See every featureSparkLayer is a B2B and wholesale app with sales intelligence built in. Buyers order and reorder at their own prices and terms, from a visual catalog or a quick order form. SparkLayer Pulse shows which wholesale customers are due, slipping or waiting on a quote, and Sparkie recommends what to do next. Works for any Shopify brand on every Shopify plan. Syncs Shopify Companies, their locations and contacts.
Anyone can type a license number into a wholesale form. BuyerClear looks that number up in the register of the state that issued it and shows what it says beside what the buyer entered. Your staff approve or decline in Shopify admin, and access starts once Shopify confirms it. Automatic checks cover 203 license classes from nine authorities in Connecticut, Delaware, New York and Texas.
