Get Started With IndieCommerce™ 2.0

The onboarding application for new members interested in joining IndieCommerce is now open!!

 


We appreciate your interest in IndieCommerce as your bookstore’s e-commerce platform. This survey is intended to gather details that assist us in evaluating program eligibility, while simultaneously ensuring that our platform aligns with your store's specific operational needs.

At its base, IndieCommerce offers bookstores a fully functional e-commerce website that includes:

  • Access to a database containing over 14 million book titles.
  • An integrated content management system (CMS) designed for the creation of customized Pages, Events, Product Lists, Catalogs etc.
  • Functionality for customers to browse books and store inventory and place orders that can be shipped to the customer’s location or picked up at the store.

IndieCommerce is designed to complement physical brick-and-mortar storefronts. Consequently, IndieCommerce may not be an appropriate solution for online-only, pop-up and used bookstores.

IndieCommerce has 2 Tiers.

Tier 1 offers essential e-commerce functionalities at an affordable price, providing a simple yet effective online presence.

Tier 2 is a comprehensive e-commerce solution, equipped with robust inventory management, fulfillment options, shipping solutions, online marketing tools etc. tailored specifically for independent booksellers.

To view pricing and a breakdown of the features included in each of the two tiers, please click here.
