Why teams connect Bigcommerce and QuickBooks

Turn every Bigcommerce order into clean revenue: QuickBooks 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. QuickBooks 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 Customers, Invoices, Payments, Bills in QuickBooks with Price Lists, Shipments, Products, Variants and SKUs 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 QuickBooks — 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 Reconcile payment-processor payouts against QuickBooks transactions.
  • 02 Sync invoices and payments between QuickBooks and the CRM so sales sees billing status on the account record.
  • 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

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 QuickBooks, so billing and reporting start without re-entry.

Where QuickBooks is the money system of record: payment status on the order

Paid, overdue, and refunded state from QuickBooks lands on the order or account in Bigcommerce, so the store and support see what has actually been collected.

What you can sync between Bigcommerce and QuickBooks

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 QuickBooks 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 Billing entities kept consistent with CRM accounts and subscription tools 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.
Price Lists V3 price lists and records driving customer-group and B2B pricing; pushed from an ERP so tiered prices stay current. Payments Received funds applied to invoices, synced for revenue reconciliation Price Lists is specific to Bigcommerce and Payments to QuickBooks — 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. Bills Payables written in from procurement systems for AP processing Shipments is specific to Bigcommerce and Bills to QuickBooks — 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. Vendors Supplier records aligned with purchasing and spend tools Products is specific to Bigcommerce and Vendors to QuickBooks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
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. Items Products and services referenced on invoice and bill lines Variants and SKUs is specific to Bigcommerce and Items to QuickBooks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Orders V2 Orders API header, line items, and shipping/billing addresses; read into an ERP or accounting system, with status written back. Accounts The chart of accounts, mirrored so external postings map to the right ledger lines Orders is specific to Bigcommerce and Accounts to QuickBooks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Bigcommerce and QuickBooks

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

QuickBooks Bigcommerce Sub-second propagation

DetectionQuickBooks pushes changes as they happen — webhook events backed by change data capture. Webhooks for entity change events, plus a Change Data Capture query operation for pull-based deltas.

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.
  • QuickBooks: Subject to per-realm API request limits.
