Collect B2B trade account applications for staff review on PrestaShop
PrestaShop trade account B2B registration gives business buyers a controlled way to request wholesale access without exposing trade pricing to every shopper. Trade Account adds a logged-in customer application page, collects business details and gives your team a Back Office queue for reviewing, approving or rejecting access.
You can require company name, VAT number or trade references independently, collect business type and a message, block duplicate pending or approved applications, and choose manual approval or auto-approval. When an application is approved, the configured trade group can be added to the customer and set as the default group.
Customers see account-area status for apply, pending, active or rejected states, which reduces repeated support questions about the application. The module is designed for stores that already use PrestaShop customer groups to manage trade pricing or B2B access and want a repeatable onboarding workflow.
- Authenticated application page. The application page requires a logged-in customer and redirects away when the module is disabled.
- Configurable required fields. Company name, VAT number and trade references can be required independently, while business type and message are available on the application form.
- Duplicate active-request guard. The module checks for existing pending or approved applications before accepting a new submission from the same customer.
- Manual or automatic approval. New applications are saved as pending by default, or immediately approved when auto-approve is enabled.
- Approved buyer segmentation. Once approved, the configured segment is applied to the shopper profile and can become its default segment when a business segment ID is configured.
- Back-office review queue. Admin listing columns include customer name, email, company, VAT number, status and date, with single and bulk approve or reject actions.
- Account status visibility. The customer account link changes between apply, pending, active and rejected states based on the latest application record.
PrestaShop trade account B2B registration
Trade Account adds a controlled B2B application workflow to your PrestaShop store so business buyers can request trade access from their customer account. Wholesale pricing can create real margin risk when it is granted manually or shown to the wrong customers. This module gives you an application form, required business details, applicant status, Back Office review, approval or rejection, automatic wholesale group assignment and optional auto-approval.
Protect trade pricing from the wrong audience
Wholesale prices are commercially sensitive because showing them to retail customers can damage margin and create awkward support conversations. Trade Account keeps access behind an application process instead of exposing special pricing to everyone. Approved customers are moved into the trade group automatically, so pricing rules can apply only after the right decision has been made.
Save staff time on B2B onboarding
Manual trade applications through emails, PDFs and customer-group edits are slow and easy to miss. The module collects company details, VAT number, business type, trade references and a message from the customer account area, then shows applications in a Back Office queue. That gives staff a repeatable process and reduces the time spent chasing missing information.
Give applicants a clearer experience
Business buyers do not want to contact support repeatedly just to ask whether their trade account was reviewed. The module lets applicants see whether their request is pending, approved or rejected from their account area. That transparency reduces support tickets and makes your B2B process feel more professional.
Choose the level of control your business needs
Some stores need manual review for every trade customer, while others are comfortable approving automatically. The module lets you require key fields, configure manual approval or auto-approval, and apply trade group assignment after approval. That flexibility matters because a small local wholesaler and a high-volume B2B store may have very different risk tolerance.
Approval workflow and customer group assignment
Trade Account keeps the B2B application, review decision and customer-group assignment in one PrestaShop workflow. It requires no coding for staff to review applications, approve or reject them, and apply trade pricing through the configured group. The module is practical for stores that want trade access without managing applications manually or building a custom registration path.

Works Well With Trade Account
Modules our team genuinely pairs with this one — and exactly why each belongs in the same setup.
Complement
A merchant running Trade Account gates wholesale access, letting business buyers apply for trade status while keeping trade pricing hidden from ordinary shoppers, with a Back Office queue for approvals. Once approved, a business buyer likes to read prices the way a trade buyer does, which the account workflow itself does not control.
Tax Display Switcher is a separate tool that lets visitors choose tax-included or tax-excluded prices while browsing, with toggle, button or dropdown styles and configurable defaults, without changing real tax rules. It handles price presentation only.
Used together, Trade Account decides who becomes an approved business customer and the switcher lets those buyers choose the ex-VAT figures they prefer to read. A merchant gets controlled trade admission plus a flexible price view, two complementary tools where one governs access and the other lets buyers pick how prices appear.
Workflow
A merchant using Trade Account runs an application and approval process so only vetted business buyers gain trade access. Granting trade status is the entry point; offering those approved buyers a way to pay on invoice terms is a separate capability the account workflow does not include.
B2B Deferred Payment Terms is a distinct tool that adds invoice-style checkout for logged-in customers whose groups have active terms and whose carts stay within configured credit rules, seeding Net 15, Net 30 and Net 60. It handles the pay-later mechanism on its own terms.
Run alongside each other, Trade Account establishes the vetted business customer and the terms module offers a deferred-payment option such customers may use, with approval and terms remaining your own manual decisions rather than one automatically entitling the other. A merchant gets a clean path from trade application to invoice-terms checkout, two complementary B2B tools used in sequence.
Governance
A merchant running Trade Account collects business details, including VAT numbers or trade references, when buyers apply for wholesale access, then reviews each application in a Back Office queue. Confirming that a supplied VAT number is actually valid is a checking task the application form does not perform on its own.
Automatic EU VAT Checker is a separate governance tool that validates EU VAT numbers through VIES, gives live feedback on address pages, can require a number when a company name is entered, caches results and stores validation details for review. It does its own validation job.
Used together, Trade Account manages the approval workflow while the checker provides documented VIES validation of the numbers applicants give, with a valid number never automatically approving an application, which stays your decision. A merchant gets a controlled trade queue plus a reliable VAT-check trail, two complementary tools each owning part of B2B vetting.
Workflow
A merchant using Trade Account fields wholesale applications and works through approvals, which is the start of a longer relationship that generates back-office tasks well beyond the initial decision. Coordinating the orders that follow is a separate operational need.
Advanced Order Workflow is a distinct tool that adds a shared Back Office workspace with teams, custom statuses, assignments, internal comments, mentions, attachments, reminders, notifications and reporting, mapping native order states to responsible teams. It organises the work after an order is placed.
Run alongside each other, Trade Account governs who becomes a business customer and the workflow module coordinates the team handling their orders. Orders that result from approved trade accounts still flow through the same post-order workflow, so a merchant running a growing wholesale operation gets both controlled admission and clear ownership of the surrounding work, two complementary tools where one manages access and the other keeps the tasks moving.
