Short answer

What is BigCommerce B2B Edition development?

Updated

BigCommerce B2B Edition development sets up a BigCommerce store for business buyers. Redefine Innovations builds these stores for manufacturers and distributors: company accounts, buyer roles, price lists for each customer, quotes, purchase orders, and sync with your ERP. We start with the native BigCommerce B2B features and add custom code only where your buyers need it.

A store for shoppers has one price and a card checkout. Business buyers need more. Each company has its own prices, people who can buy, people who approve, and its own way to pay.

So we map how your buyers order, price and pay first. Then we build what matters most.

Three ways to sell B2B on BigCommerce

Pick by how complex your buyers are

ChoiceBest whenWhat you getWhere it stops
Native B2B Edition onlyFew price lists and simple rolesAccounts, price lists and quotesOrders still get typed into the ERP

What your proposal covers

  • [1] How buyers order, price and pay
  • [2] Company accounts and buyer roles
  • [3] Price lists, quotes and purchase orders
  • [4] ERP sync and the order of work

Built for business buyers

Let business buyers manage orders and pricing on their terms.

A shopper store has one price. A B2B store gives each company its own prices, reorders and POs.

Where B2B orders get stuck today.

  • Order clerk retyping an emailed purchase order into the ERP by hand

    ERP integration

    Orders typed into the ERP by hand

    We sync orders, stock and prices both ways.

  • Buyer at a procurement desk with tax, shipping and CRM tools open in separate windows

    Integration services

    Buyer tools that do not connect

    Punchout, CRM and tax tools must reach your store.

  • Ecommerce manager comparing a wholesale site and a retail site on two monitors

    Multi-storefront

    Wholesale and retail sites to run

    Two sites mean double the work.

  • Designer sketching a custom buyer portal layout on a printed wireframe

    Development services

    A portal the theme cannot build

    We build the buyer screens you need.

  • Operations lead in a server closet looking at an old store admin on a laptop

    Migration services

    B2B orders stuck on an old platform

    We move accounts, prices and order history.

Four vendors become one team

Four vendors become one team

When four vendors each own one piece of a B2B store, handoffs slow down orders, prices and sync.

Before

An agency designs the buyer portal. An ERP partner syncs stock. A developer builds price lists. A marketer brings buyers. Nobody owns the result.

  • BigCommerce agency

    Own plan, own contact

  • ERP partner

    Own plan, own contact

  • Marketing agency

  • Developer

After

One Redefine team: developers, ERP engineers and marketers plan and ship your B2B store together.

One team

  • Buyer portal
  • ERP sync
  • Finding buyers

An engineering mindset for ecommerce growth

We run growth the way engineers run software.

Redefine Innovations is an engineering company that does marketing. Developers, ERP engineers and marketers work on one team, so a fix reaches the store's code, not just the ad account.

  1. Price list change card on a desk with a success number and a done when line

    01 Our way: How we work

    Every change is a test with a success number.

    Each task also has a "done when" line, so you know when it is finished.

    Old way: Instead of the usual agency habit

    Changes ship on opinion.

    Work counts as done when it is sent.

  2. Developer and ERP engineer checking that an order reached the ERP after checkout

    02 Our way: How we work

    Developers fix the store itself.

    Speed, checkout, tracking and ERP data get fixed in the code.

    Old way: Instead of the usual agency habit

    Fixes stop at the ad account.

    The store itself never changes.

  3. Sales manager reading a phone alert that online reorders dropped this week

    03 Our way: How we work

    Alerts fire the week a number drifts.

    Each alert comes with a planned response and one owner.

    Old way: Instead of the usual agency habit

    Problems wait for the monthly report.

    By then, reorders are already lost.

How Redefine works

TheREDEFINEMethod

How Redefine plans and builds your BigCommerce B2B store.

We map how business buyers order, price and pay, then build what matters first. A full custom buyer portal does not come before price lists and reorder work on native features.

Why this approach matters

  • Your B2B buying steps get simpler.
  • Your growth plan stays tied to the business.
  • Risk stays low because the work fits real needs.

  1. Start here

    Step 1: Diagnose

    We find where orders arrive by email and phone and get typed into the ERP, and every manual step around them.

    You receive A report of manual steps

  2. Choose what matters

    Step 2: Prioritize

    We rank the work. Account pricing and reorder on native features come before a full custom buyer portal.

    You receive A ranked action roadmap

  3. Do the work

    Step 3: Deliver

    We set up company accounts, buyer roles, price lists, quotes, purchase orders and net terms, and connect the ERP.

    You receive A working B2B store

  4. Check the result

    Step 4: Prove

    We check reorder rate and order accuracy. Each change has a success number and a done when line.

    You receive A reorder and error review

  5. Keep improving

    Step 5: Improve

    We watch the share of orders placed online and tune quick order and reorder lists.

    You receive A plan for the next changes

What you receive

Diagnostic and progress reports, a ranked action roadmap and ongoing technical support.

BigCommerce proof

Orders that no longer get typed by hand. Not a B2B Edition build.

Sleek Shop

BigCommerce orders and stock

Sleek Shop is a high-volume retailer on BigCommerce. It sells on its own store and many marketplaces, with dropship suppliers and its own stock.

The challenge

Each channel was run on its own. Orders, stock and supplier updates were done by hand, which cost money and slowed growth.

The solution

We joined every channel, supplier and stock count into one BigCommerce system. Orders now flow to suppliers on their own, and stock updates everywhere.

What we build in your B2B store

Pick a feature to see what it does for your buyers and your team.

Company accounts and buyer roles

Each company gets one account. Admins add buyers, set who can approve, and set spending limits.

  • Company admins
  • Buyer roles
  • Spend limits

Replaces: shared logins

Questions

BigCommerce B2B development questions

Clear answers before you ask for your proposal.

Do I need BigCommerce B2B Edition, and which plan?

It depends on your buyers. If you need company accounts, buyer roles, price lists, quotes or net terms, B2B Edition is usually the start.

Your proposal says which plan fits and why.

How long will my BigCommerce B2B project take?

It depends on your scope. The first phases set up price lists, buyer accounts and purchase orders.

Your proposal gives a phased timeline in writing.

What comes after my B2B store is built?

We can keep improving it: fixes, new B2B features, new links, and watching reorder and order error numbers.

Want ongoing help? See BigCommerce support and maintenance

Is custom code better than apps for B2B needs?

Apps are fine for simple jobs. Custom code fits exact needs, like price tiers by account or a complex ERP sync.

We start with native features and apps, and add code only where it pays off. See BigCommerce app development

How much does BigCommerce B2B development cost?

It depends on your scope: how many integrations, buyer roles and B2B features you need, like quick reorder.

You get a line by line proposal before any work starts.

Who works on my B2B store?

Developers, ERP engineers and marketers work as one Redefine team on price lists, the buyer portal and ERP sync.

One lead is your main contact from start to finish.

What is the REDEFINE Method?

The REDEFINE Method is Redefine Innovations' business-first framework for identifying business constraints, prioritizing improvements, delivering appropriate solutions, verifying outcomes, and sustaining improvements.

It has five stages: Diagnose, Prioritize, Deliver, Prove and Improve. Read the REDEFINE Method
