Store Management

A Webround Commerce Store is an enterprise-grade transactional engine, conceived with a headless-first approach. It provides the core business logic required to transform any digital interface into a robust, high-conversion e-commerce ecosystem.

Headless Architecture and Open Logic

Unlike traditional "monolithic" e-commerce builders, a Webround Store is architecturally independent from the design layer (the Draft). It operates as a dynamic, cloud-native entity powered by specialized databases and optimized search indices.

This decoupling is the foundation of Webround's Open Logic positioning:

  • Infrastructure as a Service: Leverage a high-performance backend without managing servers, database scaling, or security patches.
  • Logic Freedom: While the platform handles the "heavy lifting" (authentication, cart synchronization, tax calculation), you maintain total control over the business flow via APIs and Hooks.
  • Platform Agnostic: Being headless, the Store is not limited to Webround sites. It can serve as a transactional layer for mobile apps, custom React/Next.js projects, or legacy enterprise systems.

Core Operational Features

The Store organizes the complexity of modern commerce into modular, reliable, and ready-to-use components:

Webround utilizes a high-speed search index to manage products, variants, and stock.

  • Dynamic Collections: Organize products via attributes, tags, and automated filters.
  • Multilingual Core: Native support for product and category translations, designed for international scale.

2. Operations and Compliance

  • Advanced Tax Engine: Manage tax zones for different jurisdictions, ensuring compliance with the EU OSS regime and international tax regulations.
  • Logistics Layer: Configure granular shipping zones and methods based on weight, fixed prices, or custom logic.

3. Webround Auth (Identity-as-a-Service)

A native and secure authentication service for your customers.

  • Security: Supports 2FA (Two-Factor Authentication) and identity verification.
  • GDPR Ready: Built-in tools for data portability, account deletion, and anonymization.
  • Full Lifecycle: Manages password resets, newsletter opt-ins, and secure session handling.

Stripe Integration: No Vendor Lock-in

Webround operates under a Total Transparency philosophy. Every store integrates natively with Stripe using the Standard connection mode.

  • Direct Ownership: Your Stripe account remains yours. Webround acts only as a technical orchestrator.
  • Financial Autonomy: Funds flow directly to your account. We do not hold your money or act as a "Merchant of Record."
  • Compliance: We handle the complex API orchestration for Stripe Checkout, ensuring PCI-DSS compliance and allowing you to support over 90+ local payment methods worldwide.

Collaborative Management

The Store is built for teams. The owner can invite Collaborators with granular permissions:

  • Role-Based Access: Restrict access to specific modules (e.g., allow a warehouse manager to see only Orders and Inventory, while blocking access to Settings or Financials).
  • Isolated Environments: Each store is a secure silo, ensuring zero data leakage between different projects or clients.

Extending the Store

To go beyond standard behavior, the Store provides professional-grade extension points:

  • Public APIs: Consume catalog and checkout data from any environment.
  • Webhooks: Trigger external workflows (ERP synchronization, CRM updates, custom Slack notifications) based on store events.
  • Checkout Hook: Inject server-side logic to recalculate prices or apply B2B rules in real-time.
