trading activities through electronic media, either in the form of applications or websites. Meanwhile, social commerce utilizes social media to sell products or services directly, allowing customers to make transactions without changing platforms. Examples of e-commerce that are popular in Indonesia include Shopee, Tokopedia, and Lazada, while social commerce includes Tiktok Shop, Instagram, and Facebook.
