B2B Customer Portal

Provide a self-service customer portal with customer-specific pricing and inventory.

Personalized online buying experiences for every customer

What is a B2B Customer Portal?

Placing B2B orders is often a very manual and time-consuming process. It may involve exchanging multiple phone calls and emails or generating multiple quotes before finalizing the sale. This is often frustrating for customers and a drain on employee time and productivity. Incorporating a B2B Customer Portal into your eCommerce solution allows you to provide a personalized experience for every customer while automating the traditionally cumbersome process of placing B2B orders.

Every time they log in, customers will be able to see their full past order history, including offline purchases. They’ll also have access to their customer-specific pricing and inventory, making future orders and repeat ordering easy. 

How a B2B Customer Portal Works

B2B transactions are vital for many businesses, and yet they often rely heavily on inefficient manual processes. While B2C companies are increasingly migrated online with easy ordering experiences, for B2B companies the process has been more difficult. With B2C orders, the price and the products are the same for everyone, and people pay at the time of purchase.

B2B orders are different. Companies often negotiate custom pricing. Payment is also often made by invoicing and bank transfers after the completed sale. Before working with us, many of our clients had websites that functioned like virtual product catalogs and had no eCommerce functionality. Others had eCommerce websites that relied on manual order processing. Our E-Link tool allowed them to create fully customized and functional B2B Customer Portals tailored to every customer. These portals provided B2C-like ordering experiences with some additional features like customer-specific inventory and invoicing.
