B2B e-commerce · Manufacturing

B2B e-commerce for custom manufactured parts

SeekMake brings e-commerce to custom parts: business buyers get instant quotes, keep an account, and pay by card, PayPal, bank transfer or purchase order.

Business buyers of custom parts need more than a checkout: they need an account where past quotes are saved, invoices are available and orders can go through on a purchase order. Consumer e-commerce platforms are built for fixed products, not for a price that comes from an uploaded file. Combining file-based quoting with B2B payment terms fits how industrial purchasing works.

FAQ

Questions shops ask before switching

Which payment methods can customers use?

Card, PayPal and bank transfer. Large B2B orders can also be paid by bank transfer or purchase order.

Yes. You set shipping rules and the cost is added at checkout.

Can I offer discounts?

Yes. You can create coupons and discounts for new customers, repeat buyers or large orders.

Can buyers reorder the same part from their account?

Yes. The customer portal keeps saved quotes and past orders, so a repeat part can be reordered.

Does it work with WooCommerce?

Which files can customers upload?

STEP, STL, DXF and more files. The part is checked and measured automatically when it is uploaded.
