# Industries and markets

> Documentation hub for industry-specific feature recommendations and geographic market guidance.

VINR supports a broad range of business types and geographies. This section helps you understand which features matter most for your industry and how to operate compliantly in specific markets.

## What we mean by "industry" and "market"

An **industry** is a commerce sector defined by the type of goods or services produced — retail, travel, restaurant, healthcare, and so on. Different industries have distinct payment flows, fraud patterns, and regulatory requirements that influence which VINR features you should enable.

A **market** refers to a specific geographic region or regulatory environment — such as India, Japan, or the EU — where buyer-seller exchanges operate under local rules for payment methods, licensing, and data handling.
