Besides waiting for Shopify Integration, what are the best ecom platforms for webstudio?
At a glance
The post asks about ecommerce platforms that community members have integrated with Webstudio. The comments discuss several options, including:
1. Single product purchases with a hosted checkout like Stripe, which may not require additional backend logic.
2. Cart functionality with a first-party checkout, which may require some backend logic.
3. Cart functionality with a native checkout, which the community members are planning but are unsure of the effort level.
The comments also mention Payload CMS as a potential headless ecommerce solution using Stripe, and Fourthwall as an alternative to Shopify with lower fees. However, some community members suggest that Stripe may be a simpler and more suitable option for small shops.
There is no explicitly marked answer, but the community members seem to be exploring different options and sharing their thoughts and experiences.
That's a good question. I think there are several setups, not all possible yet
1 Single product purchases as no cart functionality is needed. I would think this would work with providers that have a hosted checkout like Stripe.
2 Cart functionality and or first-party checkout. I would assume you need some backend logic for this. I could totally be wrong. Maybe something using n8n or Buildship could get you what you need.
3 Cart functionality and checkout native. This is more in line with what we have planned. Not sure of the effort level, but CMS launch was probably the majority of functionality. Just guessing.
on the other hand this particular counter could be something you should do in just js and maybe stripe's client has already functions for that, so you might not even need to fetch manually
Recently I've looked into Fourthwall because Youtube Shopping has an integration with them (beside Shopify integration). Seems they are a Merchant Of Record taking care of taxes and doing extremely low percentages. Much lower than Shopify or Gumroad.
Most people don't need merchant of record and most low volume shops don't need to comply with that either even if they sell internationally. Yes it's not 100 legal but also it's a bunch of crap only big shops need to comply with local regulations across the world.
Hello ! When is Shopify Headless CMS integration planned for ? ( that would be obviously a massive game changer - not having to think of using Webflow + Wized or any Shopiflow or alikes )
