prisaksept

Prisaksept is a term used in Nordic business and legal contexts to describe the act of accepting a quoted price for goods or services, thereby forming a binding agreement between buyer and seller. The word combines pris (price) and aksept (acceptance), reflecting its function in contract formation.

The concept commonly arises in tender processes, quotations, and commercial sales. A price quotation or offer typically specifies the price and other essential terms such as quantity, delivery terms, and payment conditions. Prisaksept occurs when the recipient communicates agreement to the offered price and terms, within any stated validity period, and in the manner prescribed by the offer. Acceptance generally creates a contract under the stated terms, subject to the governing law and the exact language of the offer.

Key elements often involved are the clarity of the price, the included terms (delivery, payment, warranties), and the timeframe for acceptance. In practice, acceptance may be written or electronic, and it may be deemed binding once it is communicated to the party that made the offer. It can also be subject to conditions or counteroffers, which would not constitute prisaksept until mutually agreed.

Legal effect depends on jurisdiction and the specific terms of the offer. If validly accepted, the price and terms become binding obligations for both parties, limiting unilateral price changes unless permitted by the contract or applicable law.
