What the hosted platform includes

Managed gateway infrastructure

Better Data runs Commerce Gateway on managed infrastructure with automatic updates, SSL, and uptime monitoring. No servers to manage, no deployments to coordinate.

Gateway Console

The operator UI for managing providers, connectors, keys, and registry status. Free tier available for self-hosted deployments. Fully managed on the hosted platform.

Commerce Registry

Your gateway is listed and verified in the public Commerce Registry at registry.betterdata.co. Domain verification and GTIN product-line claims are managed through the platform.

Brand portal

Merchant-facing configuration UI for brands connecting their commerce backends — Shopify, BigCommerce, WooCommerce, or custom API. Each brand gets isolated configuration and credentials.

Usage analytics

Full dashboard showing tool call volume, adapter usage, connector sync status, error rates, and latency by brand and time period.

Registry MCP

Your gateway is reachable via the Commerce Registry MCP at mcp.commercegateway.io — enabling LLM clients that support MCP to discover and connect to your gateway without manual configuration.

Enterprise features

  • Okta SSO and SCIM provisioning
  • Stripe billing integration
  • Multi-tenant brand isolation
  • Dedicated support and SLA agreement

Getting access

The hosted platform is in private beta for select brands and enterprise teams.

Open source commitment

The gateway protocol, tool schema, and self-hostable packages are Apache-2.0 and remain open source. The hosted platform is a commercial service built on top.

The same pattern as:

  • Nginx (OSS) vs Nginx Plus (commercial)
  • Kubernetes (OSS) vs GKE / EKS / AKS (hosted)
  • Commerce Gateway (OSS) vs Better Data hosted platform (commercial)
