Request a Quote for WooCommerce by Addify: A Practical Guide for B2B Stores

Turn selected WooCommerce products into quote requests with a configurable quote basket, form fields, role-based rules and quote-to-order workflow.

Request a Quote for WooCommerce by Addify is a WooCommerce plugin for stores where customers need a tailored price estimate before placing an order. Rather than sending every shopper directly through a standard checkout, it lets eligible customers add products to a quote basket, submit a quote request form, and receive a quote that can be converted into an order.

It is particularly relevant to B2B WooCommerce stores, wholesalers, suppliers, and businesses that sell products with negotiated pricing, varied order requirements, or customer-specific terms. The plugin also gives store managers control over which products display an Add to Quote option and how quotation rules work for different customer groups.

What does Request a Quote for WooCommerce do?

WooCommerce is well suited to direct online purchasing, but some sales processes start with a conversation. A customer may need to request pricing for a combination of products, explain requirements, or obtain an estimate before committing to an order. In those situations, a quote-first experience can be more appropriate than a fixed-price, add-to-cart-only journey.

Request a Quote for WooCommerce adds that pathway. Shoppers can collect multiple products in a dedicated quote basket, much like they would use a shopping cart. They then submit their request through a form configured by the store. The store can create and send quotes from the WooCommerce back end, and the resulting quote can be converted into an order when the sale is ready to proceed.

This makes the plugin useful when pricing and purchasing need more flexibility than a standard product page and checkout flow provide.

Who is it for?

This WooCommerce request a quote plugin is a strong fit for businesses that already use WooCommerce but need a more structured way to handle pre-sale pricing enquiries. Common audiences include:

• B2B sellers handling business purchases that require a price estimate before ordering.
• Wholesale stores that need distinct quotation options for wholesale and retail customers.
• Suppliers with mixed customer groups who want separate quote rules for guests, general customers, retail customers, or wholesale customers.
• Stores with selected quote-only products where not every product should follow the same buying flow.
• Sales teams that need to prepare quotes from the admin area and email them to customers.
• Agencies and developers building WooCommerce sites that need configurable quote forms and role-based quotation behaviour.

It may be less central for a store where every item has a fixed public price and customers always complete payment immediately through the usual WooCommerce cart and checkout. In that scenario, assess whether a quotation workflow solves a real operational need before adding another step to the buying journey.

Key features of Request a Quote for WooCommerce

Quote basket for multiple products

Customers can add multiple products to a quote basket instead of submitting isolated product enquiries. This gives the business context for the whole potential purchase and gives the customer one place to review the products they want priced.

Quote buttons on selected products

The plugin can display an Add to Quote button on selected products. This is useful when only some catalogue items need quotation. It also supports a Quote button or a custom button and link that can replace Add to Cart, helping stores make the preferred action clearer where a standard direct-purchase flow is not appropriate.

Button text can be customised, so site owners can use wording that matches their sales process, such as “Request Pricing” or “Build a Quote,” where appropriate for their store.

Customisable quote submission forms

The quote form is not restricted to a fixed set of inputs. Store managers can add, remove, and edit fields, with support for unlimited fields in the quote submission form. This lets the business collect the information it needs to prepare an estimate, rather than relying only on a customer name and a product list.

The same flexibility is useful for adapting the form to different kinds of orders. Before configuring fields, decide which details genuinely help your team respond accurately. A focused form can help customers submit useful requests without making the process unnecessarily long.

Rule-based quotation options by customer role

A key capability is rule-based management. The plugin allows different quotation options to be configured around user roles, including guests, general customers, retail customers, and wholesale customers. This is valuable for stores that serve more than one type of buyer and do not want every visitor to encounter the same quote process.

For example, a business can plan a quotation experience around its wholesale and retail groups while retaining an option for guest enquiries. The important point is that the quote flow can be aligned with the store’s business model rather than treated as a single universal setting.

Price visibility in quote-related areas

The plugin can enable the display of the standard price in the quote basket, the customer’s My Account area, and quote emails. This provides a configurable way to include the regular price alongside quote-related information when that supports the store’s process.

Quote messages, emails, and order conversion

Store owners can customise quote submission messages and email notifications. Once a quotation is ready, the team can create a quote from the back end and email it to the customer. The plugin also supports converting a quote into an order, connecting the initial enquiry to the next stage of the WooCommerce sales workflow.

Typical use cases

B2B product enquiries with several line items

A business buyer may need a set of products priced together. Instead of contacting the supplier separately about every item, the buyer adds products to the quote basket and submits one request. The supplier can then review the complete requirement and issue a quote.

Wholesale and retail quotation paths

Stores serving both trade buyers and retail customers can use role-based management to configure quotation options around those groups. This supports a more deliberate WooCommerce B2B sales process while still recognising that customer types may have different needs.

Quote-only or enquiry-led products

Some products are better introduced through a pricing conversation than a direct add-to-cart action. On selected products, the store can display Add to Quote or replace Add to Cart with a quote button or custom link. That gives visitors a clear next step when price estimation is the intended route.

Admin-created quotations for existing customers

The workflow is not limited to incoming customer requests. Staff can create quotes in the back end and send them by email. This can be useful when a customer has discussed requirements directly with the business and the team needs a structured way to issue the quotation and later turn it into an order.

What to consider before buying

Start with the sales process you want customers to follow. Request a Quote for WooCommerce is designed for stores that need price estimation and quotation management, not merely a contact form. Define which products should show quote controls, whether the quote button should replace the normal cart action, and which customer groups should have access to quotation options.

Next, map the information your team needs to prepare an estimate. The plugin supports editable and unlimited form fields, but the best field setup depends on your operation. Consider what details enable a meaningful quote, and keep the form focused on those requirements.

Also decide how you want standard prices handled. The plugin can display the standard price in the quote basket, My Account, and quote emails. Whether to enable this should reflect your own pricing and communication approach.

Finally, plan who will manage incoming requests, prepare back-end quotes, and convert approved quotes into orders. A quote tool works best when the internal follow-up process is clear as well as the customer-facing experience.
