Founded in 2005, AmeriCommerce will serve as the foundation of Cart.com’s e-commerce-as-a-service (ECaaS) platform. Today, AmeriCommerce facilitates more than $500 million in gross merchandise value, providing end-to-end online store services for nearly 3,000 customers. AmeriCommerce was previously acquired by Capital One before being bought back by management. Over the next two months, Cart.com will expand AmeriCommerce’s capabilities by adding new complementary products and services for its customers.
“In today’s e-commerce landscape, merchants are constrained by complex and fragmented options, and large incumbent marketplaces that deliver great end-customer experience at the expense of entrepreneurs and small businesses. Cart.com will put power back in the hands of brands,” said Jim Jacobsen, Cart.com Chairman and co-founder.

Cart.com’s end-to-end integration enables brands to simplify their technology stack and refocus their efforts on their growth goals and mission. By bridging the gaps between systems that are currently isolated and disparate, the company is creating dollar and time efficiencies for brands and sellers.
“Cart.com’s mission is to strengthen the relationship between brands and their customers by providing a one-stop service that will build and manage their ecommerce presence at a time when selling online is more important than ever. AmeriCommerce helps us achieve that goal with its robust storefront experience, which is one of the only options for multi-store functionality,” Jacobsen added.
