Is there a free trial?
Section titled “Is there a free trial?”Yes. Each store gets one 14-day free trial. Start it with Start 14-day free trial in Pricing plans > Add-ons. The trial includes the 3 reps that come with the add-on.
Prices and discounts
Section titled “Prices and discounts”Can a rep give a discount?
Section titled “Can a rep give a discount?”Yes, within the Maximum discount you set on the rep. The default is 0, so a new rep can’t lower any price. Discount codes are not applied to sales rep orders; reps adjust prices within the max discount you set.
Can a rep charge more than the B2B price?
Section titled “Can a rep charge more than the B2B price?”Yes. The portal flags the line to the rep and the Activity log records it.
Reps and customers
Section titled “Reps and customers”Can a rep order for a customer who belongs to a company?
Section titled “Can a rep order for a customer who belongs to a company?”A rep orders for the company location, not for the person as a plain customer. A company contact can’t be assigned as a customer, and the rep sees Order for [name] through their company.
Does a rep order follow the customer’s credit limit?
Section titled “Does a rep order follow the customer’s credit limit?”Yes, when you use the Credit limit add-on and the order is on payment terms (Pay later). The check uses the order subtotal, before tax and shipping.
- Block rule: the portal does not create the order and shows This order would go over the customer’s credit limit.
- Warn rule: the order is created, and the rep sees This order is over the customer’s credit limit. The store may need to review it.
What happens when I pause a rep?
Section titled “What happens when I pause a rep?”The rep can still sign in and see old orders, but can’t create or change orders. The rep keeps the seat.
Commission
Section titled “Commission”How is commission worked out?
Section titled “How is commission worked out?”Commission is based on product lines. Shipping and order-level refunds do not change commission. See commission.
When the add-on ends
Section titled “When the add-on ends”How long can I see commission after the add-on ends?
Section titled “How long can I see commission after the add-on ends?”Commission records stay available for 90 days. You can view, export and mark commission as paid. No new commission is earned for orders paid after the add-on ended. If you buy the add-on again within 90 days, the old records continue as before. After 90 days they are no longer available.
