online service
Internet-based business offering
An online service is any service accessed through the internet—from streaming platforms and cloud storage to banking and email.
The term gained currency in the 1990s when companies like AOL and CompuServe provided dial-up access and proprietary content.
Today it encompasses everything from subscription-based online services to free social media platforms.
