"Request a Custom Quote" Cart Button

B2BKing enables your store to display a "Request custom quote" button on the cart page. This can be used alongside the normal cart and direct purchasing functionality.

For B2B stores and large, complex orders, this supplements the typical Add to Cart system, giving your customers the choice between purchasing outright and requesting a quote for a larger order.

Note: It is also possible to have a quote-only shop, as well as hide prices, or to enable quotes on specific products or categories only.

Button Display #

The design and display of the button will adapt to each theme.

Example: Storefront Theme

Request Quote Functionality #

Upon clicking the button, the user will see a customizable quote form.

Send custom quote request functionality

Once the user clicks "Send custom quote request," a new conversation will be opened, and the website admin can message the customer directly. The admin can also create a custom offer for the user through B2BKing's Offers feature — the customer will receive the offer and can choose to purchase it directly.

B2BKing 3.8.0 Update — New Features #

Version 3.8.0 of B2BKing brings some exciting improvements and enhancements to how quote requests work. The main features introduced are:

  • You can easily convert quote requests into offers/quotes.
  • You can easily email these offers to users, including guest users.
  • Users can download PDF files of your offers, complete with your company logo.

Quote Form Shortcode #

You can add the quote request form to any page by using the following shortcode:

[b2bking_quote_form]

This shortcode has an optional "type" parameter to control whether it appears as a clickable button that opens a quote form or directly as a form:

[b2bking_quote_form type=button]

[b2bking_quote_form type=form]
