Re: <u>Commerce.com, Inc. – Registration Statement on Form S-8</u>

To the addressees set forth above:

We have acted as special counsel to Commerce.com, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the preparation and filing by the Company on the date hereof with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") of a Registration Statement (the "Registration Statement") on Form S-8 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), relating to the issuance of up to 4,022,971 shares of Series 1 common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (the "Shares"), which may be issued pursuant to the Commerce.com, Inc. 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2020 Plan"), (i) 3,928,833 of which became available for issuance under the 2020 Plan on January 1, 2025 and (ii) 94,138 of which became available for issuance under the 2020 Plan on January 1, 2026 due to the automatic annual increase provisions of the 2020 Plan. This opinion is being furnished in connection with the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K under the Act, and no opinion is expressed herein as to any matter pertaining to the contents of the Registration Statement or related prospectus, other than as expressly stated herein with respect to the issuance of the Shares.

As such counsel, we have examined such matters of fact and questions of law as we have considered appropriate for purposes of this letter. With your consent, we have relied upon certificates and other assurances of officers of the Company and others as to factual matters without having independently verified such factual matters. We are opining herein as to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, and we express no opinion with respect to any other laws.

Subject to the foregoing and the other matters set forth herein, it is our opinion that, as of the date hereof, when the Shares shall have been duly registered on the books of the transfer agent and registrar therefor in the name or on behalf of the recipients thereof, and have been issued by the Company for legal consideration in excess of par value in the circumstances contemplated by the 2020 Plan, assuming in each case that the individual grants or awards under the 2020 Plan are duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and duly granted or awarded and exercised in accordance of the law and the 2020 Plan (and the agreements and awards duly adopted thereunder and in accordance therewith), the issue and sale of the Shares will have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action of the Company, and the Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. In rendering the foregoing opinion, we have assumed that the Company will comply with all applicable notice requirements regarding uncertificated shares provided in the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

<br> This opinion is for your benefit in connection with the Registration Statement and may be relied upon by you and by

In giving such consent, we do not thereby admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.

Sincerely,
