What is commercetools?

What is commercetools?

commercetools is a modern e-commerce platform built on the MACH principle: Microservices, API-first, Cloud-native and Headless. Instead of one heavy system, your webshop consists of separate building blocks that work together via APIs. You choose only the components you need, connect easily with existing systems, and expand quickly to new sales channels. With more than 300 API endpoints and a headless architecture, you develop front-end and back-end independently of each other. This way you respond quickly to changes in the market, without being tied to a monolithic platform.

Our approach

A MACH platform only delivers value if you build only what you need. That's what we steer on.

As an official commercetools partner, we've been building with the platform for years. We start by determining which building blocks your business actually needs and design a microservices architecture that works together via APIs. Because we work headless, the front-end connects seamlessly to your brand and channels, while the back-end can grow independently. We connect the services you need through the extensive set of APIs and build iteratively, so changes stay small, targeted and risk-free.

Whether you already work with commercetools or are considering the switch: we think along with you and only deploy the components that add value.
