ChatGPT answers, unedited
"recommend a store builder that handles registration approval, net 30 invoicing and sales rep commissions for B2B sales", asked on ChatGPT about once a day from the United States. The last 15 answers, newest first, exactly as given: the raw data behind the Ecommerce Platforms live demo.
Week of 24th to 30th Aug 2026 (in progress)
For your requirements, I’d look at B2B-first commerce platforms rather than a standard Shopify-style store builder.
My top picks
1. B2B Wave — best overall fit
- Customer/company registration and approval workflows
- Assign customers to specific sales reps
- Automatic sales-rep commission calculations, including customer-specific commission rates
- Customer-specific catalogs and pricing
- Internal approval processes for multi-buyer accounts www.b2bwave.com
- Strong fit if your business is wholesale/distribution and you want something relatively straightforward.
2. Pepperi — best for a larger sales organization
- B2B ecommerce storefront + sales-rep ordering in the same platform
- Reps can manage customer accounts and place orders on customers' behalf
- Buyer-specific catalogs/pricing
- Order workflows and approvals
- Invoice/AR information and payment terms are supported www.pepperi.com
- I'd favor this if your sales reps are an important part of the ordering process rather than merely an affiliate/commission layer.
3. Willow Commerce — promising if you want a simpler wholesale storefront
- Company accounts
- Customer-specific pricing
- Net 30/60/90 terms
- Purchase orders
- Quote management
- Its feature set explicitly includes tracking sales-rep commissions. willowcommerce.com
One important distinction
If by “registration approval” you mean:
Prospect fills out a wholesale application → your staff reviews it → approves the company → assigns pricing + Net 30 + credit limit + sales rep → customer can then order
then I'd put B2B Wave and Pepperi at the top of the list.
If you also need actual credit underwriting for Net 30 rather than simply assigning approved customers Net 30 terms, you may want to pair the storefront with something like Credit Key, which handles digital applications, credit decisions, Net 30 and collections. www.creditkey.com
What I'd choose
| Requirement | B2B Wave | Pepperi | Willow |
|---|---|---|---|
| B2B storefront | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ |
| Customer approval | ✅ | ✅/configurable | ✅/configurable |
| Net 30 | ✅/integration | ✅ | ✅ |
| Sales-rep assignment | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ |
| Automatic commissions | ✅ | Reporting/configuration | ✅ |
| Rep places orders for customer | ✅ | Excellent | ✅ |
| Best for | Wholesale SMB/mid-market | Larger sales teams/distributors | Simpler wholesale |
My first demo would be B2B Wave. It is unusually close to your exact combination of approved B2B accounts + rep assignment + automated commissions + wholesale pricing without requiring you to assemble a bunch of separate apps. www.b2bwave.com
If you tell me what you sell, roughly how many customers/reps you have, and what accounting/ERP you use (QuickBooks, NetSuite, Sage, etc.), I can narrow this to the best 2–3 options and identify which ones can handle the entire workflow natively.

Answer 2 of 15, 23rd Aug 2026, unknown, mentions 3 tracked brands
Yes. For your requirements, I’d focus on B2B-native commerce platforms, not a generic Shopify-style store builder.
My shortlist
| Platform | Customer registration/approval | Net 30 / invoicing | Sales-rep commissions | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| OroCommerce | Excellent — configurable workflows | Excellent | Strong sales/CRM capabilities, but commission calculation may need configuration/integration | Complex B2B |
| BigCommerce B2B Edition | Very good | Excellent | Needs app/integration for sophisticated commissions | Mid-market B2B |
| Pepperi | Excellent | Very good | Excellent for rep-driven selling | Manufacturers/distributors with field reps |
| Adobe Commerce | Excellent | Excellent | Good, usually customized | Large/complex organizations |
🥇 I'd start with OroCommerce
oroinc.com is probably the closest match if you want one system to model the actual B2B sales process, rather than just put a wholesale storefront on top of an ecommerce platform.
It has built-in B2B account management, workflows, customer-specific pricing, quotes, CRM, sales enablement, and buyer portals. Its workflow engine can be configured around things like new-account approval and order approval. ORO INC. Rigby
The important caveat is commissions: I'd verify exactly how you want commissions calculated before choosing it. If you need rules such as "rep gets 5% of collected revenue, except 2% on house accounts and 0% below margin X," you may want an ERP/CRM commission system integrated with Oro rather than relying solely on the storefront.
🥈 BigCommerce B2B Edition — best balance of simplicity + capability
bigcommerce.com is my recommendation if you want something less expensive/complex to implement than OroCommerce.
Its B2B Edition supports company accounts, buyer roles, approval workflows, quotes, invoices, and customer-specific payment terms including Net 30. BigCommerce's documentation specifically confirms that payment terms can be set per company and that a value of 30 represents Net 30. BigCommerce BigCommerce
The weakness is commissions. I'd expect to connect BigCommerce to your CRM/ERP or a commission application rather than treating commissions as a first-class native feature.
🥉 Pepperi — particularly interesting if reps are central
pepperi.com is worth serious consideration if your business is sales-rep driven—for example, distributors/manufacturers where reps visit accounts, take orders, and manage customers.
Pepperi combines B2B ecommerce with sales-rep order taking, customer/account management, approval workflows, multiple price lists, and an invoice/AR portal. B2B Commerce Platform | Pepperi B2B Commerce Platform | Pepperi
Its model is arguably a better fit than conventional ecommerce if your workflow is:
Rep → prospect registers → company gets approved → rep assigned → customer gets price list + Net 30 → orders → commission → invoice/AR.
