commoditised
Made uniformly tradeable
Commoditised is the British spelling of commoditized.
Something commoditised has become a commodity—a standardized product competing mainly on price rather than unique qualities.
The term often carries a negative tone, suggesting loss of distinctiveness or value: Air travel has been completely commoditised.
Technology, services, and even creative work can become commoditised as markets mature and competitors multiply.
