E-Com Benchmark Lab's editorial policy governs how platforms are selected, how sources are labeled, when scores may be published and how conflicts are disclosed.
A platform is added to the evidence set when it is established in ecommerce or materially differs in product approach. Inclusion is not an endorsement and no payment can purchase a favorable evidence status.
Every platform has 55 criterion records. The integrated commerce fit rating is calculated from cited-criterion coverage and disclosed publisher-selected weights. Product-quality criterion scores remain withheld.
This publication is produced by the creators of Simplestores and may use commercial links. That conflict is disclosed on relevant pages. Simplestores receives a publisher-weighted fit rating under the same formula as every platform; it does not receive an independent product-quality score.
Platforms evolve constantly. Evidence records are rechecked when first-party documentation or pricing changes, a cited source becomes unavailable, or the methodology changes.
