Headless API-first commerce platform with native subscription billing
Updated
Swell is a headless, API-first commerce platform that separates the storefront from the backend commerce engine, giving developers full control over custom stores. It pairs flexible REST APIs with a visual block-based store builder and native subscription billing, and supports digital and physical goods in the same cart.
Swell is used by developers, agencies and brands building custom storefronts that need subscriptions, wholesale or mixed digital and physical products. The vendor says hundreds of companies use it, and it suits teams that want API control rather than a template-bound hosted store.
Swell does not display pricing plans on its landing page and refers visitors to a pricing page. Specific costs are not confirmed here, so check swell.is pricing for current plans before budgeting.
Alternatives to Swell include Shopify, commercetools and Medusa. Compare headless flexibility, subscription and wholesale support, currency and language coverage, developer experience and pricing.
