What is Get WholesaleReady?

A complete B2B wholesale pricing solution for Shopify stores.

Get WholesaleReady is a Shopify embedded app that brings full wholesale (B2B) pricing to your store โ€” without needing a separate storefront, a Shopify Plus plan, or a complex setup. You define who gets wholesale pricing and the rules they must meet, and the app applies the right prices automatically at checkout.

๐Ÿท๏ธ

Wholesale price groups

Create Gold, Silver, and Bronze tiers, each with its own discount, minimums, and volume tiers.

๐Ÿ“‹

Wholesale applications

Customers apply through a storefront form. Approve or reject from your admin โ€” tagging is automatic.

๐Ÿข

Company profiles & teams

Group buyers under a company with roles like Owner and Designer, plus per-company approval workflows.

๐Ÿ’ณ

Net terms & store credit

Offer net payment terms, store credit, sales-rep assignment, and ERP integration for serious B2B operations.

๐Ÿ“Š

Volume / tiered pricing

Reward bigger orders with "buy more, save more" tier tables shown on the product page.

๐Ÿ›’

Automatic checkout pricing

Qualifying carts get the right price at checkout โ€” no discount code for the customer to enter.

In plain termsYou set the rules in the admin. Customers apply and get approved. Approved customers then automatically see and pay wholesale prices when their cart meets the minimums you set.
2

Installation & setup

Get from install to your first approved wholesale customer.

After installing from the Shopify App Store, a short onboarding walks you through the basics. Here's the recommended order.

  • Install the app Approve the requested permissions. The app opens inside your Shopify admin.
  • Enable the storefront blocks Turn on the app blocks in your theme so prices and tags appear. See Storefront blocks.
  • Create your first price group Set a name, discount, and customer tag under Price Groups.
  • Choose how customers join Add the registration form to a page, or tag existing customers directly.
  • Test with a sample customer Approve a test application, log in as that customer, and confirm wholesale prices appear.
Required firstThe storefront shows no wholesale pricing until the Wholesale Auto Tag app embed is enabled in your theme. This is the #1 reason "nothing happens" after install โ€” enable it before anything else.
3

Plans & billing

Four plans, billed through Shopify on your regular invoice.

Manage your subscription under Billing. Each plan unlocks more of the app; enforcement is server-side, so feature access updates the moment you change plans.

PlanPriceBest for
Free$0Trying the app and basic wholesale setup.
Starter$14 / moSmall stores starting out with wholesale.
Growth$49 / moGrowing B2B catalogs needing more features.
Enterprise$99 / moHigh-volume stores using the full feature set, including ERP and net terms.
Changing plansUpgrade or downgrade anytime from the Billing page. Higher-tier features (such as company profiles, net terms, and ERP) become available immediately on the plans that include them.

Dashboard

Your home screen inside the Shopify admin.

The dashboard is the first screen you see when opening the app. It gives you quick access to your price groups, pending applications, and settings, and serves as the jumping-off point to every feature in the left navigation. New stores see onboarding prompts here to guide first-time setup.

5

Price groups

The pricing tiers every wholesale customer belongs to.

A price group is a wholesale tier. Every approved customer belongs to one group, and that group decides their discount and the minimums they must meet. Manage them under Price Groups.

SettingMeaning
NameAn internal label (e.g. "Gold", "Distributors"). Customers don't see it.
Discount %Default percentage off retail for the group (e.g. 50 = 50% off).
Customer tagThe unique Shopify tag applied to members (e.g. wholesale_gold).
Min order amountMinimum dollar value per line item to qualify. 0 = no minimum.
Min order quantityMinimum units per line item to qualify. 0 = no minimum.
Pricing rulesOptional fixed prices and volume tiers (see next two sections).

You can edit a group's discount inline, or open the create/edit modal for full control. Each group can hold its own product pricing rules and volume tiers.

Minimums are per line itemIf a group requires 5 units, a customer buying 3 of Product A and 6 of Product B gets the wholesale price on Product B only โ€” Product A pays retail until they add more.
6

Volume / tiered pricing

Buy-more-save-more pricing within a group.

Volume pricing lets a single product get a bigger discount as the quantity climbs โ€” classic wholesale "break" pricing. You define quantity tiers, and the app applies the best one the customer qualifies for.

How tiers work

  • Each tier has a minimum quantity and a price or discount for reaching it.
  • As the customer increases quantity, they automatically move up to the better tier.
  • A tier table appears on the product badge so buyers can see the breaks (e.g. "5+ = 40% off, 10+ = 50% off").
  • The wholesale ticker can advertise the best available tier as "Up to X% off".
ExampleSet tiers of 5 units โ†’ 40% off, 10 units โ†’ 50% off. A buyer adding 12 units automatically gets the 50% tier; the product badge shows the full table so they know the next break.
7

Per-product pricing

Exact wholesale prices for specific products or variants.

When a flat group discount isn't enough, set a fixed wholesale price on a specific product or variant under Per-Product Pricing. A fixed price overrides the group's percentage discount.

