How it works

The platform is known for flexibility: it supports multiple storefronts, B2B features, and headless commerce, and it charges no transaction fees on any payment gateway. In June 2026 the plans were renamed Core, Growth, Scale, and Performance, with sales thresholds that trigger automatic upgrades.

BigCommerce suits established stores and growing brands that need room to scale without per-transaction fees. The revenue thresholds are the catch, since a strong sales month can push you into a higher tier, but for high-volume sellers, the built-in features and flexibility are worth it.
