How ShopZero works
Most merchants only need the dashboard and their customer-facing shop. Here is how the pieces connect, and below you can go as deep as you like—API, storefront tech, and documentation links included.
The ShopZero Architecture
We separated the front-end from the back-end to give you ultimate flexibility and speed.
