Turn your RFQs into orders. Managing requests for quote by hand? Customers placing pre-season and back-orders? SparkLayer’s Quoting Engine gives you an end-to-end “quote to order” experience on your existing website - everything in a single solution.

With SparkLayer enabled, your B2B customers sign into your website and start adding items to their order. When they’re done they check out and select “Request quote” to begin the process.

  • Support for product customisations
  • Upload files to an order (e.g. PDFs)
  • Add “out of stock” products to an order
  • Add “price on application” (POA) products to an order
  • Apply price breaks and volume discounts as quotes are built

Read the documentation

The Quoting Engine comes with workflow automations that notify your sales team when a new quote needs reviewing. All they do is sign in to your website and the review process begins.

  • Set up email notifications for new quotes
  • Set automatic expiry dates
  • Modify quotes on the fly with edits
  • Edit prices and product rules - packs, price breaks, quantity tiers
  • Define workflows for the review process

Read the documentation

There is normally a back-and-forth before a quote is finalised. SparkLayer has a built-in conversation timeline that lets your sales team and your customer correspond until both are happy - and the customer has true visibility of the quote’s status at any time.

  • Send messages with instant notifications
  • Let the sales team leave internal notes
  • Download the latest quote as a PDF
  • Continue to make edits to the quote

Read the documentation

Once your team has corresponded and made any final edits, the customer approves the quote and it converts into a completed order for you to process as normal. They can then track it like any other order and await the goods.

  • Approve a quote in a single click
  • Download an invoice as a PDF
  • Track the order from their account area
  • Use existing workflows to process orders
  • Allow customers to re-order quickly

Use cases as unique as your business. The Quoting Engine reaches well beyond “request for quote” - think of it as a sales-assist tool for the whole B2B purchasing journey.

01

Quote to order

Let customers build orders as quotes for your sales team to review before payment. Your team can make revisions and correspond directly with the customer, all from your website.

02

Pre-ordering

Customers build and request quotes for you to process later - and it’s possible to add out-of-stock and unavailable products to an order, which matters if pre-orders and back-orders carry your season.

03

Price on Application

Configure “Price on Application” for products in your catalog, so customers can add items that don’t yet have confirmed pricing and you can confirm the price later.

04

Price breaks & sales-assisted carts

Pricing that depends on volume, guided by a person. The Quoting Engine supports price breaks at every stage, so as quantities change your sales team can apply the right tiered pricing and the customer reviews and finalises.

05

Multi-currency quoting

SparkLayer works with Shopify Markets to support multi-currency pricing throughout quoting. Customers see and negotiate in their assigned currency, with breaks and tiers applied automatically.

06

And whatever your trade does

Season ordering for fashion, requests for proposal, negotiation workflows, volume-based price breaks - plan a season ahead or negotiate line by line, and the quote, its revisions and approval all live in one place. The same engine handles them all.

Your sales team and your customers, in one place. Quotes move out of email threads and spreadsheets, onto the website both sides already use.

Give your team an easy way to manage B2B quotes and orders for their customers. They can sign in on behalf of a specific customer, edit a quote, and communicate changes through the message timeline - every conversation and revision in one place, instead of lost between email threads and spreadsheets.

  • Act on behalf of any customer
  • Revise a live quote and send it back
  • A message timeline attached to the quote itself
  • Apply price breaks as quantities change

Requesting a quote should feel like the rest of your store, because it is the rest of your store. Customers track active quotes, look back over order history, and re-order or build a new quote in a click - a self-service experience that feels effortless from a website they already know.

  • Request a quote straight from the basket
  • See every active quote and its status
  • Negotiate without leaving the site
  • Accept, and it becomes their order

Beyond the experience, the time back. Automatic price breaks and multi-currency pricing that would otherwise be worked out by hand, and one place where the state of every quote is knowable. If you are running quotes offline or through a cumbersome system today, you will notice the difference immediately.

  • Price breaks and tiers applied automatically
  • Multi-currency without a spreadsheet
  • One place to see every open quote
  • No re-keying between quote and order

Can I get a demo of the SparkLayer Quoting Engine?

Yes, absolutely. We'd be happy to discuss your requirements and see if this is a good fit for you. You can book a demo and we can run through how the SparkLayer Quoting Engine works.

How much does the SparkLayer Quoting Engine cost?

The SparkLayer Quoting Engine is available on our Pro and Enterprise plans as standard. You can also add it to any plan for an additional $49 per month. Please note, you will also require at least one sales agent enabled on your account in order to use the SparkLayer Quoting Engine. You can learn more about our pricing here.

Can I trial the SparkLayer Quoting engine before committing?

Yes, we offer a free 14-day trial to test SparkLayer and we can also extend this if you need more time. To get started, you can sign up for a free 14-day trial here. Alternatively, you can book a demo and we can run through how SparkLayer works.

How does this compare to other B2B quoting systems?

At a top level, the goal of SparkLayer's Quoting Engine is simplicity. We believe this to be a huge differentiating factor compared to other B2B platforms that can be very cumbersome to use. One of the major benefits of the SparkLayer quoting tool in comparison is how seamlessly it can integrate with your existing website and systems. If you're already using SparkLayer for your B2B customers to place orders, they can instantly begin submitting quotes, too. It also provides a simple way to incorporate your sales team (e.g. sales reps) into the quoting process with an experience they'll love!

Can the SparkLayer Quoting Engine handle CPQs?

Yes, the SparkLayer Quoting Engine can be used for Configure, Price, Quote (CPQ) requirements. At a top level, here's how:

Configure: The customer can select products and apply basic customisations (this will require using our JavaScript SDK).
Price: You can set pricing within SparkLayer, including price breaks for volume and quantity tiers, use our discount engine, support multi-currency quoting for international customers, and even modify pricing on the fly.
Quote: Sales teams can generate professional, branded quote documents that are accurate and consistent, and send them directly to customers.

We'd be happy to discuss your specific requirements in more detail.

Does the SparkLayer Quoting Engine support multi-currency quoting?

Yes, via Shopify Markets. See the multi-currency quoting section above for how it works, or read our full setup guide and watch the walkthrough video.

Does the SparkLayer Quoting Engine send emails and invoices?

Yes. Built into the SparkLayer Quoting Engine is a powerful email system that keeps your sales team and customers in the loop. For example, when a customer submits a quote, your sales team are immediately notified. Similarly, when an update to a quote is made, your customer is notified of any changes.

The SparkLayer Quoting Engine also features an invoicing system that lets your B2B customers download PDF copies of their quotes and orders. Both emails and quotes can be customised via the editor built into the SparkLayer Dashboard.
