Bigcommerce, PayPal team up for small-to-mid-sized retail payment

San Francisco – E-commerce platform Bigcommerce teamed up with Braintree and PayPal to offer an end-to-end ecommerce solution that makes it easier to launch and grow an online store. As part of the collaboration, Bigcommerce merchants will also get access to PayPal’s One Touch for web and mobile, enabling shoppers to pay across more than 90,000 online stores in a single touch, without needing to enter user IDs or passwords after their first login.

The newly released payment option will be made available to all Bigcommerce merchants in the U.S. in the coming weeks, with international rollout expected later this year.

The integration connects Bigcommerce’s ecommerce platform with a comprehensive suite of payment services and tools from PayPal, including support for digital wallet payments both online and on mobile, consolidated business management tools and automated fraud protections. Additionally, retailers using One Touch for Web and mobile will benefit from expedited transfers on sales through their online stores, a potential increase in conversions and average order values, as well as early access to all new payment methods supported by PayPal, across all devices, through a single integration.

Built on payment technology from Braintree, a PayPal company, the integration retailers merchants to adapt seamlessly to evolving payments trends, innovations and customer preferences without the need for additional integrations.
