With ecommerce sales expected to reach more than $1.6 trillion worldwide this year, it’s becoming increasingly costly for brick-and-mortar retailers to ignore selling online. For many merchants, however, managing multiple sales channels can be challenging — no matter how big the potential reward.
Until now, that is.
Today, we’re happy to announce a new integration with Square that provides merchants with a simple, seamless way to expand their businesses online.
“Ecommerce has fundamentally changed the ways in which retailers reach and attract customers. Through this integration, we’re making it easier than ever for merchants to grow their brand and revenue without the burden of introducing additional complexity to their businesses,” said Eddie Machaalani, Bigcommerce co-founder and CEO.
Omnichannel merchants using both Bigcommerce and Square can now sell to customers across channels and get the benefit of processing payments through a single source. Even better, merchants will be able to see Square payments — both those accepted in person and those taken through a Bigcommerce store — all in one place.
What Bigcommerce and Square have built will immediately improve my day-to-day business processes, freeing time that was spent on reporting and technology to instead focus on growing sales and serving our customers.
“Trying to separately manage both an online and physical retail store can feel like running two different businesses,” said Terry Carter, CEO of Travertine Spa. “What Bigcommerce and Square have built will immediately improve my day-to-day business processes, freeing time that was spent on reporting and technology to instead focus on growing sales and serving our customers.”
Square is now available as a payment method in the Bigcommerce control panel under Setup & Tools > Payments.
