Morphology

seamless = seam (semi-transparent) = seam + less

Used figuratively to mean 'without gaps or interruptions'; the compositional logic is metaphorical rather than strictly literal.

Etymology

Seamless is built from seam plus -less meaning 'without', and a seam is a join or line, so a helpful image is cloth joined so well you cannot see the join. That's why we call a plan, service, or presentation seamless when it has no gaps or interruptions and moves smoothly from one part to the next.
