When every account job lands on your reps

Most B2B stores bolt buyer self-service onto a retail theme. Accounts still call, email and PDF their way through routine tasks, and your team absorbs the admin.

01

Reordering means emailing a rep

Buyers can't see past orders or repeat them in a click, so every reorder becomes a manual quote and a back-and-forth.

02

Approvals happen off-platform

Purchase sign-offs live in inboxes and spreadsheets, so nothing is enforced and nothing is auditable.

03

Invoices get chased by phone

Finance teams can't self-serve statements or outstanding balances, so your team fields the same calls each month.

04

One login per company

Shared credentials mean no roles, no permissions and no visibility over who ordered what.

05

Account documents are scattered

Price lists, credit terms and compliance docs sit in email threads instead of the buyer's account.

06

Your reps are the system

Knowledge lives with individuals, so leave, churn or growth breaks the buying experience.

Is a company portal right for you?

A fit if

  • You sell to trade, wholesale or procurement accounts with repeat orders
  • Buyers have multiple users who need different permissions
  • You're on Shopify Plus, or ready to move for B2B
  • Reordering, approvals or invoices currently run over email
  • You want to cut account-management admin as you scale

Not a fit if

  • You're purely DTC with one buyer per order
  • You need a full ERP or bespoke procurement system rebuilt
  • You want a quick app install with no custom logic
  • Your catalogue and pricing aren't yet organised for B2B

How we build your portal

A staged build that puts a working portal in front of real buyers early.

01

Discovery & mapping (week 1)

We map your accounts, roles, approval rules and the systems the portal must talk to.

Portal architecture (week 1–2)

We model companies, locations and permissions in Shopify Plus B2B and agree the data flow.

03

Build & integrate (week 2–6)

We build portal pages, workflows and integrations, demoed in a shared staging store.

04

Buyer testing (week 5–7)

Selected accounts trial reordering, approvals and invoices while we refine.

05

QA & accessibility (week 6–8)

Full functional, permission and WCAG 2.1 AA testing across devices.

We migrate accounts, go live in stages and hand over documentation and training.

07

Post-launch support

A support window to tune workflows and onboard the rest of your accounts.

Quality and controls

Portals touch pricing, permissions and money, so we test them hard.

  • Permission testing for every role and edge case
  • Approval-threshold and routing verification
  • Invoice and balance accuracy checks against source
  • WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility audit
  • Performance tuned to a 90+ Lighthouse target
  • Staged rollout with a rollback plan
