Headless Commerce Development
Headless commerce enables you to deliver the very best experiences through the flexibility of a decoupled front-end. It also delivers the speed that both customers and Google expect. From there, you can reap more benefits, such as a truly omnichannel approach, improved flexibility for marketing teams, the personalization of customer experiences, improved integrations, and the ability to push conversion optimization strategies.
