B2B ecommerce apps let business buyers order online at their own negotiated prices, through your store, a standalone portal or a mobile app. On Shopify, B2Bridge and SparkLayer lead for pricing depth and buyer portals. For a separate wholesale portal with a rep app, B2B Wave is the quickest start.
Picking the wrong type costs months. A store add-on rarely ships an offline rep app, and a standalone portal adds a second system next to your retail store. This guide sorts eight apps by type, with prices checked on 13 October 2026.
What Is a B2B Ecommerce App?
A B2B ecommerce app is software that lets wholesale buyers browse your catalog, see their own prices and place orders online. It replaces the email, phone and spreadsheet orders most wholesale channels start with.
Business buyers expect rules that retail shoppers never see. Each account gets its own price list. Orders have minimum quantities. Approved buyers pay by invoice on net payment terms instead of at checkout. A B2B app applies those rules automatically, so your team doesn’t re-key orders by hand.
Apps differ most in where they live. Some install on the store you’re already running, such as Shopify or WooCommerce. Others are standalone ordering portals with their own login and web address. A third group is built for sales reps who take orders on a phone or tablet during store visits.
That’s narrower than replacing your whole store. Moving to a dedicated B2B ecommerce platform is a separate, bigger decision.
Types of B2B Ecommerce Apps
Where do your buyers place orders today? That answer narrows the field faster than any feature list.
| Type | How it works | Best for | Examples |
|---|---|---|---|
| Store add-on app | Installs on Shopify or WooCommerce and shows wholesale prices to approved buyers | Brands selling retail and wholesale from one store | B2Bridge, SparkLayer, BSS, Wholesale Suite |
| Standalone ordering portal | Runs a separate wholesale site with its own login and price lists | Wholesale-only suppliers and distributors | B2B Wave, OrderEase |
| Field sales and mobile ordering app | Gives reps an iOS or Android app for orders at visits and trade shows | Brands with an active field sales team | Pepperi, RepSpark |
Store add-ons keep one admin and one inventory count. That matters for hybrid brands, because a second system means syncing stock between two places. Standalone portals suit companies that don’t have a retail store to build on. Field sales apps solve a problem the others don’t. The order happens inside a buyer’s shop, sometimes with weak signal.
Many teams combine two types. A Shopify store running a B2B add-on can still take orders from a rep app through an integration.
B2B Ecommerce Apps Compared
The table lines up all eight apps on type, rep ordering and entry price. Prices come from vendor pricing pages and the Shopify App Store, checked on 13 October 2026.
| App | Type | Runs on | Rep or mobile ordering | Pricing from |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| B2Bridge | Store add-on | Shopify | Sales Rep Portal on Growth | $99/mo |
| SparkLayer | Store add-on | Shopify | Sales agents from $49 plan | Free, then $49/mo |
| BSS B2B Wholesale Pricing | Store add-on | Shopify | Not offered | Free, then $29/mo |
| Wholesale Suite | Store add-on | WooCommerce | Not offered | $598/yr bundle |
| B2B Wave | Standalone portal | Own site, Shopify integration | iOS and Android rep app | £270/mo |
| OrderEase | Portal and order hub | Own platform | Offline-ready rep app | $500/mo plus setup |
| Pepperi | Field sales and B2B commerce | Own platform | iOS and Android app included | $500/mo |
| RepSpark | Wholesale platform for brands | Own platform, Shopify integration | Mobile access for reps | Custom quote |
Two patterns stand out. Store add-ons start under $100 a month. Standalone and field sales platforms start between £270 and $500, or move to custom quotes. Rep ordering is the sharpest split, since two of the four add-ons don’t offer it at all.
The 8 Best B2B Ecommerce Apps
Each entry covers who the app fits, its standout features, one honest limitation and current pricing. The list follows the types above, starting with store add-ons. The Shopify B2B apps comparison goes deeper on that group with ten options.
B2Bridge for Shopify Brands Outgrowing Order and Catalog Caps
B2Bridge is a Shopify app with no cap on price lists, customer groups or B2B orders at any tier. Pricing, store lock, quoting and net terms run in one subscription.

- Unlimited price lists, customer groups and B2B orders
- Net terms with credit limits
- RFQ and quote-to-order with PDF export
- Sales Rep Portal with order-on-behalf
- Public API for NetSuite, Zoho and Odoo
Considerations: It’s Shopify only, and the review base of 27 is small next to older apps.
Pricing: Professional $99, Growth $199, Advanced $299, Enterprise custom, after a 14-day trial. Credit limits, RFQ and the rep portal start on Growth, the API on Advanced. Rated 5.0 from 27 reviews.
SparkLayer for Buyer Portals Within Monthly Order Caps
SparkLayer adds a self-service B2B portal and sales agent ordering to a Shopify store. Every paid plan includes unlimited B2B price lists.
Best for: Mid-market Shopify brands that want a polished buyer experience.
Standout features:
- Sales agent ordering on all paid plans
- Registration forms with approval workflows
- Quoting on the Pro plan
- Xero and QuickBooks Online connections
Considerations: Every plan caps monthly B2B orders, at 5 on Free and 50, 100 or 150 on paid plans. You’ll need the $299 tier for quoting and API access.
Pricing: Free, then Starter $49, Growth $149 and Pro $299, with a 14-day trial. Rated 4.9 from 388 reviews.
BSS B2B Wholesale Pricing for Wholesale Signups on a Budget
BSS B2B Wholesale Pricing handles wholesale pricing, registration forms and approval queues on Shopify. It has the largest review base in this list by a wide margin.
Best for: Shopify merchants recruiting new wholesale accounts who need an approval flow.
Standout features:
- Custom registration forms with auto-tagging
- VAT and tax exemption rules
- Net terms and order limits from $49
- API for ERP pricing sync on the $99 plan
Considerations: Quoting needs a second app, and there’s no sales rep tooling on any tier.

