What is a jewelry wholesale B2B website?

A jewelry wholesale B2B website is a private buyer portal where your retail accounts, big-box chains, and independent jewelers log in to browse inventory, place orders at their negotiated tier price, and pay via ACH or net-30 invoice -- all without a middleman platform skimming 25% per transaction. Unlike Faire or RangeMe, you own every buyer relationship, control your margin structure, and set credit limits per account. The portal connects to your existing ERP or inventory system, pulls real-time stock counts across multiple warehouses, and generates EDI 850/855/856 documents that Nordstrom, Macy's, or Costco purchasing systems require. Buyers see only the product lines, price tiers, and payment terms you assign to their account. Your field reps stop emailing PDF line sheets and instead share login-gated catalogs with high-resolution imagery, GIA or IGI cert data, and AGTA treatment disclosures baked into every product card. Reorder automation triggers when a buyer's typical replenishment window opens, sending them a pre-filled cart based on purchase history. Payment collection shifts from chasing checks to automated Stripe ACH pulls on net-30 terms, cutting your DSO by 12 to 18 days on average.

Your Current Site May Be a Liability

Common gaps we find in nearly every audit.

Faire and RangeMe collect 25% commission on every order
Risk: On $2M annual wholesale volume, that is $500K in margin surrendered to a platform that also owns your buyer data
Big-box retailers require EDI 850/855/856 and you cannot comply
Risk: You lose shelf placement at Nordstrom, Costco, or Macy's because your system cannot generate compliant purchase order acknowledgments
Payment terms are net-30 but collection is manual
Risk: Your accounts receivable team chases invoices by email, DSO creeps past 45 days, and cash flow tightens before your next AGTA show buy
Reps still email PDF line sheets with outdated pricing
Risk: Buyers see last quarter's prices, place orders at wrong tiers, and your ops team spends 6+ hours per week correcting purchase orders
No buyer-specific pricing or credit limit controls
Risk: A new account with no purchase history gets the same terms as your 10-year anchor buyer, compressing margin on high-volume accounts
Inventory is split across multiple warehouses with no unified view
Risk: You oversell a parcel of calibrated sapphires from your New York vault while the same SKU sits unsold in your Mumbai facility

What We Build

Purpose-built features for your industry.

Tiered Pricing Engine

Assign price tiers per buyer group -- independent jeweler, chain retailer, NGJA member, volume buyer. Each account sees only their negotiated cost when they log in, down to the SKU level.

EDI 850/855/856 Integration

Generate and receive compliant EDI documents for big-box retail buyers. Purchase orders flow in, acknowledgments fire back, and advance ship notices transmit automatically when your warehouse ships.

ACH + Net-30 Invoice Automation

Stripe ACH pulls funds automatically on the invoice due date. Buyers get reminders at day 20, day 25, and day 30. Your DSO drops from 45+ days to under 32 days on average.

Multi-Warehouse Fulfillment

Unified inventory across New York, Mumbai, Bangkok, or any vault location. The system routes each order to the nearest warehouse with available stock and generates packing slips with GIA or IGI cert references.

Reorder Automation + Pre-Filled Carts

The portal tracks each buyer's purchase cadence and triggers a reorder prompt with a pre-built cart based on their last three orders. One click to confirm, one click to pay.

Login-Gated Digital Line Sheets

Replace emailed PDFs with live catalogs your reps share via secure link. Each buyer sees their pricing, AGTA treatment codes, cert data, and high-resolution imagery -- always current, never stale.

Our Development Process

From discovery to launch. Quality at every step.

01

Wholesale Workflow Audit

Week 1-2

We map your current buyer tiers, payment terms, EDI requirements, warehouse locations, and ERP/inventory stack. We interview your top 5 accounts to identify friction points in their reorder process.

02

Portal Architecture + Pricing Logic

Week 3-4

We design the data model for tiered pricing, credit limits, buyer groups, and multi-warehouse routing. EDI document specs are confirmed with your big-box retail partners. Wireframes reviewed with your sales team.

03

Build + Integration Sprint

Week 5-9

Portal development begins. Stripe ACH, EDI middleware, ERP sync, and warehouse APIs are connected. Product catalog ingests GIA/IGI cert data, AGTA treatment disclosures, and multi-angle photography.

04

Buyer UAT + Rep Training

Week 10-11

Your top 10 buyer accounts test the portal with real orders. Sales reps learn to share gated line sheets, manage buyer credit limits, and monitor reorder triggers. We fix every issue surfaced in testing.

05

Launch + Ongoing Optimization

Week 12+

Portal goes live. We onboard remaining accounts in waves, monitor ACH collection rates, and tune reorder automation thresholds. Monthly retainer covers EDI updates, new buyer tier configurations, and feature releases.

