An online retailer is looking to create a customized eCommerce platform for selling their wide range of products. They utilize Bubble.io to build this platform, aiming to offer a user-friendly purchase process for their customers. The retailer also wants to ensure that every customer order is directly updated in their Ecwid store, where they manage all their inventories and orders for an efficient workflow process.
The online retailer utilizes Bubble.io's user-friendly interface to design an aesthetically pleasing and intuitive eCommerce platform. This platform includes all their products, showcasing each product's images and details, and an easy-to-use ordering system for customers.
The retailer installs the Ecwid plugin in Bubble.io and configures it with their Ecwid API credentials. The retailer then sets up specific actions and workflows in Bubble.io that are triggered when a customer places an order on their customized platform.
When a customer places an order, the Bubble.io workflows are triggered. The information of the order - such as purchased items, quantities, customer details, and shipping details - is automatically sent to Ecwid utilizing the Ecwid plugin action. From there, an order is created in Ecwid matching these details, and the inventory is appropriately updated.
The retailer now manages the entirety of the order fulfilment process through Ecwid. They track inventory, manage shipping, and handle other necessary tasks, as Ecwid updates in real-time with every order placed through the Bubble.io platform.
The integration allows seamless tracking of order sources, customer demographics, and product performance within Ecwid. The retailer can monitor the effectiveness of their eCommerce platform and make data-driven decisions to further optimize their business strategies.
Automating the order management process reduces manual errors and labor hours, providing a smooth order processing experience.
