The guide
Platform integrations
Sellers keep asking whether they have to move their store to Tamm. They don't. Tamm is a factory and a warehouse in Saudi Arabia, not a place to sell, so your storefront stays exactly where it is, and so does everything you built around it: the domain, the payment gateway, the discount codes, the pixels, the VAT invoices you issue. One thing crosses over, and only at the moment your customer pays. The size, the colour, the artwork file and the delivery address travel from your store to a production line here, the item is printed on demand, packed and shipped under your brand, and the tracking number returns to the page it was bought from. That crossing is where the real work sits: what an order has to carry before it can be made, what gets configured once and then left alone, and what changes when the same catalogue is selling on more than one platform at the same time.
