One back end, many heads

Pick an engine. Switch on the channels it serves.

Every head uses the same products, prices and stock through APIs.

Speed and sales

What a faster page is worth

Move the load time. Conversion tends to fall as pages slow down. Illustrative curve, not your data.

Four ways to build each page

Pick a strategy to see when the HTML is made and what it suits. We mix them per page.

Rules and standards

Rules every online store must follow

What each one asks of your store, and how we handle it in the build.

PCI DSS and card dataCard details are handled by PCI DSS certified gateways, so your store never stores card numbers.GST invoicesEvery order needs a GST-compliant invoice with GSTIN, HSN codes and tax split. Larger businesses also need e-invoicing.DPDP Act 2023India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act asks for clear consent and a privacy notice for customer data.E-commerce rulesThe Consumer Protection (E-Commerce) Rules ask stores to show seller details, return and refund policies and a grievance contact.Card tokenisationRBI rules mean saved cards use gateway tokens instead of card numbers stored by the merchant.Accessibility and speedReadable, keyboard-friendly pages and good Core Web Vitals help every shopper and support search rankings.

FAQ

Headless commerce questions

Answers for foundry owners, accountants and sales teams.

What is headless commerce?

A setup where the storefront is built separately from the commerce engine and talks to it through APIs, so each can change without the other.

Why go headless?

Faster pages, full design freedom, one back end for web, app and other channels, and the option to swap parts later.

Which commerce engines can you use?

Shopify (including Hydrogen), BigCommerce, commercetools, Salesforce Commerce Cloud, Medusa, Saleor or a custom back end.

Will headless improve SEO?

It can. Server rendering, clean markup and fast loads help, as long as redirects, metadata and structured data are handled carefully.

Can our marketing team still edit pages?

Yes. A headless CMS gives them page building, scheduling and previews without developers.

Is headless more expensive?

Usually more to build and host than a theme, so it suits brands where speed, design or several channels clearly pay off.

What are SSR, SSG and ISR?

Ways of building pages: on each request, ahead of time, or ahead of time with background refresh. We mix them per page for speed and freshness.

Can we move to headless gradually?

Yes. We can start with key pages, such as product and category pages, and route the rest to the old store until everything moves.

How long does a headless build take?

As an estimate, 10 to 24 weeks, depending on pages, engine and integrations.
