BigCommerce for WordPress
300+ active installs · Rated 3.9/5 · Updated December 12, 2024
A plugin connecting WordPress to the BigCommerce platform, so the site handles content and design while BigCommerce runs catalogue management, payments and fulfilment. It includes an embedded checkout that takes care of payment security, and selling across other channels from one place. It suits growing shops that want to keep WordPress as their front end. The plugin is free, but it needs a paid BigCommerce account.
Pros
- WordPress front end with BigCommerce catalogue and checkout
- Gutenberg blocks for cart, checkout and gift certificates
Cons
- Needs a separate BigCommerce store account
- Tied to BigCommerce; not a standalone WooCommerce store
