 - **24 entities** — Products (a product sells variants when it carries attributes; no type field), variations, categories, tags, attributes + values, reviews, orders (embedded line/shipping/tax/fee/coupon lines), order notes, refunds, coupons, customers, tax classes/rates, shipping zones/methods, payment gateways, store settings, webhooks + deliveries, carts, download permissions, email log.
-- **16 backend functions** — 9 admin (`commerce/admin-products`, `commerce/admin-orders`, `commerce/admin-refunds`, `commerce/admin-coupons`, `commerce/admin-customers`, `commerce/admin-reviews`, `commerce/admin-webhooks`, `commerce/admin-reports`, `commerce/admin-tools`), 4 storefront (`commerce/storefront-catalog`, `commerce/storefront-cart`, `commerce/storefront-checkout`, `commerce/storefront-account`), 2 payment (`commerce/payments`, `commerce/payment-webhook`), and an idempotent `commerce/seed-store`.

 - **Online card payments, implemented** — hosted payment page, payment links for unpaid orders, two idempotent confirmation paths (customer return + signed webhook) and refunds through the provider. Wired to **Stripe** out of the box behind a provider-neutral payment utility, so the store takes cards as soon as the connector is connected — no charge flow to write — and moving to another provider means implementing one adapter. See [`skills/commerce/references/online-payments.md`](./skills/commerce/references/online-payments.md).
 - **Shared commerce engine** (`base44/shared/commerce/`) — totals, tax, shipping, coupons, stock, order lifecycle, webhook dispatch (HMAC-signed), emails, payments utility + Stripe adapter, plus static country/currency/continent data.
 - **Admin UI** (`src/commerce/admin/`) — a React/Tailwind/shadcn admin with a familiar store back-office information architecture: dashboard, orders, products, coupons, customers, reports, and full settings including webhooks. Admin-role gated.
