Quick Summary
Shopify's B2B features were hidden behind Shopify Plus before, but are now available on all plans. While the free B2B features could work well for some merchants just starting out with wholesale, for operations that need rep ordering, quoting, unlimited pricing, and ERP integrations, SparkLayer adds the depth native tools do not cover without requiring a store rebuild. For simpler setups, Wholesale Gorilla and BSS B2B are worth considering.
Here are our top three picks:
| # | Tool | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | SparkLayer | Brands that need rep ordering, quoting, unlimited pricing, and ERP connections, without rebuilding their store or upgrading to Shopify Plus |
| 2 | Wholesale Gorilla | Straightforward pricing and access control at a predictable monthly cost |
| 3 | BSS B2B Wholesale Solution | Broad feature set for stores that want some B2B functionality at a lower entry cost |
The Best Wholesale Apps for Shopify
Most Shopify merchants start wholesale the same way: a spreadsheet, a password-protected page, and a prayer. That works for the first ten accounts.
After that, the cracks start to show and the costs start to add up. Shopify Wholesale apps are designed to fix this but only if you choose the right one. This guide covers 10 apps that solve genuinely different problems, with honest notes on what each one does well and where it falls short.

1. SparkLayer
SparkLayer adds a complete B2B operation on top of the store you already have, without requiring a separate storefront rebuild. Wholesale buyers log in to a branded portal with their own pricing, catalogue, and a checkout built for trade ordering. Reps, on the other hand, use the Sales Agent Portal to toggle between accounts, build carts, and complete orders on behalf of buyers.
This setup really sets SparkLayer apart from other tools on this list. It simplifies day to day operations, eliminates manual coordination, and helps brands like Gentec get things running in a fraction of the time.
