BigCommerce Strengths, Domain Expertise, and Key Differentiators
Bigcommerce is an e-commerce platform for fast-growth businesses, enabling them to easily launch professional online stores in hours. Bigcommerce offers e-commerce applications that cover everything such as email newsletter tools (auto responders), creating coupons/promotion campaigns, unlimited product variations, shipping and tax configurations, secure payment gateway integrations, handling returns, store statistics reporting, social sharing, product wish list, and product reviews, etc.
This would also allow more merchants to take payments from customers outside their home countries, and let sellers set their own conversion rates.

For example, in Asia, mobile wallets like WeChat Pay and Alipay are popular, while bank transfers are more common among Europeans.
