No company locations. | | Payment terms | Net 7, 15, 30, 45, 60 or 90 days, due on fulfilment, or a fixed date on a draft order. | Net days per company. An order on account is confirmed with a due date and counts against the limit until it is marked paid. | | Credit limits | Not described on Shopify’s B2B plan-features or payment-terms pages. App Store apps add them, such as Extend B2B Credit Limits at US$79 a month, which blocks or warns at checkout. | Checked inside the checkout against what the company owes plus the order’s final total, under a lock per company, so two orders at once cannot both fit under one limit. | | Catalogues | Up to 3 active B2B catalogues on Basic, Grow and Advanced; unlimited on Plus.

Shopify says it does not create GST-compliant bills. | Razorpay and Cashfree on the store’s checkout, though not yet inside the portal’s basket.

A store hosted on kitcommerce.store pays 1% of every successful order instead. - No app store. What a module does not cover, somebody writes. - GoCommerce has over 2,000 tests, but no store we know of runs it in production yet. - Svelte Commerce reaches GoCommerce through an early connector, version 0.16.0: catalogue, cart, cash-on-delivery checkout and order lookup work; shopper sign-in, the address book and order history need GoCommerce’s identity module. - No e-invoice, e-way bill or GST credit note, and the TallyPrime files have not yet been test-imported into TallyPrime itself. - Dealers pay on account in the portal; paying by UPI or card from the portal’s basket is not finished yet. FAQ ### Questions about Shopify B2B and GoCommerce **Does Shopify B2B have credit limits?** Shopify’s help pages on B2B plan features and payment terms do not describe one. Apps in the Shopify App Store add credit limits, such as Extend B2B Credit Limits at US$79 a month, which can block an order or show a warning at checkout. GoCommerce checks a credit limit inside its own checkout. **Is Shopify B2B only on Plus?** No. Shopify’s help centre says most B2B features are on every plan, including companies, catalogues and net payment terms. Direct company catalogues, more than 3 active B2B catalogues, deposits and partial payments are Plus only. **Can GoCommerce do company locations like Shopify?** No. A GoCommerce company has members in roles, terms, a catalogue and a price group, but not separate locations with their own terms. Shopify B2B has them on every plan. **Can I move my B2B customers from Shopify?** The catalogue comes across with the Shopify import module. Companies, their terms and catalogues are set up again in GoCommerce, by hand or through its API. **Which one makes GST invoices?** GoCommerce does, for a store in India with a valid GSTIN that sells in rupees: every paid order gets a tax invoice with HSN codes, the place of supply and the CGST, SGST or IGST split, and the invoices export to TallyPrime. It makes no e-invoices or e-way bills. Shopify says it does not create GST-compliant bills and points merchants to an app or service. ### More comparisons: Shopify The same questions, asked of the platforms Shopify B2B is usually weighed against.
