Why teams connect Affinity and Bigcommerce

Keep the customers and orders that Affinity and Bigcommerce share aligned in real time, so sales works from live purchase history and the store works from current account details.

Affinity holds the customer relationship: the contacts, accounts, and deals a go-to-market team works. Bigcommerce runs the buying side: who placed which order, what they bought, and where it ships. The two describe the same people and companies, and when they are connected only by exports, sales answers questions without recent orders in front of them while the store works from account details that changed weeks ago.

Stacksync links Persons, Organizations, Opportunities, Field Values in Affinity to Shipments, Products, Variants and SKUs, Orders in Bigcommerce with bi-directional, real-time sync. New customers, order activity, and corrected contact details move in whichever direction you configure, field by field, with conflicts resolved by rules you set. A record created or changed on either side shows up on the other within seconds, with no CSV exports and no nightly job.

The shared entity is the customer, matched on email or an external ID, so both systems agree on who the buyer is and the order history sits next to the relationship instead of in a separate tab.

Common use cases

  • 01 Mirror deal-flow lists into a warehouse or BI tool for pipeline and portfolio reporting.
  • 02 Push enrichment data computed elsewhere into Affinity field values on list entries.
  • 03 Sync Customers and customer groups two-way with a CRM so marketing and support see the same accounts and addresses as the storefront.
  • 04 Push Price Lists from an ERP into BigCommerce to drive customer-group and B2B pricing without manual catalog edits.

Common sync patterns

New buyers become CRM records

A customer created in Bigcommerce creates or updates the matching contact or account in Affinity, so first-time and repeat buyers land in the relationship system without a manual import.

Contact and address details stay consistent

An email, phone, or shipping and billing address corrected in either system updates the other, so the next order and the next outreach both use current information.

Where Affinity segments customers: status travels to the store record

Lifecycle stage, tier, or account owner set in Affinity syncs onto the customer record in Bigcommerce, so the buying side can act on how the relationship is classified.

What you can sync between Affinity and Bigcommerce

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

Variants and SKUs Per-variant pricing and inventory; synced to keep stock and SKU data aligned with an ERP or WMS at the option level. Reminders is specific to Affinity and Variants and SKUs to Bigcommerce — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Lists Pipelines (deal flow, fundraising, portfolio) that structure most Affinity data; syncs usually target a specific list.

Lists is specific to Affinity and Orders to Bigcommerce — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Affinity and Bigcommerce

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

Affinity Bigcommerce Sub-second propagation

DetectionAffinity notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhook subscriptions for record events, supplemented by polling.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Bigcommerce through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Bigcommerce Affinity Sub-second propagation

DetectionBigcommerce notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks push near-real-time events (store/order/*, store/product/*, store/customer/* and more).

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Affinity through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Affinity: Subject to the platform's published API rate limits.
  • Bigcommerce: OAuth quota refreshes every 30 seconds and varies by plan (about 20,000 requests/hour on Standard and Plus, 60,000 on Pro, higher on Enterprise); the X-Rate-Limit-Requests-Left header reports remaining calls.
