See every featureB2B merchants must attach a Purchase Order number to every order, but Shopify provides no native way to enforce this. Buyers skip the PO field or enter invalid data, causing fulfillment delays and ERP mismatches. PO Validator solves this with server-side validation via Shopify Functions. Buyers cannot complete checkout without a valid PO number.
Trade Account Checkout adds B2B and wholesale checkout fields to Shopify Plus. Customers enter a trade account number, PO number, VAT/tax ID, ABN, EIN, or buying-group reference at checkout - each with a label, helper text, and validation. Each value is saved to the Shopify order as a metafield and auto-tagged, so you can filter, export, invoice, and fulfill faster.
- Server-side checkout validation that buyers cannot skip or bypass
- Flexible rules: length limits, required prefix, and regex for ERP formats
- Character rules: whitelist allowed characters and block unwanted spaces
- Regex rules: validate PO formats against ERP and SAP number patterns
- Capture account number, PO, and business details at checkout.
- Show fields when business buyers opt in, or display them to everyone.
- Add multiple fields, each with your own label and required toggle.
- Validate any field with a custom regex pattern you control.
