Case Study: Social Thinking achieves faster, scalable digital commerce with Commerce Layer

Social Thinking launches a faster commerce platform in 8 months with Commerce Layer

Social Thinking, a provider of educational resources for social development, faced significant challenges with its outdated Sitecore commerce platform. Their slow checkout, inefficient manual purchase order handling, and limited global capabilities were barriers to growth. They partnered with Commerce Layer to implement a modern, headless commerce solution that could address these specific issues and support advanced features.

Commerce Layer delivered a complete backend overhaul, implementing a stateless cart for sharing, streamlined purchase order workflows with document uploads, and robust third-party integrations for payments, taxes, and shipping. The results included significant performance gains with faster checkout and page load times, streamlined B2B operations for institutional customers, and a scalable, future-proof platform. Commerce Layer's flexible architecture provided the foundation for Social Thinking's continued global expansion and enhanced storytelling capabilities.