ScenarioWhat the customer pays
Group discount only (50%)50% off retail on qualifying lines
Group discount + product rule ($30 fixed)$30 flat on that product (rule wins)
Variant-specific ruleFixed price on that variant; other variants use the group discount
Still subject to minimumsA per-product price only applies when the line also meets the group's minimum quantity and amount. A fixed price doesn't bypass the qualifying rules.
8

Minimum order rules

Set per group, enforced per line item.

  • Minimum quantity โ€” units of a single product required before that line earns the wholesale price.
  • Minimum amount โ€” the retail dollar value of a single line that must be reached to qualify.
  • An item must meet both minimums you've set to qualify. Set either to 0 to disable it.
What the customer seesWhen an item doesn't yet qualify, WholesaleReady shows a hint on the product page and cart โ€” for example, prompting the buyer to add a few more units to unlock the wholesale price. This naturally encourages larger orders.
9

Wholesale applications

Review and approve customers requesting wholesale access.

When a customer submits the registration form, it appears under Applications as pending. You decide what happens next.

  • Review the application See business name, email, and the requested group.
  • Approve or reject Approving assigns the customer to a price group; rejecting leaves them as a normal customer.
  • Automatic tagging On approval, the app adds the group's tag to the customer's Shopify profile and marks them as a wholesale member.
  • Discount activates The next time that customer is logged in and shopping, their wholesale prices appear automatically.
Already have wholesale customers?You don't have to wait for applications โ€” add a group's customer tag directly to an existing Shopify customer and they'll be treated as a member.
10

Company profiles

Group multiple buyers under one business, with roles and approval control.

Real B2B buying is rarely one person. Company profiles let you represent a whole business โ€” with several people buying under it, each with a defined role and permissions. Manage companies under Company Profiles.

Roles & access

Each member of a company is assigned a role that controls what they can do. Roles include, for example:

Owner Designer Buyer Member

The Owner has the most control (managing the team and approvals), while other roles can be limited โ€” for example, allowed to browse and build orders but not to check out until an order is approved.

Approval workflow

A company can have Require approval turned on. When enabled, orders placed by certain members are held as drafts until an authorized person at the company (or you) approves them. This mirrors how businesses run purchase approvals internally.

Why it mattersCompany profiles let a single business account have multiple logins with different permissions and a built-in approval step โ€” something normally reserved for Shopify Plus B2B.
11

Team management

Owners add, remove, and re-role the people inside a company.

Within a company profile, the Owner manages the team โ€” controlling who can buy and what they're allowed to do.

  • Add members Invite or add people to the company.
  • Remove members Revoke access when someone leaves the business.
  • Change roles Promote or restrict a member (e.g. from Member to Owner, or limit checkout rights).
Built securelyRoles and permissions are always re-verified on the server before any team change takes effect โ€” the app never simply trusts what a browser sends. This keeps a member from granting themselves extra access.
12

Net payment terms

Let trusted businesses buy now and pay later.

Net payment terms let approved companies place orders on terms โ€” such as Net 30 โ€” rather than paying immediately at checkout. This is standard practice in wholesale, where established buyers are invoiced and pay within an agreed window. Assign terms to the companies you trust, and they can order without upfront payment.

13

Store credit

Maintain a credit balance for wholesale accounts.

Store credit lets you hold a balance on a wholesale account that can be applied toward orders โ€” useful for refunds, returns, promotional credit, or pre-paid arrangements. The credit is tracked against the customer or company and applied during their purchases.

14

Sales reps & flow automation

Assign accounts to reps and automate routine actions.

Sales rep assignment

Assign wholesale accounts to specific sales representatives so each rep owns their book of business. This helps larger operations route relationships, follow-ups, and account management to the right person.

Flow automation

Flow automation connects WholesaleReady events (like a new application or an approval) to automated actions, so routine steps happen without manual effort โ€” for example, triggering notifications or downstream workflows when something changes.

15

ERP integration

Connect wholesale data to your back-office systems.

ERP integration lets wholesale order and account data flow to the systems that run your business โ€” inventory, accounting, or fulfillment platforms. This keeps your wholesale operation in sync with the tools your team already uses, instead of managing it in isolation.

Best forHigher-volume stores on the Enterprise plan that already run a back-office ERP and need wholesale data to stay consistent across systems.
16

Settings page

Where loyalty, the ticker, and storefront behavior are configured.

The Settings page is the control center for storefront-facing behavior that isn't tied to a single group. From here you manage:

Setting areaWhat you control
Loyalty discountA cart-wide reward for non-wholesale shoppers (see next section).
Wholesale tickerThe discount badges shown on product cards across the store.
Display behaviorHow and where wholesale prices and hints appear to customers.

Changes you save here take effect on the storefront on the customer's next page load.

17

Loyalty discount

A cart-wide reward for your regular (non-wholesale) customers.

The loyalty discount rewards non-wholesale shoppers with a cart-wide discount when they spend above a threshold. Configure it under Settings.

