Sitecore OrderCloud

Sitecore OrderCloud is a headless commerce platform for B2B, B2C, and B2X.

This integration allows business users to build personalized landing pages and storefronts by repurposing product content from your OrderCloud marketplace. It also enables developers to use their preferred front-end tools to build these applications.