One important distinction
I'd separate "Net 30" from "invoicing."
You want the platform to know:
Customer ABC is approved for Net 30, has a $50,000 credit limit, is assigned to Rep Jane, and gets Wholesale Price List A.
Then ideally your ERP/accounting system should be the authoritative source for:
- invoices
- accounts receivable
- payments
- outstanding balance
- credit exposure
- commissionable/collected revenue
For example, BigCommerce can store company credit/payment terms, but its documentation notes that its available-credit value doesn't automatically track open AR; an ERP can provide that deeper accounting/credit logic. BigCommerce
If you tell me your approximate size (e.g. 100 vs. 10,000 customers), what you're selling, and whether you already use QuickBooks, NetSuite, SAP, or another ERP, I can narrow this to 1–2 platforms and map the exact registration → approval → Net 30 → order → commission workflow.

Answer 3 of 15, 22nd Aug 2026, gpt-5-6, mentions 1 tracked brand
For your requirements, I’d shortlist BigCommerce B2B Edition, OroCommerce, and RepSpark. My first choice would depend on how important the sales-rep commission piece is.
| Platform | Customer approval | Net 30 / invoicing | Sales reps | Commission handling | Best fit |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| BigCommerce B2B Edition | ✅ Native | ✅ Net terms + invoice portal | ✅ Rep accounts/masquerade | ⚠️ Usually needs ERP/app/customization | General B2B ecommerce |
| OroCommerce | ✅ Highly configurable | ✅ Strong B2B invoicing/workflows | ✅ Very strong | ⚠️ Usually configure/integrate commission rules | Complex B2B sales organizations |
| RepSpark | ✅ Strong wholesale approval | ✅ Supports Net 30 customer terms | ⭐ Excellent | ⚠️ Verify exact commission calculation/reporting | Brands with lots of wholesale reps |
My recommendation: OroCommerce
If sales reps and complicated B2B rules are central to the business, I'd investigate OroCommerce first. It combines B2B ecommerce with CRM, quoting, invoicing, account hierarchies and configurable workflows. Its workflow engine can handle customized approval processes, which is useful for things like:
Wholesale application → internal approval → assign sales rep → assign credit limit/payment terms → Net 30 → rep receives commission when order/invoice is paid.
Oro also explicitly supports multiple payment terms and sales-rep-oriented CRM functionality. oroinc.com
If you want something easier to launch: BigCommerce
BigCommerce B2B Edition is probably the best balance of capability and implementation complexity. It has a native wholesale customer application/approval process, company accounts, buyer approval workflows, invoice management, and net-term payment support. www.bigcommerce.com
The catch is commissions: I would not choose BigCommerce assuming commissions are fully native. I'd plan on connecting it to your ERP/accounting system or a commission-management system.
If you're primarily wholesale + sales reps: RepSpark
RepSpark is particularly interesting if your business operates more like a wholesale brand with a field sales team than a traditional ecommerce company. It explicitly supports sales-rep ordering, retailer approval, customer codes and Net 30 terms. support.repspark.com
Its current invoice-payment functionality is more limited/ERP-dependent, though, so I'd specifically verify how it handles your AR workflow before selecting it. support.repspark.com
Bottom line:
- Most sophisticated B2B: OroCommerce
- Best general-purpose B2B store: BigCommerce B2B Edition
- Best sales-rep/wholesale experience: RepSpark
If you tell me what you're selling, approximate number of customers/reps, and what accounting/ERP you use (QuickBooks, NetSuite, Sage, Dynamics, etc.), I can narrow this to the best 1–2 options and map out exactly how approval → Net 30 → order → invoice → commission would work.

Answer 4 of 15, 21st Aug 2026, gpt-5-6, mentions 2 tracked brands
For the workflow you described, I’d shortlist OroCommerce and BigCommerce B2B Edition, with OroCommerce as my first choice if sales-rep commissions are a core requirement.
My recommendation
1. OroCommerce — best overall fit
It is built specifically around complex B2B rather than adapting a DTC store:
- Customer registration + approval: configurable workflows can automate onboarding and approval processes. oroinc.comoroinc.com
- Net 30: payment terms can be assigned to individual customers, including deferred terms such as 30 days. doc.oroinc.com
- Invoicing: customers can access invoices and make payments through the buyer portal. oroinc.comoroinc.com
- Sales reps: it has built-in CRM, sales workflows, rep tools, customer/account assignments, and reporting. oroinc.com
- Commissions: Oro specifically describes support for managing commissions as part of its B2B/B2B2X workflow capabilities. oroinc.com
- Complex B2B: customer-specific pricing, account hierarchies, quotes, approval workflows, ERP integrations, etc. are native strengths. oroinc.comoroinc.com
The tradeoff is that OroCommerce is a more serious B2B platform, so implementation is generally heavier than Shopify or a basic ecommerce builder.
2. BigCommerce B2B — best if you want a more conventional ecommerce platform
BigCommerce B2B Edition is particularly strong for your first three requirements:
- Registration approval: business-account applications can be held pending and manually approved before buyers can order or even see products/pricing. docs.bigcommerce.com
- Net 30: payment terms can be configured per company, including Net 30. docs.bigcommerce.com
- Invoicing: B2B Edition supports invoice generation and invoice payments. docs.bigcommerce.com
- Sales reps: reps can be assigned to specific company accounts and have scoped access to them. docs.bigcommerce.com
- Commissions: this is where I'd be more cautious. BigCommerce provides the rep/account infrastructure, but I would expect a commission system/integration rather than treating commissions as a first-class native B2B feature. BigCommerce has partnered with commission software such as InfoTrax for this purpose. investors.bigcommerce.com
3. Shopify Plus — good storefront, less ideal for your exact workflow
Shopify B2B on Shopify Plus is excellent if you want a polished ecommerce experience and potentially have both B2C and B2B.
