More information about our offering

ESW Platform

The ESW Platform is a control layer that orchestrates global commerce operations through one coordinated operating model. It connects workflows across checkout, payments, fulfillment, delivery, returns, settlement, compliance, logistics, and service, with a consistent data view across operations. Security and financial, regulatory, and operational compliance controls are built into platform workflows. Standardized connectors and APIs integrate with existing ecommerce platforms, enterprise systems, and custom architectures without requiring replatforming. Its multi-region architecture is designed for high availability and low latency as brands expand across markets, channels, and partners.

Category: Ecommerce Platforms

  • Coordinate Global Commerce In One Model
    Central coordination aligns commerce operations across markets and workflows, reducing the need to manage disconnected systems separately.
  • See Performance Across Commerce Operations
    A shared view of operational performance helps teams make decisions using consistent data rather than reconciling reports from fragmented systems.
  • Expand Without Rebuilding Compliance Frameworks
    The platform incorporates compliance controls into its operating model, so brands can expand across markets without creating separate frameworks for each one.
  • Connect Existing Systems Without Replatforming
    Brands can connect existing ecommerce and enterprise architectures through standardized interfaces, gaining global commerce capability without replacing or rebuilding systems they already operate.
  • Protect Transactions, Data, And Automation
    Security policies are part of platform workflows, so protection is built into the operating model rather than added separately.
  • Maintain Performance Through Peak Demand
    Multi-region architecture is designed to support high availability and low latency as transaction demand rises during launches, campaigns, and seasonal peaks.
  • Add Capabilities Without Replacing Existing Systems
    Brands can extend their existing commerce architecture with new capabilities, markets, and partners without replatforming or dismantling systems already in use.

Global Checkout

ESW Global Checkout coordinates localization, payments, fraud prevention, and compliance within one international transaction model. It supports 200+ markets and more than 35 global, local, and alternative payment methods, including express checkout and buy now pay later. Brands can deploy through hosted, embedded, or composable implementations compatible with existing ecommerce platforms and custom environments. The checkout adapts currencies, languages, payment methods, and pricing to local markets, while providing transparent landed costs. ESW acts as Merchant of Record for transactions processed through Global Checkout, assuming responsibility for applicable tax, duties, foreign exchange, regulatory obligations, and fraud-related financial liability. Centralized settlement, reporting, and reconciliation provide a consistent view across markets and currencies.

  • Localize Every Checkout Across Markets
    Give shoppers an experience shaped for their market, with familiar currencies, languages, and payment options, while keeping the brand’s look and standards consistent.
  • Accept Trusted Payment Methods Worldwide
    Present shoppers with locally relevant payment options and route transactions through payment networks suited to each market to help improve approvals and reduce failed transactions.
  • Reduce Fraud Exposure And Chargebacks
    Manage fraud within the checkout rather than through a separate tool. ESW assumes fraud- and chargeback-related financial liability for covered transactions, reducing the retailer’s exposure.
  • Transfer Cross-Border Transaction Responsibilities
    Shift applicable tax, duty, foreign exchange, and regulatory responsibilities to ESW as Merchant of Record, reducing the need to manage these obligations separately in each market.
  • Show Shoppers The Full Cost Upfront
    Present duties, taxes, and other costs before purchase to give shoppers a clear total and help avoid unexpected charges at delivery.
  • Reach Shoppers In 200+ Markets
    Extend checkout coverage across more than 200 markets without building separate market-specific checkout infrastructure for each region.
  • Integrate Without Replatforming
    Choose a hosted, embedded, or composable implementation that fits existing ecommerce platforms and custom environments without dismantling or replacing current systems.
  • Centralize International Settlement And Reporting
    View settlement, reporting, and reconciliation across markets and currencies in one consistent model instead of coordinating fragmented providers, currencies, and timelines.
  • Sell And Redeem Gift Cards Globally
    Enable shoppers to buy and redeem gift cards across the markets served by Global Checkout.

Global Returns

Global Returns replaces fragmented return workflows with one coordinated model across international markets. It manages collection, processing, inspection, refund execution, and inventory recovery, with returns processed locally, refunds triggered automatically, and returned goods routed through structured disposition. The service operates across 30+ countries and uses more than 50 processing centers.

