Multi Store vs Headless

Technical Q&A

Hello

If I’m considering migrating to Plus and have operations in several countries, do you advise having a multi-store reality with separate back offices or together? Is this the difference between multi-store and headless?

What are the advantages and disadvantages regarding price, apps, and technical complexity?

The idea is to have a centralized team managing all the countries, each with its own catalog, prices, language, and currency.

Many thanks.

Have you looked at Markets https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/international ?

Usually, you do not really need multiple stores unless there are non-technical reasons.

Headless is completely different thing – basically you do not use Shopify to show your webshop – you’d need a lot of development done for this instead of selecting and customizing your theme.
