    FAQ’s

    Headless eCommerce is the separation of the front and back-end of an eCommerce application, which allows for increased agility and adaptability. On the other hand, traditional eCommerce platforms have a predefined front-end that is tightly coupled with the back-end, providing little room for customization or personalization. With headless commerce, developers and marketers are free to build everything from scratch, making it easier to make any desired customizations.

    Headless commerce enables brands to offer a multi-channel experience, delivering content, products, and payment gateways to smartwatches, kiosk screens, and everything. It helps businesses to create an incredible customer experience by tailoring product and service offerings, pricing, and other content to the customer’s interests and needs. It also enables companies to react faster to market changes and reduce time-to-market for product enhancements and features.

    While not every ecommerce store needs a headless solution, it can be an excellent option for modern businesses looking to scale and rapidly provide an immersive, cross-channel shopping experience. Factors like the desire to use a headless CMS, multiple stores, international sales, complete design control, and advanced front-end tech can make going headless an intelligent choice.

    Headless commerce works by separating the front-end and back-end of an eCommerce application through APIs. APIs allow for real-time communication between the two, enabling unified customer experiences and more significant business agility and adaptability.

    Headless commerce solutions offer scalability, unique customization, instant reaction to market changes, and improved security. However, some risks are also involved, such as initial costs and more complicated control due to limited content preview and presentation functionality.

    Some prominent examples of headless ecommerce platforms are Shopify Headless Commerce, Headless PrestaShop eCommerce, Headless OpenCart eCommerce, Headless WooCommerce, BigCommerce headless commerce, Salesforce headless commerce, Magento headless commerce etc.
