Why teams connect Bigcommerce and Bill

Turn every Bigcommerce order into clean revenue: Bill and Bigcommerce keep customers, orders, and payment status aligned in real time, in both directions.

Bigcommerce runs the storefront — the catalog, the orders, and the buyers placing them. Bill records the money behind those orders — invoices, revenue, payments, and the ledger the business closes on. The overlap is every customer, order, and product both sides need to agree on, and when that overlap is bridged by CSV export or an overnight batch, finance reconciles against stale numbers while the store quotes prices or stock the books no longer recognize.

Stacksync syncs Invoices, Customers, Payments, Chart of Accounts in Bill with Customers, Categories, Brands, Inventory in Bigcommerce field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields — an order's totals from Bigcommerce, its paid-or-overdue state from Bill — and Stacksync keeps every copy consistent and resolves conflicts by the rules you set.

The result is one shared record of who bought what and whether it has been paid, so the storefront, support, and the finance team all read from the same current data instead of re-keying it between systems.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync Customers and Invoices from BILL AR into a CRM or ERP so sales and finance see billing and payment status on the account.
  • 02 Write Vendors created during ERP onboarding into BILL so new payees are ready to pay without manual re-entry.
  • 03 Two-way sync of Products and Variants between BigCommerce and a PIM or ERP so catalog content, SKUs, and pricing stay aligned across systems.
  • 04 Write Inventory levels from a WMS or ERP onto BigCommerce Variants and SKUs so storefront availability reflects warehouse on-hand counts.

Common sync patterns

Catalog and pricing stay aligned

Products, SKUs, and prices maintained on one side propagate to the other, so what the store sells and what the ledger books stay in step.

Refunds and credits reconcile

Refunds, cancellations, and credit notes raised in either system update the corresponding record in the other, keeping balances honest on both sides.

Where Bigcommerce originates orders: sales flow into the books

A new or updated order in Bigcommerce creates or updates the matching invoice or revenue record in Bill, so billing and reporting start without re-entry.

What you can sync between Bigcommerce and Bill

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.

Bigcommerce objects Bill objects How this pairing syncs
Customers V3 customer accounts, customer groups, and addresses; synced two-way with a CRM so storefront and GTM records match. Customers AR customer master records; mapped to customer/account records in a CRM or ERP so finance and sales share one view. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions. Custom fields on either side are included in the mapping.
Brands Catalog V3 brand records linked to products; kept aligned with a product master or PIM so brand names and pages stay consistent. Vendors Payee master records; synced two-way with vendor/supplier tables in an ERP or accounting system so new payees don't have to be re-keyed. Brands is specific to Bigcommerce and Vendors to Bill — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Inventory Product- or variant-level stock, plus multi-location counts via the V3 Inventory API; written from a WMS to reflect on-hand quantities. Invoices Accounts-receivable invoices sent to customers; created and read via /v3/invoices to keep billing status aligned with the ERP or CRM. Inventory is specific to Bigcommerce and Invoices to Bill — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Price Lists V3 price lists and records driving customer-group and B2B pricing; pushed from an ERP so tiered prices stay current. Payments Outgoing vendor payments and received customer payments; read for reconciliation and created to schedule bill pay. Price Lists is specific to Bigcommerce and Payments to Bill — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Shipments Order shipments with tracking numbers; created in BigCommerce from a 3PL or fulfillment system as packages ship. Chart of Accounts GL accounts used to code bills and invoices; typically mastered in the accounting system and written into BILL for consistent coding. Shipments is specific to Bigcommerce and Chart of Accounts to Bill — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Products Catalog V3 records with custom fields and images; mastered in a PIM or ERP and written to BigCommerce, or read out to a warehouse. Bank Accounts Funding and deposit accounts; read to reconcile payments and posted transactions against the ledger. Products is specific to Bigcommerce and Bank Accounts to Bill — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Bigcommerce and Bill

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.

Bigcommerce Bill 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 Bill through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Bill Bigcommerce Sub-second propagation

DetectionBill notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhook event subscriptions (POST /v3/subscriptions) for bills, vendors, payments, invoices, and bank accounts, with polling on.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • 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.
  • Bill: 20,000 requests per developer key per hour; login (POST /v3/login) capped at 200/hour; maximum 3 concurrent requests per developer key per organization. Spend & Expense API is a separate token at 60 calls/token/minute.