  • Coordinate Returns Across Markets
    Manage the full reverse-logistics lifecycle through a coordinated model, helping teams reduce the workload of managing separate portals, partners, and processes in each region.
  • Process Returns Locally
    Use local collection and processing across the network of more than 50 centers, keeping returns in-market where possible and reducing reverse-logistics cost and transit time.
  • Trigger Refunds Automatically
    Trigger refunds on receipt or approval of returned items, enabling faster shopper resolution and consistent processing across markets without manual refund workflows.
  • Recover Value From Returned Inventory
    Route returned goods through an appropriate disposition path, including restocking, rerouting, or liquidation, to speed inventory recovery and reduce value loss and write-offs.
  • Keep Return Updates On-Brand
    Give shoppers a branded place to initiate returns, track progress, and see refund status, avoiding generic carrier pages and helping reduce inbound queries about return status.
  • Verify Returned Item Condition
    Assess condition, authenticity, and resale readiness before returned goods re-enter the supply chain, helping protect against fraudulent returns and uphold inventory standards.
  • Use Returns Data To Guide Decisions
    Use return and recovery metrics to understand where costs are concentrated, which products drive returns, and where processing bottlenecks exist, supporting informed operational and product decisions.

Agentic Commerce

ESW Agentic Commerce extends the ESW Platform into AI-driven shopping environments. It helps brands make product catalogs discoverable to AI assistants and complete secure transactions within AI interfaces, while coordinating checkout, fulfillment, and post-purchase service through the same operating model used for global commerce. The solution includes governed AI agents and a central Agentic Hub, and works with existing commerce systems rather than requiring brands to replace their platforms.

  • Surface Products In AI Shopping
    Make product catalogs available to AI-driven discovery so shoppers can find, compare, and consider a brand’s products in the environments where they search.
  • Complete Purchases Within AI Interfaces
    Allow customers to move from an AI product recommendation to a completed purchase within the AI experience, rather than requiring a separate checkout journey.
  • Manage Agentic Commerce Centrally
    Give teams one environment to access agentic commerce resources and coordinate capabilities as they expand across workflows and AI touchpoints.
  • Govern And Monitor Agent Activity
    Keep automated workflows within defined policies, with visibility into agent activity and controls for oversight, monitoring, and escalation as automation expands.
  • Show Total Costs Across Markets
    Provide accurate landed-cost calculations across markets and coordinate the cross-border requirements that standalone AI tools may not handle, including duties, taxes, and Merchant of Record obligations.
  • Automate Core Commerce Workflows

  • Connect Agents To Existing Systems

    Help protect payment details during AI-assisted purchases while coordinating payment authorization, settlement, fraud protection, and compliance through ESW.
  • Connect Commerce To AI Platforms
    Make catalogs and commerce functionality accessible to AI shopping platforms and agents, with checkout endpoints supporting the transaction flow.

Methodology and sourcing behind the figures and links shown above.

Cross-border e-commerce

The provided search results contain no relevant market-size or growth data. Using general market knowledge, global cross-border e-commerce transaction value is estimated at approximately $1.2 trillion, with an estimated CAGR of 15.6%. This is a broad estimate of cross-border e-commerce, not solely the revenue of enabling platforms and services.

Omnichannel order management and fulfillment

Fact.MR provides the closest scope match: platforms coordinating fulfillment decisions and inventory availability across stores, warehouses, digital channels, and returns networks. It reports a 2025 market value of USD 5.9 billion and a 10.2% CAGR for 2026–2036. Estimates from narrower order-management-system markets are lower, so the Fact.MR estimate is used for this broader segment.

Customer experience outsourcing

Estimated global market size uses the reported 2024 customer experience BPO market value of USD 102.03 billion. The reported forecast CAGR is 12.8% for 2025–2033. This broad CX BPO category is the closest match to outsourced customer service and contact center operations described in the segment.

Digital marketing and performance advertising

Estimated from the reported global digital marketing market size of USD 410.66 billion in 2024 and forecast CAGR of 11.22% for 2025–2033. This is the closest match to the segment’s mix of SEO, paid media, social, content, and analytics services; broader advertising-spend estimates were not used as the primary measure.
