What’s the Difference Between Multi-Store eCommerce and Multi-Tenant eCommerce?
Multi-Store eCommerce allows a single merchant (or admin) to operate and manage multiple storefronts under one backend. It’s ideal if you're running different brands or regional stores from one platform. All stores share the same database but may differ in branding, catalogs, or language.
Multi-Tenant eCommerce, on the other hand, enables entirely separate businesses or vendors to operate on the same platform with isolated environments. Think of it as creating independent instances for each vendor with custom dashboards, data, and user roles<perfect for SaaS-based marketplace models.
If you’re planning to build a scalable, SaaS-ready Headless eCommerce Platform with multi-tenancy, make sure it supports tenant isolation, role-based permissions, and API-level extensibility.