Wholesale Suite for WooCommerce Wholesale Stores
Wholesale Suite is a bundle of five WooCommerce plugins. It covers wholesale prices, lead capture, order forms, payments and quotes, and you’ll install only the pieces you need.
Best for: WooCommerce stores adding a wholesale channel next to retail.
Standout features:
- Role-based wholesale pricing and tiered discounts
- Registration and approval for new accounts
- One-page order form for bulk buying
- Net 30, 60 and 90 invoices through Stripe
Considerations: It’s WooCommerce only. Each plugin is separate, so setup spans five products.

B2B Wave for a Standalone Wholesale Portal
B2B Wave runs a separate wholesale ordering site with its own login, on your domain or a b2bwave.com address. Every plan includes unlimited orders, quotes and customers.

Standout features:
- Sales rep app for Android and iOS
- PDF catalogs and quote management
- QuickBooks Online, Xero and Shopify integrations
- API access for custom connections
Considerations: Entry plans cap price lists at 20 and users at 10. Your retail store stays on a separate system, so stock won’t sync until you set up the integration.
Pricing: £270 a month on Lite and Pro, with 50% off the first three months. The 14-day free trial doesn’t need a card.
OrderEase for Multichannel Order Capture
OrderEase pulls orders from a customer portal, sales reps, email and EDI into one hub. It then syncs them to your ERP or accounting system.

Standout features:
- Customer ordering portal
- Offline-ready sales rep app on mobile
- EDI and email order automation

RepSpark for Established Apparel and Lifestyle Brands
RepSpark is a wholesale ordering platform for brands, their reps and retailers. Its customer base centers on golf, swim, outdoor and footwear brands.
Best for: Established lifestyle brands selling through reps to specialty retailers.
Standout features:
- Digital catalogs, line sheets and custom assortments
- Live inventory for at-once and future orders
- ERP integration on Professional, plus a REST API
- Unlimited B2B buyer accounts
Considerations: RepSpark says it isn’t built for early-stage or DTC-only brands. Professional and Enterprise rollouts take 3 to 9 months.
Pricing: Custom quote. Accelerate covers 3 users with Shopify integration, and Professional covers 10 users with ERP.
Must-Have Features in a B2B Ecommerce App
Every app above handles wholesale pricing. The real differences show up in the details, so it’s worth checking each row against how you sell.
| Feature | Why it matters | What to check |
|---|---|---|
| Customer-specific price lists | Each account sees its negotiated prices after login | The cap on lists per plan |
| Net payment terms | Buyers pay by invoice after delivery | Credit limits and reminders |
| Quick order and reorder | Buyers add dozens of SKUs at once | CSV upload and saved carts |
| Quotes and RFQ | Large orders need negotiation first | Quote-to-order conversion |
| Rep ordering | Reps place orders for their accounts | Mobile app and offline mode |
| ERP or accounting sync | Prices, stock and orders stay aligned | Connector or API, and the plan it’s on |
Two gaps cause most regret after purchase. Caps on price lists or orders force an upgrade just as wholesale grows. Missing ERP integration means someone’s re-keying every order by hand. Ask about both on the demo call, and get the answer in writing.
How to Choose a B2B Ecommerce App
Which app actually fits you? Work through these four checks in order, because the first clear answer usually settles it.
- Start with where buyers order. If you’re running retail and wholesale from one Shopify or WooCommerce store, an add-on keeps one admin and one stock count.
- Count your price levels and monthly B2B orders for the next 12 months. Some apps cap orders or lists, and the cap you’ll hit next year matters more than today’s price.
- List the systems that must stay in sync. Confirm the connector or API for your ERP, and which plan unlocks it.
- Decide how reps sell. If your reps visit stores, they’ll need a mobile app, ideally with offline ordering.
On Shopify, check the native toolkit first. Shopify has included B2B on every paid plan since April 2026, with three active catalogs below Plus. The Shopify B2B features breakdown shows each limit by plan, so you’re only paying an app for the gaps.
Running B2B Ecommerce Inside Shopify with B2Bridge
Already selling on Shopify? You don’t need a second platform to add wholesale. B2Bridge runs inside your store, with no cap on price lists, customer groups or B2B orders at a flat monthly price. Retail and wholesale share one admin and one stock count, so there’s nothing to reconcile between systems. Your bill doesn’t change as wholesale grows.
Brooklyn Bicycle runs its dealer portal this way, with gated wholesale pages and a NetSuite sync.
- Unlimited price lists, customer groups and B2B orders from $99 a month
- Pricing, store lock, RFQ and net terms with credit limits in one app
- A Sales Rep Portal with order-on-behalf for assigned accounts
- A public API for NetSuite, Zoho and Odoo on Advanced
