B2B ecommerce:
A B2B (business-to-business) ecommerce app enables you to sell large product volumes with high order values. As a result, you can remove dependency on your website, scale up user experiences and skyrocket conversion rates.
B2C ecommerce:
With a B2C (business-to-consumer) ecommerce app, you can create personalised experiences for users, keep them engaged with push notifications and enable offline access.
C2C ecommerce:

To reach your target users, you need to list your app on a mobile app store. Here’s how you can decide which one is best for you 👇
Google Play Store
Release your mobile app on the Google Play Store, the world's largest app distribution platform, and target Android users.
Apple App Store
Launch your iOS mobile app on the Apple App Store, the world's second largest app distribution platform, and target iPhone users.
Amazon App Store
By listing your app on the Amazon Appstore, you’ll reach a smaller total addressable market (TAM) than the Google Play Store. But you’ll get bigger financial incentives from the platform itself.

From obscene to lean: How ecommerce automation unlocks growth
Manual processes aren’t just annoying. They can crash and burn your business…
Ecommerce apps help people buy and sell online goods and services. They allow users to browse products, add them to a cart, checkout, and make payments through Android and iOS devices. Robust ecommerce apps also help you automate your returns and inventory management, while providing real-time sales data.
Building ecommerce apps from scratch involves mapping out features, designing the user interface and developing your app using a suitable programming language. You also need to test, iterate on and maintain your app. Alternatively, app builders and development teams can help, while Builder.ai provides a fully managed service.
The cost of building an ecommerce app varies on the size of your business, your app’s complexity and the platform you’re building on. At Builder.ai, pre-packaged apps start at around £150 per month for 24 months and you pay for custom apps per feature. Either way, you always get a fixed cost for your project.
Building fully functional and scalable ecommerce apps isn’t possible for free. But before committing to your project, you can get a free ecommerce app prototype, which simulates how your app will work. To learn more, check out Builder Now. 👈
Depending on the app development route you choose, maintenance may or may not be included. But investing in it is absolutely essential if you want to keep your software up to date and secure. Builder.ai’s app maintenance services 👈 take care of this, so you can focus on running your business.
With Builder.ai, you can host with reliable providers like Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure and Digital Ocean, meaning you get high uptime and secure data management. To learn more, check out Builder Cloud. 👈
Sadly, your ecommerce app build isn’t the end of the story when it comes to cost. You also need to consider how you host and maintain your app. But with Builder.ai, you can bundle everything in and keep costs down.
