Why teams connect Bigcommerce and Folk CRM

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

Folk CRM 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 Notes, Reminders, People, Companies in Folk CRM to Categories, Brands, Inventory, Price Lists 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 Push enriched contact data from a data warehouse into folk custom fields.
  • 02 Mirror folk groups into a reporting database to track pipeline and outreach coverage.
  • 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

One customer identity across sales and store

A person who exists as a contact in Folk CRM and a buyer in Bigcommerce is kept as a single, deduplicated record, so both teams work from the same customer instead of two partial copies.

Where Bigcommerce records orders: purchase history on the account

Orders and their status from Bigcommerce appear on the matching contact or account in Folk CRM, so reps see what a customer has bought and what is in flight before the next conversation.

New buyers become CRM records

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

How changes propagate between Bigcommerce and Folk CRM

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 Folk CRM 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 Folk CRM through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Folk CRM Bigcommerce Sub-second propagation

DetectionFolk CRM notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhook subscriptions for record events, with polling of list endpoints as a fallback.

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.
  • Folk CRM: Subject to the platform's API rate limits.