It natively supports company accounts and Net 30/45/60/90, invoicing, payment terms, and B2B customer management. help.shopify.com
But sales-rep commission management is not one of Shopify's strongest native capabilities, so you'd likely be assembling Shopify B2B + a sales-rep/commission app + potentially an ERP/accounting system.
What I'd choose
| Requirement | OroCommerce | BigCommerce B2B | Shopify Plus |
|---|---|---|---|
| B2B registration | Excellent | Excellent | Good |
| Manual account approval | Excellent | Excellent | Good |
| Net 30 | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Customer invoicing | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Sales rep accounts | Excellent | Yes | Yes |
| Sales commissions | Best fit | Integration | App/integration |
| Complex B2B workflows | Excellent | Very good | Good |
| Ease of implementation | Moderate | Easier | Easier |
Bottom line: If your business is genuinely sales-rep-driven wholesale/distribution, I'd start with OroCommerce. If you want something easier to launch and don't mind adding a commission system, BigCommerce B2B Edition is probably the better value.
If you tell me what you sell, roughly how many B2B customers/reps you have, and whether you already use QuickBooks, NetSuite, SAP, or another accounting/ERP system, I can narrow this down to the best 2–3 options and explain exactly how I'd build the stack.

Answer 5 of 15, 20th Aug 2026, gpt-5-6, mentions 2 tracked brands
Yes. For your requirements, I’d look at B2B-native commerce platforms rather than a standard Shopify-style store builder.
My top pick: OroCommerce
OroCommerce is probably the closest fit if sales reps are an important part of your B2B sales process. It has:
- B2B customer/company accounts with account hierarchies
- Registration and approval workflows for new buyers
- Customer-specific catalogs and pricing
- Quotes/RFQs and sales-rep-assisted ordering
- Order and workflow approvals
- Customer portals with orders, invoices and account information
- Native CRM functionality and sales enablement
- ERP integrations
- Support for complex distributor/manufacturer workflows oroinc.com
The one thing I'd specifically verify during the demo is how you want commissions calculated and paid to reps. Oro gives you the sales/account infrastructure, but I wouldn't assume its standard configuration handles your exact commission plan without configuration or an integration.
Also worth considering: BigCommerce B2B Edition
BigCommerce is attractive if you want something somewhat easier to implement. Its B2B functionality includes company accounts, buyer approval workflows, invoices, credit management, purchase orders and account-level payment terms including Net 30. www.bigcommerce.com
For sales commissions, though, I'd expect an integration/app or custom development rather than treating it as a core native feature.
Interesting simpler option: Willow Commerce
Willow is specifically aimed at wholesale and advertises company accounts, Net 30/60/90 terms, invoicing, purchase orders, custom pricing and sales-rep commission tracking. willowcommerce.com
I'd investigate it if you're a smaller/mid-sized wholesale operation and don't need the enterprise depth of OroCommerce.
What I'd choose
| Requirement | OroCommerce | BigCommerce B2B | Willow |
|---|---|---|---|
| Buyer registration/approval | Excellent | Excellent | Yes |
| Net 30 | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Invoicing | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Customer-specific pricing | Excellent | Excellent | Yes |
| Sales rep workflow | Excellent | Good | Good |
| Commission tracking | Verify/configure | Likely integration | Advertised |
| ERP integration | Excellent | Excellent | More limited |
| Complexity | High | Medium | Lower |
| Best for | Distributors/manufacturers | Mid-market B2B | Wholesale |
If your sales reps actually earn commissions on orders placed through the portal, I'd lean toward OroCommerce or Willow rather than Shopify. Oro is the safer choice if you have complicated account structures, territories, price lists, ERP integration, quotes, and rep-assisted sales.
If you tell me (1) roughly how many products/SKUs, (2) whether you're a distributor/manufacturer/wholesaler, (3) what ERP/accounting system you use, and (4) how commissions are calculated, I can narrow this to 2–3 platforms and tell you exactly how I'd build the stack.

Answer 6 of 15, 19th Aug 2026, gpt-5-6, mentions 3 tracked brands
For your requirements, I’d put BigCommerce B2B Edition at the top of the list.
| Requirement | BigCommerce B2B Edition |
|---|---|
| B2B registration + approval | ✅ Native |
| Company accounts | ✅ |
| Net 30 / invoice terms | ✅ |
| Credit limits | ✅ |
| Sales reps | ✅ Sales-rep access/ordering |
| Sales rep commissions | ⚠️ Usually needs an integration/custom workflow |
| Customer-specific pricing | ✅ |
| PO purchasing | ✅ |
| Buyer approval workflows | ✅ |
| Quotes | ✅ |
| Invoice portal | ✅ |
BigCommerce specifically supports a wholesale customer approval process, where applicants can request B2B accounts and then receive things such as special pricing and an assigned sales rep. Its B2B Edition also supports invoice management and purchases on net terms. docs.bigcommerce.com
The one caveat: commissions
If by “sales rep commissions” you mean:
Rep John owns Acme Corp → Acme places a $10,000 order → John automatically gets 5% commission → commission is tracked/reported
I would not assume that is native. BigCommerce gives you the sales-rep/account relationship and rep ordering capabilities, but I would connect it to your CRM/ERP or a commission system for the actual commission calculation and payout.
