can accurately model its domain, making feature development and maintenance
much easier.

  subscriptions, variant products (eg a T-shirt in different sizes and colours).

* Customisable products, such as T-shirts with personalised messages.

* Can be used for large catalogues - Oscar is used in production by sites with
  more than 20 million products.

* Multiple fulfillment partners for the same product.

* Range of merchandising blocks for promoting products throughuout your site.

* Sophisticated offers that support virtually any kind of offer you can think
  of - multibuys, bundles, buy X get 50% of Y etc

* Vouchers

* Comprehensive dashboard
