Checkout & Transaction Speed

Fastly complements modern headless architectures by accelerating API traffic, caching dynamic content at the edge, and enabling faster communication between decoupled frontends and backends. This results in responsive user experiences, improved performance scores, and better SEO outcomes – all without sacrificing flexibility.

Global brands need consistent speed, regardless of location. With Fastly’s expansive edge network, businesses can serve localized content, handle multi-language storefronts, and optimize performance for users across continents – without setting up regional infrastructure. This minimizes latency, maximizes uptime, and keeps global operations lean.

With Fastly’s global edge network, businesses can deliver localized content and fast experiences worldwide – without the cost and complexity of additional infrastructure.

Major campaigns, promotions, or product launches often generate unpredictable traffic spikes. Fastly’s scalable architecture handles high loads without downtime or delays. It ensures that every user – no matter when they arrive – receives the same high-speed experience, helping preserve revenue and reputation during mission-critical moments.

Every second counts at checkout. Fastly reduces latency throughout the transaction funnel – from product detail views to payment processing. By serving assets closer to users and reducing backend dependencies, it shortens page load times and minimizes friction, leading to higher conversion rates and lower cart abandonment.

Launch days and seasonal peaks require infrastructure that can scale. Fastly handles surges without compromising speed or availability, ensuring consistent customer experience.
