TD to Launch Full Service eCommerce Platform for Canadian Small Businesses
Tuesday, September 17, 2024

Leading eCommerce platform, powered by BigCommerce, offers a one-stop webstore, ideal for small businesses looking to build and grow their online storefront

TORONTO, Sept. 9, 2024 /CNW/ - TD Bank Group (TD) is pleased to announce the launch of TD eCommerce Solutions, a turnkey, highly customizable eCommerce platform, that enables Canadian small businesses to quickly begin selling their products and services online and accept payments with ease. Offering a comprehensive set of flexible features including intuitive webstore design tools from leading open SaaS ecommerce platform BigCommerce, inventory and order management, and a full suite of payment solutions from TD, the TD eCommerce platform delivers a customizable and easy-to-use storefront, providing trusted solutions that scale without compromising performance.

According to forecasts*, eCommerce is poised to make up nearly 12 percent of total retail sales in Canada this year, and more than 80 percent of Canadians are digital buyers - up 20 percent in the past 5 years. By reducing barriers traditionally associated with setting up an online business, TD eCommerce Solutions makes it easy for companies to start, run and thrive in today's rapidly evolving retail marketplace.

"At TD, we recognize the vital role small businesses play in the Canadian economy, driving innovation, creating jobs and boosting communities," said Alec Morley, Senior Vice President, Canadian Small Business Banking at TD. "As a bank committed to supporting local businesses, we're proud to help our customers succeed by providing them with eCommerce tools and trusted solutions that support their growing businesses and help them reach new customers."

At launch, TD eCommerce Solutions, powered by BigCommerce, will be available to all TD Business Banking customers and new customers, offering a full suite of capabilities, including accounting features and Search Engine Optimization, fraud detection and multiple payment acceptance offerings as businesses grow and evolve. TD customers can take advantage of same-day deposit** and streamlined billing, allowing businesses to manage payments to multiple parties.

Additionally, TD eCommerce Solutions provides small business owners with a single onboarding experience and provider for all their webstore and payment acceptance needs, as well as full-service support through the TD Merchant Solutions contact centre plus technical support provided by BigCommerce.

"Offering online purchasing was once considered optional, but in this post-pandemic era, we know that purchase patterns have changed and that significant transactions are made online," says Morley. "Our customers want to have a presence in digital buying, and together with BigCommerce we will deliver."

"This collaboration combines the robust capabilities of TD business banking services with the cutting-edge technology of BigCommerce's ecommerce platform, creating a dynamic all-in-one commerce and banking solution," said Brent Bellm, CEO of BigCommerce. "This innovative unified offering opens the door to new revenue streams and growth opportunities for Canadian businesses of all sizes."
