How to Set Up Wholesale Pricing on Shopify

Stop managing separate stores, spreadsheets, and manual price adjustments. Wholesale Whale lets you run wholesale and retail from one Shopify store with automatic tag-based pricing.

The Challenge: Managing Wholesale Pricing Is Painful

Running a separate wholesale storefront with its own inventory, theme, and admin workload doubles your operational overhead.

Maintaining spreadsheets of wholesale prices for different customer tiers quickly becomes unmanageable as your product catalog grows.

Manually adjusting prices or applying discount codes for each wholesale order is error-prone and time-consuming.

Password-protected wholesale pages create a clunky experience that frustrates your B2B customers.

Without automation, onboarding new wholesale accounts requires manual setup for every single customer.

How Wholesale Whale Solves This

1

Step 1: Tag Your Customers

Add tags like "wholesale," "distributor," or "trade" to customers in Shopify admin. Each tag represents a pricing tier. You can tag customers manually or use the wholesale signup form for self-service onboarding.

Step 2: Create Discount Rules

In Wholesale Whale, create a discount rule for each tag. Set percentage-based or fixed-amount discounts, and optionally restrict them to specific products or collections. For example: "wholesale" customers get 25% off all products.

Step 3: Prices Adjust Automatically

Tagged customers see their personalized wholesale prices directly on product pages. At checkout, the Shopify Function applies the correct discount automatically. No codes, no manual adjustments, no separate storefronts.
