Price lists let one store charge wholesale buyers or regional markets different prices. Tax endpoints cover estimate, commit, adjust, and void for a quote. Customer endpoints keep records in step with a CRM, loyalty program, or support desk, and abandoned cart email APIs manage the templates for reminder emails. BigCommerce says it powers tens of thousands of stores and is listed as a paid platform. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it. Read it at the original source: ## Questions this post answers ### How can I charge wholesale customers different prices than retail customers in BigCommerce? BigCommerce supports price lists, a set of prices tied to a particular customer group such as wholesale buyers or a regional market. The Price List Management API provides GET /pricelists to list them, POST /pricelists to create one, PUT /pricelists/{price_list_id} to update one, and GET /pricelists/{price_list_id} to retrieve details, letting one store serve multiple price tiers. _Developers building multi-tier pricing can track e-commerce API patterns like this on daily.dev._ ### What API endpoints does BigCommerce provide for calculating sales tax on orders? BigCommerce's tax API includes POST /estimate to calculate tax on an order before it's final, POST /commit to finalize a tax quote once the order completes, POST /adjust to change a quote after something like a partial return, POST /void to cancel a quote, and GET /tax/rates to retrieve configured tax rates. _Teams wiring up checkout tax logic can follow e-commerce API coverage on daily.dev._ ### How do I automate abandoned cart recovery emails through the BigCommerce API? BigCommerce's Digital Marketing Management API lets you manage abandoned cart email templates programmatically: GET /marketing/abandoned-cart-emails lists existing templates, POST /marketing/abandoned-cart-emails creates one, and PUT /marketing/abandoned-cart-emails/{id} updates one. This is recommended as the first thing to automate since it recovers sales already sitting in the store. _Developers prioritizing e-commerce automation wins can follow API-driven approaches like this on daily.dev._ ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [Manage Products, Orders, And Coupons For Your Online Store With WooCommerce](https://daily.dev/posts/manage-products-orders-and-coupons-for-your-online-store-with-woocommerce-d1mcjq9ag) · API Evangelist · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Ecommerce Storefront Explained: Everything You Need to Know Before Starting Your Online Store](https://daily.dev/posts/ecommerce-storefront-explained-everything-you-need-to-know-before-starting-your-online-store-gtkjeszkg) · Netguru · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Scaling Personalized Marketing for Multi-Tenant Commerce Platforms](https://daily.dev/posts/scaling-personalized-marketing-for-multi-tenant-commerce-platforms-4xhccrrd9) · Instacart · 1 upvotes · 0 comments - [Full-stack capabilities to power app analytics](https://daily.dev/posts/full-stack-capabilities-to-power-app-analytics-97k5pylpt) · Shopify Developer changelog · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Why Legacy Commerce Platforms Are Failing Modern Marketplaces](https://daily.dev/posts/why-legacy-commerce-platforms-are-failing-modern-marketplaces-1wlfydlyl) · Netguru · 0 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#ecommerce](https://daily.dev/tags/ecommerce), [#rest-api](https://daily.dev/tags/rest-api) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/run-your-catalog-pricing-and-customers-in-software-with-bigcommerce-1av09j8bg) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"Run Your Catalog, Pricing, And Customers In Software With BigCommerce","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/run-your-catalog-pricing-and-customers-in-software-with-bigcommerce-1av09j8bg","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/run-your-catalog-pricing-and-customers-in-software-with-bigcommerce-1av09j8bg"},"datePublished":"2026-10-27T18:26:57.939Z","dateModified":"2026-10-27T18:33:16.285Z","description":"BigCommerce exposes APIs for running an online store's catalog, pricing, tax, customers, and marketing in code instead of through admin screens.
