buyer
Pays for merchandise
A buyer is someone who purchases something.
The word often implies a role rather than a single transaction: a buyer for a department store selects merchandise professionally, while first-time home buyers represent a category in real estate markets.
In business contexts, buyers negotiate with sellers: We need to find a buyer for the company.
