What Is It?

BigCommerce integrates with over 100 of the most popular applications you already use, making it easy to update your orders and inventory, retrieve product details, automate your marketing and much, much more.

Our $2,000,000 integration fund was setup to contribute towards development costs for companies interested in building integrations or useful web/mobile/desktop applications that make use of the BigCommerce API.

Who Can Apply?

Anyone who would like to build an integration or web/mobile/desktop application that makes use of the BigCommerce API.

Your integration or application should make it easier for BigCommerce clients to run their businesses and/or help them attract more visitors, orders or repeat purchases.

What Should I Build?

There are hundreds of existing devices, applications and web services that can be useful to BigCommerce clients. We're looking for integrations or applications that make use of them to help our clients become more successful.

Here are a few ideas to get you started:

  • Build an integration with a popular inventory management system
  • Create an iPad app that allows merchants to set time sensitive product discounts
  • Create an Adobe Air app to ship multiple orders in a single click
  • Build a web service that pushes new products to Facebook or Twitter
  • Create a mobile app that lets a merchant take photos and assign them to products
  • Build a web service that adds new customers to an email marketing system
  • Create an analytics app to show drill-down marketing reports

How Do I Build An Integration or Application?

Our API documentation includes detailed step-by-step instructions as well as coding samples to get you up and running. You can use whichever language you like to build on the BigCommerce API, such as Ruby, Java, PHP, Javascript or Python — we even have a dedicated API support team if you get stuck.

How Much Will I Receive?

Distribution of our integration fund is based on the complexity and usefulness of your application or integration. When you apply we'll ask you some questions that will help us determine the fair portion of our integration fund to apply to your project.

How Can I Apply?

Developers interested in receiving a portion of our $2,000,000 integration fund should complete our application form. Funds will be determined on a project-by-project basis, based on how much of a positive impact your application or integration will have on our clients.
