What is Wix?

Wix is letting agencies describe an automation in chat and get a working endpoint back.

The captured window is half real releases, half page furniture — two entries are follow-button confirmations and one is a bare category label. The substantive items are WhatsApp order notifications for restaurants, scheduled drafts for Wix Groups, and custom actions that turn any Wix app event into an automation step.

What is SAP Commerce Cloud?

SAP is retiring its storefront UIs and rebuilding the surface as APIs.

The dated window is platform housekeeping from March — configurable JWT signing, token granter extensions, custom login redirect placeholders, a B2B customer search API. The undated rows carry a much larger June release: the Accelerator storefront UIs and AddOn-based OCC V2 extensions are deprecated in favour of headless commerce, the open payment framework gains gift cards, tokenization and split-payment extension points, and a run of OCC endpoints appears for wishlists, B2B units and access control.

Wix vs SAP Commerce Cloud: editorial side-by-side

Wix is letting agencies describe an automation in chat and get a working endpoint back.

◆ Current state

The captured window is half real releases, half page furniture — two entries are follow-button confirmations and one is a bare category label. The substantive items are WhatsApp order notifications for restaurants, scheduled drafts for Wix Groups, and custom actions that turn any Wix app event into an automation step.

◆ Where it's heading

The pattern is automation aimed at the agencies and partners who build on Wix rather than at end customers. Custom actions in particular make the automation platform extensible from a chat description, which shifts integration work from development to specification.

◆ Prediction

Expect the custom actions surface to widen across more Wix app events, though the feed's quality makes it hard to see the full release stream — several captured entries carry no product content at all.

SAP is retiring its storefront UIs and rebuilding the surface as APIs.

◆ Current state

The dated window is platform housekeeping from March — configurable JWT signing, token granter extensions, custom login redirect placeholders, a B2B customer search API. The undated rows carry a much larger June release: the Accelerator storefront UIs and AddOn-based OCC V2 extensions are deprecated in favour of headless commerce, the open payment framework gains gift cards, tokenization and split-payment extension points, and a run of OCC endpoints appears for wishlists, B2B units and access control.

◆ Where it's heading

Two threads run in parallel and they are the same thread. Legacy front-end layers are being deprecated, and the functionality they carried is reappearing as OCC APIs — which is how SAP decouples its upgrade cycle from every customer's storefront customisations. The payment framework work points the other way, toward commerce models the platform could not previously express, with split payments opening marketplace scenarios. Security and identity plumbing — PKCS12 keystores, audit log accuracy, endpoint-level access control — continues underneath at a steady rate.

◆ Prediction

Expect the deprecation list to keep growing on the same argument, with more accelerator functionality re-exposed through OCC ahead of a removal date; the split-payment extension points are the piece most likely to become a supported marketplace capability rather than partner plumbing.
