## Frequently asked questions

### What is Unified Commerce?

Unified Commerce means running every sales channel, DTC, B2B, point of sale, marketplaces, social, and AI agent channels, on one platform and one data layer: one catalog, one inventory truth, one customer record. Uncap builds Unified Commerce operations on Shopify with real-time ERP integration.

### What is the difference between Unified Commerce and omnichannel?

Omnichannel means selling on many channels. Unified Commerce means those channels run on one platform and one data layer instead of separate systems stitched together. Omnichannel adds channels; Unified Commerce removes the seams between them.

### Can B2B and B2C run on one Shopify store?

Yes. Shopify runs B2B and B2C on one platform natively: consumers see the retail storefront, wholesale accounts log in to their pricing, terms, and catalogs, and one inventory truth sits behind both. Commerce Build builds either a single blended store or a dedicated B2B expansion store on the same backend.

### Does the point of sale share inventory with the online store?

Yes. Shopify POS runs on the same catalog, inventory, and customer records as every other channel, so the counter, the showroom, and the website always agree, and buy-online-return-in-store just works.

### Can we sell on marketplaces and social platforms from Shopify?

Yes. Marketplace and social channels connect to the same Shopify catalog and inventory, and their orders flow into the same operation as every other order. One catalog maintained once, listed everywhere your buyers shop.

### How does the ERP fit into Unified Commerce?

It connects once. Uncap Connect syncs Shopify and the ERP in real time, two ways: orders from every channel flow in as one stream, and inventory, pricing, and fulfillment flow back out to every channel at once.

### Do customers get one record across channels?

Yes. The buyer who shops online, purchases in person, and orders through a B2B account is one customer record with one history, which is what makes retention, reorder prompts, and lifetime value measurable.

### Will our catalog work with AI shopping agents?

If it is structured well on Shopify, yes. AI agents need machine-readable products, pricing, and availability, which is exactly what a unified Shopify catalog provides. The unification work and the agent-readiness work are the same work.

### Where should a multi-channel operator start?

Planning the architecture, start with Uncap Blueprint. Ready to build, start with Commerce Build. Already on Shopify and adding channels, start with Managed Growth. If you are not sure which you are, that is what Talk to Our Experts is for.