Two alternatives worth considering
Shopify Plus is my second choice if you also have a substantial DTC business. Shopify B2B has company-account registration/approval, payment terms, and sales-rep permissions, and Shopify Flow can automate workflows such as notifying reps. www.shopify.com
OroCommerce is worth investigating if you're primarily a distributor/manufacturer and B2B is the entire business model. It is more B2B-centric than Shopify, but tends to involve a heavier implementation.
My ranking for your use case
- BigCommerce B2B Edition — best overall fit
- Shopify Plus + B2B apps/integrations — best if you need B2B + DTC
- OroCommerce — best for very complex B2B sales organizations
- WooCommerce + B2B extensions — best if cost and customization are more important than turnkey administration
One interesting option if you're already on Shopify is a B2B app such as WholesaleReady, which advertises registration/approval, Net 30, sales reps, and wholesale automation in one package. apps.shopify.com
If you tell me your approximate annual B2B sales, number of sales reps, ERP/accounting system (e.g. QuickBooks, NetSuite, Dynamics), and whether you also sell DTC, I can narrow this down to the 2–3 best platforms and show exactly how I'd implement registration → approval → Net 30 → rep commission.

Answer 7 of 15, 18th Aug 2026, gpt-5-6, mentions 1 tracked brand
For your requirements, I’d shortlist three, with SupplyGrid looking like the closest fit if you’re a distributor and want something relatively lightweight.
| Platform | Registration approval | Net 30 / invoicing | Sales-rep commissions | My take |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| SupplyGrid | Yes, approval-oriented B2B accounts | Yes — native | Yes — native | ⭐ Best match |
| B2Bridge + Shopify | Yes | Yes | Yes | Best if you want Shopify |
| Pepperi | Yes, via workflows | Yes | Rep management is excellent, but commission calculation may require integration/customization | Best for larger sales teams |
1. SupplyGrid — my first choice
SupplyGrid is specifically built around distributor operations rather than conventional DTC ecommerce. It explicitly supports Net 15/30/60/90 terms, AR/invoice aging, credit limits, customer approvals, sales-rep portals and commission tracking. Its Pro plan lists both the sales-rep portal and commission tracking. www.supplygrid.app
That's unusually close to your exact requirements.
I'd choose this if:
- You sell wholesale/distribution rather than primarily DTC.
- Customers need to apply for accounts and be approved.
- Approved customers get Net 30 credit.
- Reps own/are assigned accounts.
- You need commissions calculated/tracked from orders.
- You want accounting integration rather than building everything yourself.
2. B2Bridge + Shopify — best if you want Shopify
B2Bridge adds a B2B layer to Shopify with registration, buyer access, Net Terms, sales-rep accounts, and commission tracking. Its sales-rep portal specifically supports assigning accounts, setting rep rates, and tracking commissions on rep-assisted and self-service orders. b2bridge.io
This is particularly attractive if you already have Shopify or want the broader Shopify ecosystem.
3. Pepperi — strongest for complex B2B sales organizations
Pepperi is more of a full B2B commerce + sales-rep platform. It has account workflows, approval workflows, customer-specific pricing, an invoice/AR portal, sales-rep mobile ordering, account assignments and sales analytics. www.pepperi.com
For example, Pepperi's workflows can perform credit validation and approval when an account is created, while its invoice portal exposes invoices, AR aging and credit-line information. support.pepperi.com
The caveat is commissions: Pepperi clearly handles reps, territories/accounts, targets and sales reporting, but I would not assume its standard product calculates your actual commission payouts without confirming your specific commission rules.
What I'd recommend
If your workflow is essentially:
Company applies → you approve account → assign sales rep → give customer-specific pricing + Net 30 → customer orders online or rep orders for them → commission is automatically attributed to rep → invoice goes to AR
then SupplyGrid is the first one I'd demo. It appears to cover that workflow with the fewest pieces. www.supplygrid.app
If you tell me what you sell, roughly how many customers/reps you have, and whether you're already on Shopify, QuickBooks, NetSuite, or another ERP, I can narrow this to the best 1–2 options and compare pricing, implementation effort, commissions, customer approval, Net 30, and ERP integration.

Answer 8 of 15, 17th Aug 2026, gpt-5-6, mentions 1 tracked brand
For your specific requirements—B2B registration approval + Net 30 invoicing + sales-rep commissions—I’d look beyond a generic Shopify-style store builder.
My top picks
| Platform | Registration approval | Net 30 / invoicing | Sales reps & commissions | Best fit |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| OroCommerce | Excellent | Excellent | Strong | Complex B2B / distributor |
| Pepperi | Strong | Strong, typically ERP-connected | Excellent | Wholesale + field sales reps |
| WillowCommerce | Strong | Native | Yes | Smaller/mid-size wholesale |
| OrderDock | Strong | Native Net 30/60 | Sales-rep portal; commissions less comprehensive | Simple wholesale operation |
| Shopify B2B + apps | Needs customization/apps | Native Net 30 | Apps available | If you also want a strong DTC store |
1. OroCommerce — my choice for a sophisticated B2B operation.
Oro is built specifically around B2B rather than adapting a consumer storefront. It has configurable workflows for things such as customer/order approvals, company accounts, customer-specific pricing, invoices and ERP integration, plus CRM and sales functionality. oroinc.com
