Case Study: Scientific American achieves flexible, integrated content and subscription commerce with Ten24 Digital Solutions' Slatwall Commerce

Scientific American - Customer Case Study

Scientific American, the longest continuously published U.S. magazine, needed a more flexible way to manage and sell print and digital content — including access to its archive dating to 1845 with more than 170,000 articles. Their legacy systems could not handle Scientific American’s complex promotion, pricing, fulfillment and reporting needs, so they engaged Ten24 Digital Solutions to deliver a modern eCommerce and subscription platform using the Slatwall Commerce application.

Ten24 Digital Solutions implemented and customized Slatwall Commerce (integrated with CDS Global and Mura CMS) in a six‑month engagement, enabling subscription and account management, real‑time fulfillment, and the ability to sell individual issues, bundles or subscriptions. The result: real‑time paywall access across web, PDF and tablet, the full archive now available to subscribers, stronger customer support and marketing tools, and measurable outcomes including a six‑month deployment and support for over 170,000 archived articles with automated CDS fulfillment and multi‑subscription management.
