The foundation for lower integration costs

If you already have an account, you can get started directly through your Shopware Admin in just a few steps.

1. Install the Nexus service in your Shopware Admin. Go to Settings → Services and activate the Shopware Nexus Event Ingestion Service.

2. Open the Nexus portal in your browser.

3. Review and accept the terms and conditions to complete your setup.

Once completed, your store is connected and ready to use Nexus!

Today, Shopware Nexus is primarily designed for developers and technical teams, so some technical knowledge may be helpful depending on your use case.

That said, we are continuously improving usability and expanding the interface to make Shopware Nexus more accessible for merchants and operational teams. Our goal is to enable businesses to manage and extend workflows independently, without relying heavily on developer support.

Flow Builder is part of the Shopware Administration and is designed for creating structured workflows within Shopware. It allows you to define step by step automations based on predefined triggers and conditions inside your commerce environment.

Shopware Nexus goes beyond internal Shopware workflows. It is built to orchestrate processes across systems, connecting Shopware with the broader technology landscape such as ERP, CRM, PIM, and other third party platforms.

While Flow Builder focuses on sequential automation within Shopware, Nexus is built on an event driven, AI powered architecture. It reacts in real time to events across connected systems, enabling dynamic, cross system orchestration rather than fixed step chains.

You don’t need to rely on external middleware, Shopware Nexus is reducing TCO for merchants, helping agencies deliver projects, faster, cheaper and more standardized. Agencies will need less time to integrate, monitor and debug data flows between systems and therefore spending less resources on a project.

Nexus helps you deliver projects faster by simplifying integrations and enabling reusable workflows across customers and use cases. Because workflows and connectors remain compatible across Shopware updates, teams spend less time on maintenance and ongoing technical work. This reduces project costs, improves efficiency, and creates more room to offer additional value-added services to customers. Nexus, and the data context of the system landscape it operates within, will allow you to recommend other systems that can help provide more value to your customers - for example, recommending complementary tools or making it easier to migrate from outdated proprietary systems, such as legacy PIM solutions.

Each shop you manage will receive a free monthly execution allowance based on its Shopware plan, with higher-tier plans including larger allowances. Once you exceed your monthly allowance, additional executions are charged in a block of 1,000 at €10 per block. Any additional usage is billed at the end of each month.

We will continue to support Plugins and Apps for integration and are fully committed to our store and ecosystem. Going forward, Shopware Nexus will become the preferred solution for connecting and synchronizing data between systems, which may reduce the need for standalone integration plugins over time. Plugins and apps however will still be needed for extending Shopware functionality, customizing storefront experiences, and modifying platform behavior. As a simple guideline:

• Use Shopware Nexus to connect and synchronize systems

• Use plugins or apps to customize and extend Shopware itself
