# Multi-Store Capabilities

> Learn about the multi-store features available in Spree Commerce.

Spree Commerce Enterprise makes it simple to launch and manage multiple stores from a single backend and admin dashboard, while giving you full control over what’s shared and what’s isolated between them.

Whether you’re running regional storefronts, separate brand identities, or product-specific microsites, Spree’s multi-store architecture ensures operational efficiency, flexible configuration, and a unified customer experience, without the complexity of managing multiple platforms.

## Admin Capabilities

Spree gives store operators the flexibility to manage multiple storefronts from a single admin interface, while defining what should be shared and what remains isolated. Admins can:

* **Easy setup** - provision new stores instantly via the dashboard, each with its own custom domain and branding.
* **Cross-store sharing** - choose what to share between your stores.
* **Store-specific payment gateways** - support localized payment methods or region-specific accounts.
* **Per-store inventory visibility** - allow a product to appear in one store but not another.
* **Admin user permissions** - control access per store or across all stores.
* **Customize themes and pages per store** - allows design freedom within a unified architecture.
* **Store-specific integrations** - connect per-store third party tools like marketing or analytics.
* **Store-specific promotions** - configure promo’s for each store separately.

## Customer Experience

Shoppers can enjoy a seamless and localized experience even across multiple Spree storefronts. Highlights include:

* **Store-specific branding and layout** - maintaining clarity and identity for each regional or brand-based store.
* **Localized content and pricing by store** - including currency, tax logic, and shipping options.
* **Shared customer accounts** - allow shoppers to log in once and access their saved info across stores.
* **Saved payment methods** - users can reuse payment methods across stores, providing a frictionless checkout experience for returning customers.
* **Tailored promotions per store** - supporting unique marketing campaigns or regional offers.
* **Cart isolation** - carts and checkouts are kept separate per store

## Use Case-Specific Customizations

Depending on how the multi-store setup is used, businesses can apply different configurations and custom features:

* **Global vs. Regional Stores** - businesses can share a global product catalog and then localize only what’s needed (e.g., language, prices).
* **Brand Collections** - use multi-store to separate visually and operationally distinct brands while maintaining a shared backend.
* **Regulatory Isolation** - maintain strict separation of tax, privacy, and compliance settings across regions or countries.
* **Promotional Experimentation** - run different marketing strategies per store and compare performance centrally.
* **Content Flexibility** - use store-specific blog content, landing pages, and campaigns for better audience alignment.

## Flexible, Customizable Architecture

While many multi-store features are available out-of-the-box in Spree Enterprise, the open-source foundation means you can extend and tailor the platform to your exact business model - whether that means custom commission logic, ERP integrations, or unique checkout flows.

Spree Enterprise offers flexibility across all layers of the platform, from code-level customization to no-code configuration.

  * **Store Settings** - configure store name, logo, contact details, and supported languages/currencies.
  * **Custom Domains & Code Snippets** - set up domains and inject scripts (e.g., Google Tag Manager, Hotjar) without code.
  * **Shipping & Tax** - define shipping zones, rates, and tax rules per market.
* **Theme Editor (No-Code / Low-Code)**
  * **Drag-and-Drop Editor** - create and rearrange content using pre-built modules.
  * **Modular Pages** - build landing pages, homepages, and campaign sections.
  * **Brand Asset Management** - upload logos, banners, and product imagery without developer input.
