Introduction

e-Commerce, Shopping Cart, Payment systems, Payment Gateway, Paid Downloads

J2Commerce is a flexible and modern e‑commerce solution for Joomla, designed to give site builders full control over their online stores. It offers clean product management, customizable layouts, multilingual support, and seamless integration with Joomla’s native features.


We are currently developing J2Commerce v6, a major new version rebuilt without the F0F library or jQuery and designed for full Joomla 6 compatibility. While this next‑generation release is being prepared, we continue to support existing users through the J2Commerce 4.x series.

Compatibility

  • 4.0.x supports Joomla 4 and 5
  • 4.1.x supports Joomla 5 and 6
  • The Backward Compatibility plugin must be enabled (all options) when running J2Commerce 4.x on Joomla 5 or 6

Why this matters

This approach ensures that users can upgrade Joomla without waiting for v6, while we complete the full architectural rebuild required for a stable, modern, future‑proof e‑commerce platform.
