What We Build for Retail & eCommerce

Headless storefronts, multi-vendor marketplaces, OMS/IMS, POS integration, loyalty platforms, PIM, D2C and B2B portals, AI personalisation, and retail analytics.

01

Custom eCommerce Storefront

Bespoke eCommerce platform — product catalogue and PIM integration, advanced search and filtering (Elasticsearch/Algolia), faceted navigation, product configurator, personalised homepage and category pages, multi-currency and multi-language, guest checkout and account, wishlist, recently viewed, cross-sell and upsell, and conversion-optimised checkout with Apple/Google Pay.

02

Headless Commerce (Next.js + API)

Headless architecture decoupling frontend from commerce backend — Next.js storefront with sub-second page loads, connected to Shopify, Magento, Commercetools, or a custom commerce API. Deliver rich content experiences (blogs, lookbooks, quizzes) alongside product pages, with a single unified cart and checkout. PWA capability for offline browsing and app-like UX.

03

Multi-Vendor Marketplace

Full marketplace platform — vendor onboarding and verification, individual vendor storefronts, multi-vendor cart and checkout, payment splitting and commission management (Stripe Connect), order routing by vendor, vendor dashboard (orders, inventory, payouts, reviews), dispute management, admin moderation tools, and consumer-facing marketplace with advanced search and recommendation.

04

Order & Inventory Management System

Unified commerce OMS/IMS — multi-channel order aggregation (website, marketplaces, POS, social), inventory sync across locations (warehouse, store, 3PL), real-time stock levels, purchase order management, demand forecasting, batch fulfilment, returns management (RMA), and integration with 3PL and carrier APIs (FedEx, UPS, DHL, Royal Mail, Australia Post).

05

POS Integration & Omnichannel Retail

Connect online and in-store commerce — POS integration (Square, Lightspeed, Shopify POS, EPOS Now), unified customer profile across channels, click-and-collect (BOPIS), in-store return of online orders, shared inventory view, staff lookup tools, loyalty integration at POS, and real-time sales and stock reporting across all retail locations and channels.

06

Loyalty, Rewards & Subscription Commerce

Customer retention technology — points-based loyalty engine (earn on purchase, redeem at checkout), tier management (Bronze/Silver/Gold), referral programme, subscription commerce (subscribe-and-save, box subscription, replenishment), digital loyalty card, loyalty app (iOS/Android), CRM segments for loyalty communications, and churn prediction to trigger retention offers.

Client Outcomes

Retail & eCommerce Clients

Fashion retailers, marketplace founders, and D2C brands on building eCommerce technology with 1Solutions.

★★★★★

1Solutions rebuilt our eCommerce platform as a headless Next.js storefront on top of our Magento 2 backend. Page load time dropped from 6.2s to under 1s, Core Web Vitals went green across the board, and our checkout conversion rate improved by 34% in the first 90 days. Best technical investment we have made in three years of trading.

ET
Head of eCommerce, Fashion Retailer (UK)
★★★★★

We hired 1Solutions to build our multi-vendor marketplace from scratch — vendor onboarding, product listing, Stripe Connect payment splitting, vendor dashboards, and a consumer app. MVP launched in 16 weeks. We now have 340 vendors and process $2.8M GMV per month. Their marketplace architecture expertise is genuinely rare.

JW

1Solutions built our D2C subscription platform — subscribe-and-save, box subscription, loyalty programme, and a customer portal. Subscription revenue went from 0 to 28% of total revenue in 8 months. The loyalty app has a 4.8 rating in the App Store. Exceptional retail technology team — they understood our brand and our customers.

Headless Commerce Specialists

Next.js headless storefronts on Shopify, Magento, Commercetools, and custom backends — sub-second page loads, Core Web Vitals 90+, PWA capability, and content-rich editorial experiences alongside product pages.

Conversion Rate Focus

We treat checkout conversion as the primary KPI. Every storefront we build is instrumented, A/B tested, and optimised — average 25–40% checkout conversion improvement in the first 90 days post-launch.

Stripe Connect Marketplace Expertise

Multi-vendor payment splitting, vendor onboarding (KYC), payout management, and dispute handling with Stripe Connect — the correct way to handle marketplace payments, not workarounds.

Omnichannel Retail Architecture

Connecting online, POS, mobile, and marketplace into a unified customer view — shared inventory, customer profiles, loyalty, and order history across every channel a shopper might use.

PIM & Feed Management

Centralised product data with multi-channel publishing to website, Amazon, eBay, Google Shopping, and Meta — automated feed generation, attribute mapping, and retailer-specific formatting for wholesale portals.

AI Personalisation & Recommendation

Product recommendation engines, personalised homepage and category sorting, dynamic pricing, and post-purchase sequences — retail AI that is measurably connected to revenue, not a vanity feature.

Post-Launch Growth Partnership

Launch is the beginning, not the end. We offer sprint-based post-launch growth cycles — A/B testing, personalisation, new channel integrations, and performance monitoring — aligned to your trading calendar.

FAQ

Retail & eCommerce Software — FAQ

Headless commerce, marketplace platforms, OMS, loyalty, subscriptions, ERP integration, and more.

Custom eCommerce storefronts, headless commerce (Next.js), multi-vendor marketplaces, D2C and B2B portals, OMS and inventory management, POS integration, loyalty and subscription platforms, PIM systems, personalisation engines, and retail analytics dashboards.
Both. We build on Shopify (custom apps, themes, headless Hydrogen), Magento 2, WooCommerce, and BigCommerce. We also build fully custom eCommerce platforms for retailers that have outgrown SaaS platforms or need proprietary technology.
MVP marketplace (vendor onboarding, listing, checkout, payment splitting, order management): 12–18 weeks. Full-featured marketplace with AI search, recommendation, mobile app, and vendor analytics: 6–9 months. MVP-first approach recommended.
Headless commerce separates the storefront (frontend) from the commerce backend (Shopify, Magento, custom). Benefits: sub-second page loads, Core Web Vitals 90+, content-rich pages, PWA capability. Trade-off: more complex than a standard theme, higher build cost. Recommended for retailers with $2M+ revenue where site speed directly affects conversion.
Yes — SAP, NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics, Oracle, and custom ERP integration. Bidirectional sync of products, inventory, orders, customers, and pricing. We build integration layers (API middleware) that normalise data between systems and handle error retry, alerting, and reconciliation.
Multi-currency: real-time FX rate feeds, currency switcher, currency-specific pricing rules, and localised payment methods. Multi-language: i18n framework (Next.js built-in or i18next), CMS-driven translation workflow, hreflang tags for SEO, and RTL support for Arabic/Hebrew where required.
Yes — subscribe-and-save (variable product subscription), box subscription (curated recurring delivery), replenishment (auto-reorder when stock runs low), subscription portal (pause/skip/swap/cancel), and loyalty integration for subscribers. Built on Stripe Billing or Recharge, or custom-built for full ownership.
Frontend: Next.js (headless), React Native (mobile app). Commerce: Shopify, Magento 2, or custom Node.js. Search: Elasticsearch or Algolia. Payments: Stripe/Stripe Connect. Cloud: AWS/Vercel. CDN: Cloudflare. Emails: Klaviyo. Analytics: GA4, Segment, Snowflake.