2. Pepperi — my choice if your reps are a major part of the business.
Pepperi combines a B2B ecommerce portal with a dedicated sales-rep mobile ordering system, customer/account information, sales analytics and backend integrations. That's particularly attractive if reps take orders in the field as well as customers ordering themselves. www.pepperi.com
3. WillowCommerce — worth a serious look for a smaller operation.
It explicitly advertises company accounts, customer-specific pricing, Net 30/60/90 terms, purchase orders and sales-rep commission tracking. That combination is unusually close to your requirements out of the box. willowcommerce.com
4. OrderDock — interesting if you want something simpler and inexpensive.
Its current offering includes buyer accounts, account-specific catalogs, native Net-30/60, PO management, sales-rep portals and order approval workflows, with plans starting at $99/month. I'd verify exactly how its commission calculations work before choosing it. orderdock.app
5. Shopify B2B — good if you need both B2B and consumer ecommerce.
Shopify supports Net 30 natively for B2B company locations. help.shopify.com Sales-rep commissions can be added through apps—for example, the CSS Sales Team app provides rep assignment, commission tracking and rep portals. apps.shopify.com The downside is that more of your B2B workflow becomes an app/customization project; Shopify doesn't have the depth of native approval workflows that OroCommerce does. www.rigbyjs.com
What I'd choose
If you're a manufacturer/distributor with an established sales team, I'd shortlist:
OroCommerce vs. Pepperi vs. WillowCommerce.
The deciding question is whether you need a full ecommerce/ERP/CRM platform (Oro), a sales-rep-centric wholesale platform (Pepperi), or a simpler all-in-one wholesale store (WillowCommerce).
If you tell me (1) what you sell, (2) roughly how many customers/reps you have, (3) what accounting/ERP you use—QuickBooks, NetSuite, Business Central, etc.—and (4) whether you also sell B2C, I can narrow this to the best 1–2 options and compare the actual costs and integrations.

Answer 9 of 15, 16th Aug 2026, gpt-5-6, mentions 1 tracked brand
For your requirements, I’d shortlist BigCommerce B2B Edition and OroCommerce, with OroCommerce being the strongest fit if sales-rep commissions are a first-class requirement.
My ranking
| Platform | Registration / approval | Net 30 + invoicing | Sales reps | Commissions | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| OroCommerce | Excellent | Excellent | Excellent | Strong / configurable | Complex B2B sales organizations |
| BigCommerce B2B Edition | Excellent | Excellent | Excellent | Usually app/custom integration | Easier implementation + strong ecommerce |
| WillowCommerce | Good | Excellent | Good | Yes | Smaller/mid-market wholesale |
| Pepperi | Excellent | Excellent | Excellent | More sales-management oriented | Distributors with field reps |
1. OroCommerce — my pick for your requirements.
Oro is built specifically around B2B rather than adapting a consumer store. It supports configurable approval workflows, account hierarchies, customer-specific pricing, invoicing, credit workflows, CRM, quoting, and sales-rep workflows. Its workflow engine can handle things like credit approval before an order proceeds. Oro also explicitly supports managing commissions in its B2B2X workflows. oroinc.com
2. BigCommerce B2B Edition — best if you want a more conventional ecommerce platform.
This is probably the option I'd investigate first if you want something easier to launch and maintain. It has a wholesale customer approval/application process, company accounts, buyer roles, sales-rep quoting, invoices, and net terms. BigCommerce specifically documents the ability for prospective wholesale customers to apply for a B2B account and be assigned a sales rep. docs.bigcommerce.com
It also supports sales reps placing orders on behalf of customers and account-specific net terms. www.bigcommerce.com
The catch: commission calculation isn't as native as the other B2B functionality, so I'd plan on an app, CRM/ERP integration, or custom automation for commissions.
3. WillowCommerce — interesting if you're a smaller wholesale operation.
Willow explicitly advertises company accounts, Net 30/60/90 terms, invoicing, purchase orders, and sales-rep commission tracking. willowcommerce.com I'd put it on the demo list, but I'd validate the customer-registration approval workflow carefully before committing.
4. Pepperi — particularly good if you have lots of outside/field sales reps.
Pepperi combines B2B ecommerce with mobile sales-rep ordering, account management, approval workflows, invoices, payment terms, and sales targets. It's particularly compelling for manufacturers/distributors where reps are actively taking orders in the field. www.pepperi.com
What I'd choose
If your workflow is roughly:
Business applies → you approve account → assign sales rep → buyer gets account-specific pricing → buyer orders → Net 30 invoice → commission automatically credited to rep
I'd start demos with:
OroCommerce → BigCommerce B2B → WillowCommerce
The key question I'd ask each vendor is: “Show me the complete workflow from new-company registration through approval, rep assignment, Net 30 invoice creation, payment/AR, and commission calculation—not individual features.”
That will quickly expose whether commissions are genuinely built in or require stitching together apps.

Answer 10 of 15, 15th Aug 2026, gpt-5-6, mentions 2 tracked brands
For your specific B2B workflow, I’d shortlist Willow Commerce first.
My top pick: Willow Commerce
It is unusually close to an all-in-one fit for what you described:
- B2B registration & approval — company accounts and controlled wholesale access.
- Net 30 invoicing — supports Net 30/60/90 terms and invoicing.
- Sales rep commissions — its B2B feature set specifically includes sales-rep commission tracking.
- Wholesale pricing — customer-specific pricing tiers and catalogs.
- Purchase orders — built around typical wholesale purchasing workflows.
