Super cranky right now. Idk why I missed that it’s a $2,000/month fee to use the wholesale option. I spent the last 2 weeks migrating my entire store/inventory so I could set up the wholesale site and when I’m finally ready to click on the app it’s a surprise that the wholesale app is only available for $2,000/month. I didn’t see anywhere where it said that before. All it says is that wholesale is “available” and the “Plus” account required isn’t advertised On the main pricing page so I made the stupid assumption that it was the same as the Pro that IS advertised. Some of us are SMALL wholesalers just starting out. That’s an insane amount of money just for the platform. What a waste of my time. ?
Topic summary
Main issue: A store owner reports discovering that Shopify’s wholesale feature requires a Shopify Plus plan at $2,000/month after spending two weeks migrating their store, saying this wasn’t clearly indicated on the main pricing page and was confused with “Pro.” They describe this cost as unfeasible for small wholesalers.
Context/terms:
- “Shopify Plus” is described by the poster as the required (enterprise-level) plan to access the wholesale option.
- The “wholesale app/option” refers to Shopify’s built-in wholesale capability, which the poster says is only available on Plus.
Responses and suggestions:
- One participant advises asking for a refund and asks for the specific app name.
- Another suggests a third-party alternative, “Discount Depot,” which offers wholesale/custom pricing based on customer tags.
Outcomes/next steps:
- No confirmed resolution; the original poster has not replied with a decision.
- Actionable ideas: request a refund, consider third-party wholesale-pricing apps that don’t require Plus.
Status: Ongoing, with alternatives proposed but no final decision or confirmation from the original poster.
Why don’t you ask for a refund? What’s the name of the app.
In case, if you are still looking for a solution to offer wholesale prices to your customer, you can try our Discount Depot App, which helps you to offer custom/wholesale prices to the customers based on their tags.
Let me know if I can help you with any other concerns.
