The X.commerce Pledge

We believe that merchants should harness technology, not the other way around. Technology solutions should be future-proof and meet their needs, not enslave them with confusion and costs.

We believe that developers should have one place where they can plug in, get the latest and greatest tools they need to build killer apps and features, using proven code.

We believe in helping all merchants and developers compete, save time, share ideas, grow, and frankly just make more money—faster.

And we’re realists; we know we can’t do it alone. Things are changing constantly, new ideas and technologies crop up daily. The customer is in control. The notion of “build it and they will come” is dead. To win in the commerce game, we need to combine forces, roll up our sleeves, stay caffeinated, and shape the future of commerce.

We pledge to make this happen in an open, transparent, and collaborative way. After all, isn’t that the way it should be?

Join us. Opt in. Take a pledge to:

  • Actively participate in the X.commerce ecosystem by testing and building innovative commerce solutions;
  • Communicate regularly, thoughtfully, and honestly to the X.commerce community on what works, what inspires you, and what needs more (or less) attention;
  • Contribute to the ecosystem via ideas, technology, or solutions;
  • Think big, think about the customer. Think and ideate on a global and disruptive scale, while never losing sight of the needs of each customer.