- Quote management — useful when reps negotiate pricing before an order. willowcommerce.comapps.shopify.comwww.bigcommerce.com
That combination is important because many store builders handle two of the three well, but require apps/custom development for the third.
Another strong option: Shopify + B2B apps
If you want the ecosystem and flexibility of Shopify, you can build this with Shopify B2B plus specialized apps. For example, RepHQ provides rep/customer onboarding, orders, payment terms, approvals, and commission tracking, while Shopify handles the underlying store. apps.shopify.com
The downside is that you're assembling a stack of components, rather than getting everything from one B2B platform.
Also worth considering: BigCommerce B2B
BigCommerce has strong native B2B capabilities including company accounts, account-specific payment options such as net terms, purchase orders, buyer permissions, and invoicing. www.bigcommerce.com
I'd put it behind Willow for your requirements because sales-rep commission management isn't as clearly native, meaning you'd likely add another system/app.
My ranking
| Platform | Customer approval | Net 30 | Rep commissions | Overall fit |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Willow Commerce | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | Best match |
| Shopify + apps | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | Best ecosystem |
| BigCommerce B2B | ✅ | ✅ | ⚠️ Add-on likely | Strong platform |
| OrderDock | ✅ | ✅ | ⚠️ Rep portal, but commissions unclear | Good for simpler wholesale |
OrderDock is particularly interesting if you mainly need a dealer/wholesale ordering portal rather than a sophisticated sales-rep commission system. Its Scale plan includes a sales rep portal and order approval workflows, while Net 30/60 is native. orderdock.app
If you tell me roughly how you sell (e.g. manufacturers → distributors, wholesalers → retailers, B2B services, etc.), number of reps, and whether you already use QuickBooks, NetSuite, or another accounting system, I can narrow this down to the best 2–3 and compare pricing/integrations.

Answer 11 of 15, 15th Aug 2026, gpt-5-6, mentions 2 tracked brands
For your requirements, I’d shortlist three approaches, with BigCommerce B2B Edition as my overall recommendation.
| Platform | Customer registration approval | Net 30 / invoicing | Sales rep commissions | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BigCommerce B2B Edition | ✅ Native | ✅ Native | ⚠️ Usually app/integration | Best overall B2B storefront |
| Shopify Plus + sales-rep app | ✅ Strong B2B accounts/approval | ✅ B2B payment terms, with setup/integration | ✅ Excellent with apps | Best if commissions are critical |
| Pepperi | ✅ B2B workflows | ✅ Strong invoicing/AR | ✅ Sales-rep-centric | Best for distributor/field-sales organizations |
1. My pick: BigCommerce B2B Edition
It hits registration approval + Net 30 + B2B invoicing particularly well.
- Businesses can submit an account application and you can require manual approval before they can order or even see products/pricing. docs.bigcommerce.com
- You can configure company-specific payment terms, including Net 30 and Net 60, plus credit limits and credit holds. docs.bigcommerce.com
- The buyer portal supports orders, invoices, approvals and account management. www.bigcommerce.com
- Sales reps can be assigned to companies and can act on behalf of assigned B2B customers. docs.bigcommerce.com
The catch: commission calculation isn't as strong natively as the other two requirements. I'd pair BigCommerce with a commission application or your accounting/CRM system.
2. Shopify Plus + sales-rep commission app
This is particularly interesting if sales rep commissions are a must-have.
For example, the CSS Sales Team app provides rep portals, customer/order assignment, and automatic commission calculations, including commission rules by product, order, or customer. It also supports B2B quotes, payment terms and order management. apps.shopify.com
The combination would look roughly like:
Shopify Plus → B2B customer accounts → approval → Net 30 → rep assigned to account → orders attributed → commission automatically calculated
I'd choose this over BigCommerce if your sales organization is a major part of the business model.
3. Pepperi
If you're a wholesaler/distributor with outside sales reps, Pepperi deserves serious consideration. It's designed around B2B ecommerce and sales-rep order taking, rather than treating sales reps as an add-on. www.bigcommerce.comwww.pepperi.com
It also has an invoice portal showing invoices, AR aging and credit lines, plus order/transaction reporting. www.pepperi.com
What I'd choose
If you're primarily an ecommerce store:
→ BigCommerce B2B Edition + commission integration
If you have a substantial sales-rep organization:
→ Shopify Plus + CSS Sales Team, or Pepperi if reps are doing a lot of offline/field selling.
If you're a distributor/manufacturer with complex B2B workflows:
→ Pepperi or BigCommerce, depending on how sophisticated your sales-rep operation is.
One important distinction: if by "sales rep commissions" you mean "Rep gets 5% of every invoice from customers assigned to them, but only after the invoice is paid", that's a more specific requirement than simple order attribution. In that case, I'd narrow the recommendation based on your accounting system (QuickBooks, NetSuite, Sage, etc.).
If you tell me (1) what you sell, (2) approximate annual sales, (3) number of reps, and (4) whether you use QuickBooks/NetSuite/etc., I can recommend the best specific stack and estimate the monthly cost.

Answer 12 of 15, 15th Aug 2026, gpt-5-6, mentions 2 tracked brands
Yes. For those exact requirements, I’d shortlist three approaches, with Shopify + a B2B sales-rep app probably the best fit for a small/mid-sized company.
| Platform | Customer registration/approval | Net 30 invoicing | Sales-rep commissions | My take |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Shopify + Velocity | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | Best overall/value |
| Shopify + CSS Sales Team | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | Best if commission rules are important |
| OroCommerce | ✅ | ✅ | ⚠️ Likely integration/customization | Best for complex enterprise B2B |
| BigCommerce B2B Edition | ✅ | ✅ | ⚠️ App/integration | Strong B2B foundation |
🥇 My recommendation: Shopify + Velocity
Shopify gives you the B2B storefront/account infrastructure, while Velocity adds the sales-rep layer.