Frequently Asked Questions

A production-ready jewelry wholesale B2B portal starts at $60K and scales to $200K depending on complexity. A $60K build covers tiered buyer pricing, Stripe ACH payment, a single warehouse, and a login-gated product catalog with GIA or IGI cert display. At the $120K mark you add EDI 850/855/856 integration for big-box retailers like Nordstrom or Costco, multi-warehouse fulfillment routing, and reorder automation with pre-filled carts. The $200K tier includes full ERP integration with systems like SAP Business One or NetSuite, custom credit limit workflows with automated approval chains, and advanced analytics dashboards tracking buyer lifetime value, reorder frequency, and margin per tier. After launch, a monthly retainer of $5K to $15K covers ongoing EDI spec updates, new buyer onboarding configurations, catalog management, and feature releases. Compare that to Faire's 25% commission on a $2M wholesale book -- you recoup the build cost in under five months.
Most wholesale jewelry portals launch in 12 weeks from kickoff to live buyer orders. Weeks 1 and 2 cover your workflow audit -- we map buyer tiers, payment terms, warehouse locations, and EDI requirements. Weeks 3 and 4 focus on architecture, pricing logic design, and wireframe review with your sales team. The core build sprint runs weeks 5 through 9, connecting Stripe ACH, EDI middleware, your ERP, and warehouse APIs. Weeks 10 and 11 are buyer testing and rep training with real orders. Week 12 is launch. If you need EDI compliance for a specific retailer onboarding deadline, we can fast-track that integration into a parallel sprint. Post-launch onboarding of remaining buyer accounts typically runs 4 to 6 additional weeks as your reps migrate accounts off emailed line sheets.
Yes. We build EDI 850, 855, and 856 document flows that meet the exact specifications of retailers like Nordstrom, Macy's, Costco, JCPenney, and Signet. Your portal receives inbound EDI 850 purchase orders, auto-generates 855 acknowledgments confirming price and availability, and transmits 856 advance ship notices with tracking and carton-level detail when your warehouse ships. We connect through SPS Commerce, TrueCommerce, or direct AS2 channels depending on what each retailer mandates. The integration maps your internal SKUs, GIA cert numbers, and AGTA treatment codes to the retailer's item master. Most EDI integrations are production-ready within the 12-week build timeline. If a retailer changes their spec -- and they do -- your retainer covers updates.
Your portal supports unlimited buyer tiers, each with its own price list, minimum order quantity, and payment terms. You might have Tier 1 for independent jewelers at keystone markup, Tier 2 for regional chains at 15% below keystone, Tier 3 for big-box accounts at negotiated net pricing, and a special NGJA or AGTA member tier with show pricing extended year-round. Each buyer logs in and sees only their tier's prices -- no crossed wires, no accidental margin giveaways. You can override pricing at the individual account level for anchor buyers. Credit limits are set per account with automated holds when a buyer hits their ceiling. Your ops team manages all of this from an admin dashboard, not a spreadsheet.
When a buyer places an order, the portal generates an invoice with net-30 terms and stores their verified bank account via Stripe ACH. On the due date, the system automatically initiates the ACH debit. Buyers receive payment reminders at day 20, day 25, and day 30. If the pull fails, your team gets an immediate alert with the failure reason -- insufficient funds, closed account, or authorization revoked. You set credit limits per account, and the portal blocks new orders when an account has outstanding invoices past their limit. For buyers who prefer wire or check, the system tracks manual payments and reconciles against open invoices. Our clients typically see DSO drop from 45+ days to under 32 days within the first quarter of using automated ACH collection.
Faire takes 25% of every wholesale transaction and owns the buyer relationship -- if Faire changes its algorithm or fee structure, your revenue is at their mercy. On $2M in annual wholesale, that is $500K gone. BigCommerce B2B is a step up, but it was not built for the jewelry trade. It cannot display GIA or IGI cert data inline, does not generate EDI 850/855/856 documents for big-box retailers, and its pricing tier system lacks per-account credit limits and AGTA treatment code display. A custom portal means you own every buyer email, control every margin point, and integrate directly with your ERP and warehouses. Your buyers get a branded experience with real-time inventory across vaults in New York, Mumbai, or Bangkok -- not a generic marketplace listing next to your competitors.
Every product card in your portal can display the GIA, IGI, AGS, GRS, or Gubelin certificate number as a clickable link to the lab's verification page. AGTA treatment disclosure codes -- N for no treatment, H for heat only, E for enhancement -- render as standardized badges your buyers already recognize from trade shows and AGTA directories. For colored stones, you can include GRS origin determination, Gubelin appendix letters, and SSEF test reports. For diamonds, the portal pulls four Cs data and plots it against your pricing grid. Buyers filter and sort by cert type, treatment status, origin, carat range, and color grade. This is not a PDF attachment -- it is structured data your buyers can search, compare, and trust before they click reorder.
Your retainer of $5K to $15K per month covers four categories of ongoing work. First, EDI maintenance -- when Nordstrom updates their 856 spec or a new retailer sends you a trading partner agreement, we implement the changes. Second, buyer onboarding -- new account configurations, tier assignments, credit limit adjustments, and custom catalog views. Third, catalog operations -- new product lines, photography uploads, cert data ingestion from GIA or IGI batch reports, and AGTA code updates. Fourth, feature development -- adding RapNet or IDEX price feed integration, building a rep commission dashboard, or shipping a mobile reorder app for buyers who place orders from the GJEPC show floor. You get a dedicated engineer and a project manager. We ship updates every two weeks and review portal analytics monthly with your sales leadership.
