Getting Started: Installation

To add the Wix eCommerce platform’s functionality to a site, you need to install it as an app. However, unlike other Wix Apps, you can’t install the eCommerce platform independently. Instead, the Wix eCommerce app is added automatically as a dependency when installing a business solution app that relies on its functionalities, such as Wix Bookings, Wix Stores, or Wix Restaurants Orders.

The following articles explain how developers building different types of products should handle installation of the eCommerce app:

• Wix site creators & Velo developers: Add eCommerce functionality to your site.
• Wix Headless developers: Use Wix eCommerce from any platform.
• Wix App developers: Build a feature app that extends eCommerce functionality.
• Wix App developers: Build a new eCommerce business solution (vertical).
