What is BigCommerce?

BigCommerce is a leading SaaS e-commerce platform serving over 60,000 merchants including Sony, Ben & Jerry's, and Skull Candy. It provides a fully hosted storefront, built-in SEO tools, multi-channel selling across Amazon, eBay, Facebook, and Instagram, no transaction fees on any plan, and advanced B2B functionality. BigCommerce is known for having more built-in features than Shopify without requiring paid apps, making it particularly cost-effective for high-volume merchants. Its headless commerce capabilities are popular with enterprise development teams building custom storefronts.
