Since its founding in 2012, Bold Commerce has evolved from an app development company to a key e-commerce player. Starting its journey with a mission to expand platform capabilities and deliver exceptional service, Bold Commerce initially focused on supporting brands as they sought growth via innovative technologies.
But as the e-commerce landscape shifted with the industry’s embrace of Composable Commerce, Bold Commerce saw an opportunity. This emergent model allowed brands to create a tech stack tailored to specific needs, a significant departure from the “one-size-fits-all” solutions prevalent in the market. Responding to this shift, Bold Commerce elevated its solution offerings, introducing the third generation of its checkout technology aimed at enabling brands to craft customized checkout experiences.
Dubbed the “Checkout Power Trio,” Bold’s latest innovation underscores the company’s commitment to maximizing customer profitability. Engineered with a composable architecture, Bold Checkout seamlessly integrates into any commerce system.
Today, Bold Commerce’s solutions are used by leading omnichannel retailers such as Vera Bradley, Harry Rosen and Staples Canada, among others, as well as numerous emerging direct-to-consumer brands.
