What is Headless Commerce?
Headless commerce development separates the frontend of your website (what your customers see and use) from the backend of your ecommerce platform (your data and business logic). The BigCommerce headless approach leverages APIs to connect various frontend channels to a robust backend system, allowing for unparalleled customization and performance.
Why Choose Headless Architecture?
When your website’s frontend and backend operate independently, changes on one end do not affect the other. This means businesses can optimize the customer experience through frequent updates to their frontend or manage multiple unique storefronts without risking backend functionality. Major benefits of the BigCommerce headless approach include:
- More creative control with frontend design
- Significant site performance improvement
- Unified omnichannel experience
- Flexibility for integrations

Headless vs. Composable Commerce: Which is Best?
Headless Commerce decouples the frontend of a website (how it looks and functions for users) from the backend (where ecommerce functions happen). This allows you to build highly-customized frontend experiences while the backend manages operations like inventory, payments, and customer data.
Composable Commerce takes this a step further, breaking down the entire ecommerce system into individual, modular services (like checkout, inventory, and payments). Each service can be selected and scaled independently.
There’s no one-size-fits-all solution for every business. Our BigCommerce experts will evaluate your resources and long-term goals to help determine which approach best fits your unique needs.

What our clients have to say
Professional and Reliable
We hired IntuitSolutions to build our customized BigCommerce store from the ground up. We had no previous design, no experience with BigCommerce, and really no experience with a storefront. We had been selling through the online marketplaces for years and decided it was time to start promoting our brand and driving traffic to our own site… Intuit laid out a full project timeline and worked with us to iron out these details. They were patient and extremely thorough in explaining even the most basic fundamentals of putting the storefront together.

Such a talented bunch of people!
I needed some bespoke work done on our BigCommerce site, and was looking around when Intuit Solutions kept coming up as a knowledgeable company. I dipped my toe in the water with them, and was blown away by their helpfulness and their in-depth expertise. Where I may fear to tinker with the details of our site, this lot will have the bonnet (hood) up and be deep-diving into code in order to optimise everything. Make no mistake, Intuit Solutions know what they’re doing, so you can take comfort in your site being in safe hands.

Excellent Partners!
We recently moved our website to the Big Commerce Stencil platform. Our site required some fairly extensive customization and Intuit was able to help us through the integration process with no problems. They were great through the whole experience. We had a very successful launch in September followed by a great Holiday sales season. I’d recommend them to anyone! A+++
