bCommerce's APIs provide an almost unlimited set of possibilities for interfacing the bCommerce platform with third-party software.
There are two ways you can make money building apps for bCommerce stores:
App developers can register for a reduced revenue share plan for apps sold through the bCommerce App Store. In this plan, bCommerce collects 15% revenue share on annual gross app revenue earned through the bCommerce App Store, reduced from 20%. Additionally, for developers who meet eligibility requirements, bCommerce collects 0% revenue share on the first $1,000,000 USD in annual gross app revenue earned through the bCommerce App Store.

Note
Effective January 1, 2024, developers who earn $20,000,000 USD or more through the bCommerce App Store annually, or who have a gross company revenue of $100,000,000 USD or more annually, are not eligible to pay 0% revenue share on their first $1,000,000 USD in annual gross app revenue.
