Hey --

Regarding the eCommerce integrations, Jason is right that early on we wanted to partner with a few companies where we felt like we could deeply integrate and provide a controlled/polished experience for consumers. There is no exclusivity agreement with ShipStation (though they're a great choice for many) and we're actively working on APIs that will allow larger merchants to integrate with our order/inventory systems more deeply.

Thanks for commenting. It's good to know that there are options for some merchants. A lot of small to medium size merchants use third party fulfillment services or want CRM functionality and it's just not practical for them currently. I hope the bar can be lowered at some point as we and our customers have hit a brick wall any time we've tried to pull order information out of Squarespace. We'd love to be able to do it though and help those merchants who need it and like the platform.
