What is BigCommerce all about?
An e-commerce platform for businesses that aim high
BigCommerce is a cloud-based solution, available in the software as a service (SaaS) model. This type of platform is often referred to as an all-in-one service, since it provides everything you need to launch your e-commerce business and rapidly expand the sales of your physical or digital products.
Here’s how it works: for a subscription fee, you’ll receive scalable, configurable software that can be accessed through a browser on your computer or smartphone. There’s no need for disk space or a high bandwidth.
BigCommerce comes with hosting services, tools for design, marketing and SEO, a product base management function, and integration with your payment and shipping systems. You can also purchase a new domain directly through BigCommerce. All this (and much more) is provided with the highest security standards and optimal efficiency.
BigCommerce is available in two versions: Essentials and Enterprise. BigCommerce Essentials is offered with three plans: Standard – designed for retailers and B2C; and Plus and Pro – that come with additional B2B functionalities. Meanwhile, BigCommerce Enterprise includes advanced solutions for wholesalers and biggest companies.

BigCommerce in practice
There’s a good reason why BigCommerce drives e-commerce.
About 50,000 online stores, and counting, are currently based on BigCommerce. In the first quarter of 2023, the platform was used by almost 1500 companies to launch their online sales. BigCommerce has earned the trust of both online and omnichannel businesses in the B2C sector. The platform is also used by B2B enterprises.
Brands who use BigCommerce include: Ted Baker, Fujitsu, Old Spice, Skullcandy and Ben & Jerry’s.
The growing popularity of BigCommerce is hardly a coincidence. Case studies of companies who have launched their e-commerce with BigCommerce show up to a 146% increase in revenue, as well as a 104% increase in website traffic and a 50% increase in the conversion rate (Skullcandy Breaks Ecommerce and Audio Boundaries with BigCommerce, BigCommerce).
