How we scored these headless commerce companies
Each company gets up to 100 points on seven facts anyone can check. We only count what we could open and read on a public page: the company's own site, Clutch, Google, G2, Trustpilot, DesignRush, GoodFirms and the BBB. A 0 means we could not find that fact, not that the company is bad at it. If a company publishes it, we add it at the next quarterly check.
| Criterion | Points | How it is scored |
|---|---|---|
| Client reviews | 25 | Up to 15 for the review-weighted average rating across Clutch, Google, G2, Trustpilot, DesignRush and GoodFirms where we could open a profile (4.0 = 0, 5.0 = 15). Up to 10 for review volume on a log scale (10 reviews = 3.3, 100 = 6.7, 1,000 or more = 10). |
| Track record | 15 | 1 point per year since the company was founded, up to 15. |
| Proof on this topic | 20 | 5 for a service page dedicated to this list's topic. 5 for each published case study on this topic that names the client and states a measured result, up to 3. |
| Price transparency | 10 | 10 for prices or packages published on the company's own site. 5 when only a directory shows a minimum project size or hourly rate. 0 if neither. |
| Independent recognition | 10 | Highest of: an industry award from an independent body since 2021 (10), a partner tier tied to the topic such as Google Premier Partner or Shopify Plus Partner (6), a directory or list award such as Clutch Leaders or Inc. 5000 (4). None = 0. |
| Who you work with | 10 | 5 for named leadership on the company's site, 5 for a published office address. |
| Complaint record | 10 | 10 for a BBB A+ rating with 0 complaints in 3 years. 8 for another A-range rating, or an A-range rating with no complaint count shown. 6 for an A-range rating with complaints on file. 5 if there is no BBB rating, which is normal for companies outside the US. 0 for a D or F rating. |

How to choose a headless commerce company
- Ask for case studies on your exact problem. A named client and a measured result on headless commerce tells you more than a list of services.
- Compare price before the first call. Companies that publish prices or minimums show where they start; ask the rest for a range in writing.
- Read reviews in volume. A 5.0 from 6 reviews says less than a 4.8 from 200. Read the low ones too.
- Check who does the work. Ask whether your account is handled in-house or passed to subcontractors, and who your day-to-day contact is.
- Agree on how results are measured. Settle the metrics, the reporting schedule and the notice period before you sign.
