PrestaShop

PrestaShop Overview

PrestaShop is a leading open-source eCommerce platform powering more than 300,000 stores worldwide, with especially strong adoption across Europe. It provides a modular, customizable storefront with a built-in marketplace of thousands of add-ons for payments, shipping, marketing, and more. Merchants can manage products, orders, customers, and promotions from a centralized admin panel. Finix integrates with PrestaShop through the Cybersource payment gateway, enabling merchants to accept payments directly within their PrestaShop storefront and reconcile transaction data within their Finix Dashboard.
