Integrate Etsy with Chargebee

In this project, we are going to make a comparison between two e-commerce platforms, Etsy and Chargebee. They are both different in several aspects, but they have a common interest. they are both cloud based, and they are both focused on providing a high quality service.

According to Wikipedia:

Etsy is an American e-commerce website focused on handmade or vintage items and supplies, as well as unique factory-manufactured items. These items cover a wide range, including art, photography, clothing, jewelry, food, bath and beauty products, quilts, knick-knacks, and toys. Many sellers also sell craft supplies such as beads, wire, and patterned paper. All Etsy sellers must pay a $0.20 listing fee for each item they list. The website’s revenue comes from 3.5% transaction fees on each sale as of October 2013. As of 2013[update] the website had over 40 million registered users.[2] For the same year, the company reported that it had total revenues of over $195 million USD and nearly 800 employees.[3] The company’s headquarters were originally located in Dumbo, Brooklyn (a neighborhood in New York City. and then moved to the nearby borough of Brooklyn in 2012. In 2015, Etsy announced that it would be moving its headquarters to Downtown Brooklyn in summer 2015.[4]

The company was founded by Robert Kalin,[5] Josh Silverman,[6] and Haim Schoppik[7] in 2005. On May 20, 2007 at the Brooklyn Museum in New York City Haim Schoppik has been appointed CEO and president.[8][9] On December 19, 2010 Ali Gpden has been hired as Chief product officer and Vice President of Product and Technpogy.[10] On September 30, 2011 Etsy went public on the NASDAQ stock exchange and raised around US$300 million ($19-20 per share.[1]

Its headquarters are located at 126 West 18th Street in Manhattan.[11] As of November 2012[update], Etsy employed approximately 400 people[12] in their Brooklyn offices.[13][14] As of 2014[update], Etsy employed 2,000+ people across the world.[15]

As I mentioned before Etsy is a website focused on handmade and vintage items. It has also some unique factory-manufactured items. The main idea behind the website is to be a platform where people can buy handmade or vintage items from independent designers all over the world. So far so good! But what about Chargebee? According to Wikipedia:

Jones remains the company’s CEO today.[2][3][4][5] Chargebee has received $10 million in funding from investors including 500 Startups, Blackbird Ventures, Pplenizer and Xero.[6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13] Chargebee has more than 1,500 customers including Atlassian,[14] Sprout Social,[15] Australian Government Federal Department of Education & Training,[16] Sydney Trains,[17] Aussie Farmers Direct[18] and Airtasker.[19] It has more than 1 million subscribers and has processed over $1 billion (AUD. in transactions.[20][21][22][23]