Velocity specifically supports customer onboarding, rep assignment, territories, rep-specific visibility, invoices/approval at checkout, and automatic commission calculations. It can also link orders to the correct rep regardless of where the order originated. apps.shopify.comapps.shopify.com
That gives you a workflow like:
New business registers → admin approves account → assign price list/terms → customer orders → Net 30 invoice → order attributed to sales rep → commission calculated.
Velocity currently lists plans starting at $25/month per sales rep, with a higher tier for territory mapping and multi-level sales teams. apps.shopify.comapps.shopify.com
🥈 Shopify + CSS Sales Team
This is particularly interesting if commission management is a major requirement. CSS supports commission structures by product, order, or customer, automatic commission calculations, monthly rep reports, customer/order assignment, and a dedicated B2B rep portal. apps.shopify.com
It also supports B2B quotes, payment terms and order management. apps.shopify.com
🏢 If you're a larger distributor: OroCommerce
OroCommerce is much more B2B-native than Shopify. It has company accounts, buyer portals, customer-specific pricing, approval workflows, invoices and a built-in CRM/sales workflow. oroinc.com
I'd consider Oro if you have complex account hierarchies, multiple buyers per customer, negotiated pricing, ERP integration, sophisticated approvals, or a large sales organization. The downside is implementation complexity and likely needing to integrate the commission piece.
What I'd choose
If you're a manufacturer, wholesaler, distributor, or brand with perhaps 5–50 reps, I'd start with:
Shopify B2B + Velocity + your accounting/ERP system
It's considerably easier to implement than an enterprise B2B commerce platform while covering the four things you specifically mentioned.
One important caveat: "Net 30" can mean two different things—simply allowing an approved customer to order on terms, or actually underwriting/issuing credit and managing A/R. If you mean the latter, you'll want the store integrated with your accounting/ERP or a B2B credit provider rather than treating Shopify as the accounting system.
If you tell me (1) approximate number of sales reps, (2) what accounting system you use—QuickBooks, NetSuite, Sage, etc., and (3) whether you also sell DTC, I can narrow this down to the best 2–3 architectures and estimated monthly cost.

Answer 13 of 15, 15th Aug 2026, gpt-5-6, mentions 2 tracked brands
For those requirements, I’d shortlist BigCommerce B2B Edition and Shopify Plus B2B, with OroCommerce if your sales process is particularly complex.
| Platform | Registration approval | Net 30 invoicing | Sales reps / commissions | My take |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BigCommerce B2B Edition | ✅ Strong | ✅ Native B2B invoicing/net terms | ⚠️ Rep ordering is strong; commissions usually need an app/integration | Best overall fit |
| Shopify Plus B2B | ✅ Company account requests + approval | ✅ Native payment terms/invoicing | ⚠️ Rep permissions/order-on-behalf are native; commission tracking typically via app | Best if you also have substantial B2C |
| OroCommerce | ✅ Excellent | ✅ Excellent | ✅ Strong sales-rep functionality | Best for complex distributor/manufacturer sales |
| Willowcommerce | ✅ B2B-focused | ✅ Net 30/60/90 | ✅ Claims sales-rep commission tracking | Interesting lower-cost option |
| OrderDock | ⚠️ Approval workflows | ✅ Net 30/60 | ⚠️ Rep portal, but verify commission calculations | Worth considering for smaller wholesale operations |
My recommendation: BigCommerce B2B Edition
BigCommerce B2B Edition is probably the safest choice if B2B is the primary business model.
It supports company accounts, buyer roles/permissions, approval workflows, customer-specific pricing, purchase orders, credit/account management and net payment terms. docs.bigcommerce.com
The one thing I'd pay particular attention to is sales-rep commissions. BigCommerce can support reps placing orders on behalf of customers, but I would expect to connect a commission/CRM system rather than assume commission calculation is a core feature.
If commissions are absolutely central
I'd also demo OroCommerce. It is designed specifically around complex B2B organizations and sales teams, including customer-specific pricing, account structures and sales-rep workflows. www.razoyo.com
Shopify Plus is a close second
Shopify B2B now has a surprisingly good B2B feature set: company account requests, approval, customer-specific catalogs/pricing, Net 30-style payment terms, invoicing, buyer permissions and sales reps who can access assigned customers and place orders for them. www.shopify.com
For commissions, Shopify has apps such as CSS Sales Team that can assign customers/orders to reps and calculate/track commissions. apps.shopify.com
Bottom line:
- Distributor/wholesaler: BigCommerce B2B Edition
- B2B + strong DTC business: Shopify Plus
- Complex sales organization + reps/territories/workflows: OroCommerce
- Smaller operation wanting an all-in-one B2B tool: investigate Willowcommerce/OrderDock
If you tell me your approximate number of customers, number of sales reps, ERP/accounting system (e.g. NetSuite, QuickBooks, Sage), and whether you need reps to get commission on ecommerce orders, I can narrow this to the best 1–2 options and map the exact workflow.

