With statistics sourced from the database, analysts, forecasters and researchers publish industry reports, market forecasts, comparative estimates, charts, transaction KPI evaluations, economic metrics, and consumer statistics.[5] The company analyzes over 1 billion e-commerce transactions every month across various countries, which represents up to 2 percent of all worldwide online purchases.

Publications
ECDB regularly publishes reports, studies, and whitepapers. In cooperation with the EHI Retail Institute, ECDB releases the annual report “E-Commerce-Markt Deutschland”.[8][9][10] Since its first publication in 2009, the study has become one of the most frequently cited sources for e-commerce statistics in Germany.
The study determines annual market revenues in German e-commerce from a supply-side perspective by examining the top 1,000 online shops, as well as the Top 10 marketplaces by gross merchandise volume (GMV). Services, usage rights (e.g. mobile contracts), and platforms selling only digital goods (e.g. Google Play) are excluded.
