Why Connect BigCommerce to Salesforce?

Customers in BigCommerce and leads in Salesforce drift out of sync, leading to outdated details on invoices, emails, and reports

Reporting across BigCommerce and Salesforce requires painful manual exports and spreadsheet merges

No single source of truth when contacts live in two disconnected tools, so staff second-guess which system has the correct information

New team members take longer to onboard because they must learn manual workarounds to keep BigCommerce and Salesforce aligned

Manually copying data between BigCommerce and Salesforce wastes hours every week that could be spent on revenue-generating work

BigCommerce uses a REST + Webhook API while Salesforce uses REST, requiring careful middleware to translate data formats between the two platforms

Online orders in BigCommerce and in-store inventory in Salesforce are never in sync, frustrating customers

Production order data in BigCommerce and inventory levels in Salesforce are reconciled manually, risking stock-outs

How We Help

For Retail & E-commerce and Manufacturing businesses across Australia, the disconnect between BigCommerce and Salesforce is a daily frustration. Our custom integration bridges your e-commerce and crm & sales systems, ensuring orders and products flow seamlessly without manual intervention. On the technical side, BigCommerce uses a REST + Webhook API with OAuth authentication, and Salesforce authenticates via OAuth, which our team handles as part of the build.

Unified Customers Across Both Platforms

Customers in BigCommerce and leads in Salesforce stay perfectly aligned. Every update, whether it is a new phone number, email change, or company association, is reflected in both systems within seconds.

Scalable Without Extra Headcount

As your data volume grows, the integration scales with you. No need to hire additional admin staff to keep BigCommerce and Salesforce in sync, even as your business doubles.

Unlock Salesforce Value

Salesforce stands out because unmatched customisation depth - virtually every field, object, workflow, and page layout can be tailored to your exact business processes. Integrating it with BigCommerce means your team gets this benefit with complete, accurate data flowing in automatically.

Built-In Error Handling and Alerts

Our integrations include automatic retries, error queuing, and real-time notifications. If something fails between BigCommerce and Salesforce, your team knows immediately and the system self-recovers where possible.

BigCommerce to Salesforce Use Cases

1

Automated error handling and retry for BigCommerce/Salesforce sync

When a sync between BigCommerce and Salesforce fails due to a rate limit, network issue, or validation error, the integration retries automatically with exponential backoff. Your team is alerted only when intervention is genuinely needed.

2

Sync BigCommerce customers to Salesforce leads

When a customer is created or updated in BigCommerce, the corresponding lead record in Salesforce is automatically created or updated. Contact details, company associations, and custom fields are all mapped. Changes in either system flow back to the other.
