B2B Ninja (formerly Quote Ninja) is a BigCommerce quoting application that allows your customers to quickly and easily request quotes on your storefront before placing an order. Your sales staff can view and process these quotes from your control panel, as well as create custom quotes on behalf of customers.

B2B Ninja’s quoting capabilities are a valuable asset for B2B businesses because of the flexibility and customization it provides for your business and your buyers. On the buyer side, they can communicate their unique needs within the quote, such as custom products, large quantities, shipping methods, and desired payment format.

Upon receiving a quote, your team can use B2B Ninja’s tools to accommodate the buyer’s special requests and add discounts, payment terms, and quote expiration dates for them to use at checkout. This workflow increases buyer satisfaction and contributes to conversion, while ensuring that orders are being placed with the information and format required by your business’ needs.

In this guide, we’ll discuss how to set up B2B Ninja in your BigCommerce store, creating and managing quotes in the B2B Ninja dashboard, and the storefront quoting experience for your customers.
