Wholesale for Shopify

Sell to stockists from the store you already have

Retailers apply on your site, you approve them in your Shopify admin, and each one pays the rate you agreed with them at checkout. Retail customers carry on paying full price.

In review for the Shopify App Store. Free plan for up to 10 stockists.

How it works

Set up in an afternoon

No code and no new theme. Stocara adds a form block to your theme and a discount at checkout.

1

Add the form

One click opens your theme editor with the trade application form on a page. It picks up your fonts and colours.

2

Approve retailers

Applications land in your Shopify admin. Approve one and Stocara tags the customer and sends a welcome email in your branding.

3

They check out at trade price

Approved stockists log in and see their rate applied at checkout, with no discount codes to share or leak.

Trade pricing

Price every stockist the way you agreed

Your price list is rarely one flat discount. Stocara lets you set it as broad or as exact as you need.

  • A default rate for each tier of customers
  • Rates per collection or per product
  • A one-off rate for a single stockist
  • Products you never discount, excluded

Application form

A sign-up form that looks like your shop

Retailers apply from a page on your store, one question at a time. Ask for whatever you need to vet them.

  • Inherits your theme's fonts and colours
  • Your own questions, like VAT number or shop address
  • Spam protection built in

Order minimums

Every trade order worth packing

Set a minimum spend for each tier. Below it, checkout tells the stockist exactly how much more they need to add.

  • A different minimum per tier, with a shop-wide fallback
  • Write the message yourself, or use ours
  • Retail shoppers never see it

Bank transfer orders

Take trade orders without card fees

Stockists can send their basket to you instead of paying by card. It arrives as a Shopify draft order, and the invoice carries your bank details.

  • Basket becomes a Shopify draft order at trade rates
  • Your payment instructions on every invoice
  • Prices always come from Shopify, never the browser

FAQ

Questions merchants ask

Which Shopify plan do I need?

Any of them. Stocara runs on every Shopify plan, Basic included.

Will my retail customers see trade prices?

No. Rates apply only to customers you've approved, and only once they're logged in. Everyone else pays your normal prices.

Do I have to change my theme?

No. The form is a theme app block you add or remove in the theme editor. Stocara doesn't edit your theme files.

How do stockists pay?

By card at Shopify checkout like any customer, or by sending their basket to you as a draft order that you invoice for bank transfer.

What happens if I uninstall?

Shopify removes Stocara's checkout discount, checkout rules and payment settings from your store automatically. Our privacy policy explains what data we keep and when it's deleted.

Can I talk to someone first?

Yes. Email support@stocara.co.uk and you'll get a reply from the person who built it.
