What is headless eCommerce and why choose it?

Headless eCommerce separates the frontend website (Next.js) from the backend database (Shopify). This allows you to design custom user flows and achieve faster page speeds while using Shopify's secure admin dashboard.

Will our team still manage inventory on Shopify?

Yes, your team will continue to manage products, inventory, and orders in the standard Shopify admin interface.

How do you handle international tax and shipping rates?

We integrate APIs like TaxJar or Avalara for tax calculations, and carriers like Shippo, UPS, or DHL for real-time shipping rates during checkout.

Can we implement subscription-based products?

Yes, we integrate subscription tools like Recharge, Stripe Billing, or Swell to handle recurring transactions and customer account dashboards.
