Wix VELO & Wix Software Development Kit
Digital Edge have a world-leading custom development team of experts, specialising in Wix VELO and the brand new Wix Software Development Kit!
WE CAN IMPLEMENT CUSTOM STORES, THIRD PARTY API CONNECTIONS, MEMBERS AREAS, AI TOOLS, AND MORE!
If you have a business need you cannot meet within the standard Wix products, reach out, we will be sure to make your impossible, possible.
We consistently use the Wix back end tools and test sites to avoid any disruptions to your business, and you can still have the feature-rich back office of Wix while using our bespoke customisations built to your specific needs.
What is Wix VELO?
Wix Velo is Wix’s full-stack development platform that allows developers to build advanced web applications directly on the Wix infrastructure.
It combines an easy-to-use visual builder with powerful coding capabilities, enabling us to add custom functionality, create dynamic pages, connect external APIs, and work with databases directly. Because it’s fully integrated with Wix, Velo makes it possible to deliver highly customised, scalable solutions without managing separate hosting or backend services. This makes it ideal for businesses that need tailored features beyond the standard Wix Editor or Wix Studio.
What is the Wix Software Development Kit?
The Wix Software Development Kit (SDK) is the next generation of Wix’s developer tools, designed to be more modular and flexible than Velo, while also bringing Wix's tools in line with modern best practices.
The Wix SDK allows developers to create apps and custom solutions that can be installed across multiple Wix sites. It uses modern web technologies and APIs, making it easier to extend Wix’s native functionality, integrate third-party services, and maintain code over time.
Unlike Velo, which is tied to a single website’s code environment, SDK-based solutions are portable and can be updated centrally—making it the preferred choice for complex, long-term projects.
APIs
There's no one platform in the world that can do everything, fortunately though Wix understands this! That is why they provide developer tools that allow our Wix experts to integrate any 3rd party API into any Wix site! And there is an API for everything!
Over the years, just a few of the APIs we've integrated into Wix are:
PDF Monkey to generate custom PDFs
SendGrid to set up SMS/text notifications
Google Maps to display location information and allow location proximity searching
AUTOMATIONS
Automation is an incredibly important process today for any business. Automations allow your business to become more efficient, with only minimal costs.
This is why we provide any custom automation you could need, such as:
Emails confirming information
Making changes to large amounts of data regularly
Live messages with updates on your home page
BOOKING SYSTEMS
Wix Bookings provides a full booking system pre-built for you, but it has its limitations. We can use our expertise to extend Wix functionality, creating a custom booking process, or removing those limits that aren't quite enough for your needs.
Or perhaps Wix Bookings isn't right for your business? In that case, we can also provide a fully bespoke booking system built from scratch!
CALCULATORS
Calculators are versatile tools to use on your website, and we can build whatever calculator you need. Calculators provide a simple way to show complex processes to your customers, while also increasing site engagement! All you need to do is let us know what formulae the calculator needs, and our expert developers will code it for you!
CUSTOM WIX STORES
Wix Stores is a powerful e-commerce platform, but like any platform of its type, it doesn't cover every possibility. If you have a more niche Wix business, or perhaps just need a complex store set up, then we can help!
Our Wix Velo experts can use Wix Velo in the back-end to access all the functionality of Wix Stores, and build fully custom versions of any and every step of the e-commerce process, including:
A custom checkout process
Custom delivery calculators
Verifying purchases based on inputs
FILTERING AND SEARCH
When handling and displaying large amounts of data, it's important to make this easy to navigate, the last thing you want as a business is to frustrate your customers!
This is why we build custom filters and search bars. These are built bespoke for your business, so you're not including anything unnecessary but not missing any features your customers would expect, such as:
Custom ordering algorithm
Stores product search
Dynamic category filters
MEMBERS AREAS
There is no better way to increase user return rate than a members area, and this is exactly what the Wix Members Area provides! However, sometimes you need to collect certain information from users, or you want to give your users access to some custom functionality, that's where our Wix developers come in.
We can build a custom registration process, or build custom functionality and ensure security is set up so only certain users can access it!
WIX VELO/SDK API EXAMPLE
With custom code, we can connect your site to any external service that has an API available!
For example, want some images from Unsplash? You can use their random image generator right here!
Try clicking below to see it in action, or provide a search term to give the API some guidance!
