Working with US based companies is nothing special these days.

We're native to Europe (seat in Berlin) providing support in 4 languages (English, German,

local payment providers, EU billing and local tax regulations.
Vanilo puts a lot of emphasis on Developer Experience.
Laravel developers will naturally feel at home, but the developing for the platform
is not PHP or Laravel specific.
The frontend is directly accessible and lets you create any layout with any CSS/framework.
REST API, Webhooks and a "Backend for Frontend" are available to support most of the
E-commerce setups.
You have highly skilled DevOps professionals taking care of your E-commerce site along with a Vanilo Cloud subscription.
You get a contemporary Telemetry system, that includes uptime monitoring, APM, unified logging, security monitoring, bug monitoring and alerting. We take care of most of the issues without your intervention, but in a transparent manner, so that glitches are recorded for you to be aware of them if needed.
Most mid-sized E-commerce businesses have very limited resources when it comes to cybersecurity. Having your site running on Vanilo Cloud lets you check quite a few items off the list like: Web Application Firewall, SSL certificates, Real-time Security Monitoring, and continuous patching of the underlying software components.