SettingMeaning
EnabledTurns the loyalty discount on or off.
Minimum spendThe cart total a customer must reach to earn it.
DiscountThe reward amount.
Typeflat for a fixed dollar amount, or percent for a percentage off the cart.
Who gets itLoyalty is for non-wholesale shoppers only. Wholesale-approved customers already get group pricing, so the loyalty teaser is hidden for them to prevent stacking.
18

Wholesale ticker

Discount badges on product cards across your store.

The ticker places a visual badge on product cards โ€” collections, search, the home page โ€” so wholesale customers can see at a glance that special pricing applies. Configure it under Settings.

SettingOptions
EnabledShow or hide the ticker.
Stylebadge (pill, corner), banner (bottom strip), price-tag (side tag), ribbon (rotated corner).
LabelThe text shown, e.g. "Wholesale Price".
ColorThe accent color of the badge (default green #1a6b45).
Only members see itThe ticker shows only to logged-in wholesale customers. Regular shoppers and visitors never see it, so your public storefront stays unchanged. With volume pricing, it can advertise the best break as "Up to X% off".
19

Save to list / drafts

A floating panel for buyers to build and reuse orders.

Wholesale buyers often reorder the same items. The Save to List / Drafts feature gives them a floating panel on the storefront to manage saved orders without checking out immediately.

From the panel, a buyer can:

  • Save products to a list for later.
  • Rename or delete saved lists.
  • Mark as ordered once a list has been purchased.
  • Add to cart straight from a saved list to reorder quickly.
Pairs with company approvalFor companies that require approval, saved drafts are a natural way for members to build orders that an Owner can review before they're placed.
20

Product scope

Control where wholesale widgets appear on the storefront.

Product scope controls which parts of your storefront the wholesale widgets touch, so pricing and badges appear exactly where you want โ€” and nowhere you don't.

Why it existsStorefront sections like "You may also like" or related-product carousels can accidentally pick up wholesale badges or buttons. Scoping keeps the wholesale display on the right product areas and prevents it from leaking into unrelated recommendation sections.

If you ever notice a wholesale badge or "Save to List" button showing up somewhere unexpected on a page, product scope is the setting that governs that placement.

21

Storefront blocks

The theme blocks that power the customer-facing experience.

WholesaleReady adds its storefront features through theme blocks you enable in the Shopify theme customizer (Online Store โ†’ Themes โ†’ Customize). Each has a specific home.

BlockWhere to add itWhat it does
Wholesale Auto TagSections โ†’ App embedsRequired. Tags wholesale customers on each visit and powers cart pricing. Turn on first.
Wholesale BadgeProduct page templateShows the wholesale price, volume tier table, and qualifying hints on the product page.
Wholesale TickerSections โ†’ App embedsAdds discount indicators on every product card.
Registration FormAny page templateThe application form customers use to request wholesale access.

Tip"App embeds" are global toggles at the bottom of the theme customizer's left panel. "Template" blocks are added inside a specific page using Add block.
22

Checkout flow

How discounts apply automatically โ€” no code for customers.

You don't need to do anything for discounts to apply at checkout. Here's what happens behind the scenes.

  • Customer shops Wholesale prices show on product pages and in the cart as they browse.
  • Each line is checked Every item is evaluated on its own quantity and total against the group's minimums (and volume tiers).
  • Cart is prepared for checkout When the customer checks out, the app confirms their wholesale status and current pricing rules.
  • Discounts apply automatically Shopify applies the correct wholesale prices at the payment step โ€” no discount code needed.
Why prices stay accurateQualifying is recalculated at checkout, so a customer can't get a wholesale price on an item that no longer meets the minimum (for example, after reducing quantity). Items that fail the rules simply pay retail.
23

FAQ & troubleshooting

Quick answers to the issues merchants hit most.

Wholesale prices aren't showing on my store

Almost always the Wholesale Auto Tag app embed is off. Open the theme customizer, scroll to App embeds, and enable it. Also confirm the customer is approved, logged in, and that their group has a discount above 0%.

A customer was approved but still sees retail prices

Approved customers are recognized on their next visit. Ask them to log out and back in, or refresh the page. Also check the cart actually meets the group's minimum quantity and amount โ€” items below the minimum correctly stay at retail.

Only some items in the cart got the wholesale price

Expected. Minimums are checked per line item, not per cart. An item only earns the wholesale price when its own quantity and line total meet the thresholds.

What's the difference between a price group and a company?

A price group defines pricing (discount, minimums, tiers). A company is a business with multiple buyers, roles, and an approval workflow. A company's buyers are still priced according to a group.

Do customers need to enter a discount code?

No. Wholesale pricing is applied automatically at checkout based on the customer's group and cart. There's no code to share or enter.

Can I set an exact price for one product instead of a percentage?

Yes โ€” use a per-product pricing rule. A fixed price overrides the group's percentage for that product or variant. The line still has to meet the group's minimums.

A wholesale badge is showing in "You may also like"

That's a product scope issue. Product scope controls which storefront areas the widgets touch โ€” adjust it so badges stay on the intended product areas and out of recommendation carousels.

Will regular customers be affected by wholesale pricing?

No. Wholesale pricing applies only to approved, tagged customers. Everyone else sees normal retail prices. The optional loyalty discount is the only feature aimed at non-wholesale shoppers.
