Built a e-commerce store with Cursor?
We'll make it production-ready.
E-commerce apps handle money and personal data — there's zero margin for error. AI tools build great-looking product pages and shopping carts, but the critical details — inventory management, payment security, order processing, and shipping calculations — need professional attention before you take real orders.
E-Commerce Store challenges in Cursor apps
Building a e-commerce store with Cursor is a great start — but these challenges need attention before launch.
Payment security and PCI compliance
You're handling credit card transactions. While Stripe and similar services handle PCI compliance on their end, your integration must not expose card data, must verify webhook signatures, and must handle failed payments gracefully.
Inventory management
What happens when two customers buy the last item simultaneously? AI tools don't implement inventory locking or race condition prevention. Overselling damages trust and creates costly fulfillment problems.
Order processing pipeline
Orders move through states: pending, confirmed, processing, shipped, delivered. Each transition triggers actions (emails, inventory updates, accounting entries). AI tools build the checkout but not the order lifecycle.
Shipping and tax calculation
Real shipping costs vary by weight, destination, and carrier. Sales tax varies by jurisdiction. These calculations need to be accurate and up-to-date — getting them wrong is either illegal (tax) or margin-killing (shipping).
Performance under load
Product launches and sales events spike traffic. Your site needs to handle 10x normal load without crashing. Image optimization, caching, and CDN configuration are essential for a fast shopping experience.
What we check in your Cursor e-commerce store
Common Cursor issues we fix
Beyond e-commerce store-specific issues, these are Cursor patterns we commonly fix.
Exposed API keys in client code
Cursor often places sensitive keys and secrets directly in client-side components or .env files without the NEXT_PUBLIC prefix distinction, making them accessible in the browser.
Missing input validation on API routes
Server actions and API routes generated by Cursor frequently accept user input without sanitization or schema validation, opening the door to injection attacks.
Unhandled async errors
Cursor wraps code in try/catch inconsistently. Failed API calls, database queries, and file operations often crash the app silently or show raw error messages to users.
Race conditions in state management
Multiple rapid state updates or concurrent API calls cause stale data, UI flickers, and inconsistent behavior — especially in forms and real-time features.

Frequently asked questions
Can I build a e-commerce store with Cursor?
Cursor is a great starting point for a e-commerce store. It handles the initial scaffolding well, but e-commerce store apps have specific requirements — payment security and pci compliance and inventory management — that need professional attention before launch.
What issues does Cursor leave in e-commerce store apps?
Common issues include: exposed api keys in client code, missing input validation on api routes, unhandled async errors. For a e-commerce store specifically, these issues are compounded by the need for payment security and pci compliance.
How do I make my Cursor e-commerce store production-ready?
Start with our code audit ($19) to get a clear picture of what needs fixing. For most Cursor-built e-commerce store apps, the critical path is: security review, then fixing core flow reliability, then deployment. We provide a fixed quote after the audit.
