Скачать или смотреть Webhooks vs Polling: A Complete Comparison for SaaS Growth in 2025

When building modern eCommerce applications, keeping data in sync across systems is a constant challenge. Two of the most common methods developers use are webhooks and polling. Both approaches aim to deliver updates between applications, but they work in very different ways. Polling requires an app to check for changes at regular intervals, while webhooks push updates automatically as soon as an event occurs.

API2Cart supports webhooks and API polling, so you can choose the most suitable method for your business needs. It offers a unified API that connects your software to 60+ popular shopping platforms and marketplaces, including Shopify, Magento, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Wix, and others. Instead of developing separate integrations, SaaS vendors can use a single API to access and manage essential store data, such as products, orders, customers, shipments, and more. This unified approach makes integrations faster, more cost-efficient, and easier to scale.

In this video, we’ll break down how webhooks and polling work, compare their advantages and limitations, and help you decide which option best fits your application or eCommerce SaaS.
