What is the BigCommerce + Borderfree integration

Selling internationally sounds simple until the ops work shows up: customers abandon checkout when duties and taxes are unclear, support gets flooded with “where’s my order?” questions, and every country adds a new set of shipping and customs edge cases. The BigCommerce Borderfree integration connects your BigCommerce store with Borderfree’s cross-border commerce and logistics flow, so international shoppers get a localized checkout with duties, taxes, and landed cost handled in a consistent way, while orders route into a managed export process designed for customs and global delivery. This setup fits if you run (or plan) cross-border sales and need a BigCommerce international checkout integration that can keep up with multiple markets.

How the BigCommerce Borderfree integration works technically

• Catalog and pricing context from BigCommerce is shared with Borderfree for international storefront localization, including currency and country-level rules used at checkout. 

• At checkout, Borderfree returns duty, tax, shipping, and landed cost calculations based on ship-to destination, item attributes, and current trade rules. 

• The order payload is created in Borderfree with customer, line items, totals, and delivery terms, while BigCommerce remains the system of record for the original order. 

• Payments for cross-border transactions are processed through the Borderfree checkout flow, and the BigCommerce order is updated with status and key references for reconciliation. 

• Shipment creation and export documentation are generated in Borderfree, with customs data and carrier routing handled per destination requirements. 

• Fulfillment, tracking events, exceptions, and delivery confirmations are synchronized back to BigCommerce as order updates and shipment/tracking metadata, with failures logged for reprocessing.