Answer 14 of 15, 15th Aug 2026, gpt-5-6, mentions 3 tracked brands
For a B2B ecommerce/store builder that needs all three:
- Dealer/customer registration approval
- Net 30 invoicing / credit terms
- Sales rep commissions or rep attribution
you’ll want a B2B-native platform rather than a standard Shopify-style storefront with many add-ons. Here are the strongest options:
| Platform | Best fit | Registration approval | Net 30 invoicing | Sales rep commissions |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| WillowCommerce | Small-to-mid wholesale businesses | ✅ Company accounts, approval flows | ✅ Net 30/60/90 terms, invoicing | ✅ Rep assignment and commission tracking |
| BigCommerce B2B Edition | Growing manufacturers/distributors | ✅ Buyer groups and approval workflows | ✅ Purchase orders, invoice-based payments via integrations | ⚠️ Usually via CRM/commission integrations |
| Adobe Commerce B2B | Complex enterprise sales | ✅ Advanced company account approvals | ✅ Credit limits, purchase orders, payment terms | ⚠️ Requires customization/integrations |
| Shopify Plus + B2B apps | Brands already on Shopify | ✅ Company accounts and approvals | ⚠️ Usually requires apps/integrations | ⚠️ Usually requires CRM/commission tools |
| Odoo | Companies wanting ERP + ecommerce together | ✅ Customer approval workflows | ✅ Native invoicing and payment terms | ✅ Sales commissions possible |
My shortlist
Best all-in-one for wholesale/distributor sales:
Odoo
- Handles ecommerce, CRM, customer approval, invoicing, accounting, sales teams, and commissions in one ecosystem.
- Strong choice if your sales reps manage accounts and you need back-office control.
Best dedicated B2B storefront:
WillowCommerce
- Built around wholesale workflows: company accounts, customer-specific pricing, Net 30/60/90 terms, and sales rep tracking. willowcommerce.com
Best enterprise option:
Adobe Commerce B2B
- Good if you have complex catalogs, multiple price lists, regional reps, approval chains, and ERP requirements.
If you already use Shopify:
Look at a B2B layer such as Pocketknife, which adds B2B workflows like customer-specific pricing, approvals, rep ordering, and invoice visibility on top of Shopify/ERP connections. getpocketknife.io
A typical B2B workflow you want the platform to support
- Company registers → submits resale certificate/credit application
- Admin approves account
- Customer sees assigned price list
- Customer orders via PO or checkout
- Order generates invoice with Net 30 terms
- Sales rep receives commission credit
- Accounting tracks receivables
One caution: sales rep commissions are the feature most platforms handle poorly. Many stores can attribute orders to reps but do not calculate commissions. If commissions are a core requirement, prioritize a platform with CRM/ERP capabilities (like Odoo) or plan an integration with a commission system.
If you tell me your industry (distribution, manufacturing, wholesale, food, apparel, medical, etc.), number of reps, and current accounting system (QuickBooks, NetSuite, SAP, etc.), I can narrow this to 2–3 realistic choices.

Answer 15 of 15, 15th Aug 2026, gpt-5-6, mentions no tracked brands
For your requirements, I’d shortlist Zoey, WillowCommerce, and Pepperi, with Zoey as my first choice.
| Platform | Customer registration approval | Net 30 / invoicing | Sales reps & commissions | Best fit |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Zoey | Yes — built in | Yes — built-in AR/invoicing & net terms | Yes — rep attribution + commission reporting | Best overall |
| WillowCommerce | Yes | Yes — Net 30/60/90 | Yes — commission tracking | Smaller/leaner wholesale operation |
| Pepperi | Yes / configurable | Yes, typically with ERP/accounting integration | Very strong sales-rep functionality | Rep-heavy distribution businesses |
1. Zoey — my recommendation
Zoey is unusually close to your entire workflow out of the box.
- Registration approval: prospects can submit a B2B account application; it becomes a CRM opportunity, and once approved the customer gets access. www.zoey.comwillowcommerce.com
- Net 30: Zoey supports AR automation, invoices, payment tracking, and net terms. www.zoey.com
- Sales reps: customers/accounts can be assigned to specific reps, and orders can automatically be attributed to them. www.zoey.com
- Commissions: Zoey provides reporting of order/invoice/payment data for commission calculations. www.zoey.com
- Rep ordering: reps can place orders from a mobile app, including offline. www.zoey.com
Important caveat: Zoey appears to handle commission tracking/reporting, rather than being a full-fledged commission-payroll engine. If you need complex rules such as “rep gets 5% of gross margin, paid only after invoice collection, with different rates by product/customer,” I'd verify that workflow in the demo.
2. WillowCommerce — worth considering
WillowCommerce explicitly advertises company accounts, Net 30/60/90 terms, purchase orders, and sales-rep commission tracking. willowcommerce.com
I'd investigate this one if you want something potentially simpler and more ecommerce-centric than Zoey.
3. Pepperi — strongest if reps are the center of the operation
Pepperi is particularly strong for distributors with substantial outside-sales teams: it combines B2B ecommerce with mobile sales-rep order taking and sales-management tools. www.pepperi.com
I'd choose Pepperi over Zoey if your business is primarily field sales + distribution, rather than primarily online B2B ordering.
My ranking
1. Zoey — best match for all four requirements
2. WillowCommerce — attractive if you want a leaner B2B storefront
3. Pepperi — best if sales reps/field selling are the dominant channel
If you tell me what you sell, approximate number of SKUs, number of sales reps, and whether you're using QuickBooks, NetSuite, or another ERP, I can narrow this down to the best 1–2 options and identify exactly how I'd implement registration → credit approval → Net 30 → order → invoice → commission payout.
