GraphQL-first headless commerce API for composable ecommerce

Saleor is an open source, headless ecommerce platform centered around a high-performance GraphQL API. It provides core commerce capabilities—catalog, checkout, payments, and order management—designed for composable architectures and custom storefronts.
Key Features
- GraphQL-native, API-only commerce backend
- Product catalog, variants, attributes, pricing, and inventory/warehouse management
- Checkout and order management with flexible order flows and returns support
- Promotion engine (discounts, vouchers, gift cards) and extensible payment integrations
- Multichannel support for currencies, pricing, and availability per channel
- Extensibility via webhooks, apps, metadata, and synchronous/asynchronous events
Use Cases
- Building a custom headless storefront (web or mobile) on top of a GraphQL commerce API
- Running multiregion/multicurrency stores with centralized catalog and operations
- Integrating ecommerce with external services (ERP, PIM, payment gateways) using webhooks
Saleor is a strong fit for teams that want a modern, API-first commerce core without being locked into a monolithic storefront or plugin system. Its GraphQL-first approach and extension model make it well-suited for composable commerce implementations.
