Catalog & attributes
Flexible product/variant models, attributes, relations, and read projections for PLP/PDP.
Availability APIs
Location‑aware inventory, reservations, and safety stock for consistent PDP/cart reads.
Market pricing & promotions
Price lists per market/currency with promotions and auditable overrides.
Omnichannel freshness
Delta‑aware jobs/webhooks for search and channel feeds without quota overruns.

Challenges & Solutions

DTC backends need international pricing, inventory freshness, channel compliance, and scalable variant modeling. Here’s how Geins solves them.

International pricing and rounding

Inconsistent FX and rounding erode trust and harm conversion across markets.

Market price lists with promotion governance

Maintain base lists per currency/market, apply promotions and overrides with precedence and audits; avoid runtime FX for checkout totals.

Capabilities

Expected Outcomes

  • Consistent totals
  • Auditable pricing changes
  • Higher conversion

Product data quality and channel image requirements

Channels enforce strict image/data standards; rejects and quotas slow launches.

Delta feeds with batching and retries

Use async jobs to batch/throttle per channel, push deltas via webhooks, and isolate failures with DLQ to keep feeds fresh without exceeding quotas.

Capabilities

Expected Outcomes

  • Fewer rejects
  • Faster channel freshness
  • Quota‑safe ops

Inventory freshness across locations

Stale availability causes oversells and cancellations under peak events.

Location inventory with reservations

Track stock per location with reservations, backorders, and safety stock; serve consistent availability for PDP/cart via dedicated endpoints.

Capabilities

Variant modeling at scale

Rigid or limited variant models cause duplication and slow operations.

Attributes, relations, and read projections
