# Hide Price & Add to Cart

This section explains how to use **Hide Price** and **Hide Add to Cart** within Quote Logic, and how to combine this with other B2B apps such as **B2B Lock** and **Custom Pricing** (B2B Solution / Shopify B2B).

***

### 1. Overview

With Quote Logic, you can control:

* Whether **prices** are shown or hidden
* Whether **Add to Cart / Buy It Now** buttons are available
* Whether customers must **request a quote** instead of placing a normal order

This is configured in the **Set Up Prices & Buttons** area of each quote rule.

Typical patterns:

* Keep price + Add to Cart + Quote button
* Show price + Quote only (no Add to Cart)
* Hide price + Quote only (full “price on request” mode)

***

### 2. Common Scenarios

#### A. “Call for Price” / “Request a Quote” Only

**Goal:** You do not want to show prices at all for certain products or customer groups. Customers must contact you first.

**Configuration idea:**

* Hide **price**
* Hide **Add to Cart / Buy It Now**
* Show **Quote button** with label like:
  * “Request a quote”
  * “Contact us for pricing”

**Typical use cases:**

* Highly customized products
* Large project-based orders
* Products with frequently changing costs (materials, FX, etc.)

***

#### B. Logged-In Customers Only (Hide Price for Guests)

**Goal:** Show prices and purchase options only to logged-in customers. Guests see “Login to see price” or “Request a quote”.

**Configuration idea:**

1. Create a quote rule targeting **All visitors** or **Not logged-in** users.
2. For that rule:
   * Hide **price**
   * Hide **Add to Cart**
   * Show **Quote button** or message like “Login or request a quote”.
3. For logged-in B2B customers, use:
   * Another quote rule (or no rule) to show normal pricing and Add to Cart.

**Typical use cases:**

* Wholesale sites where public visitors should not see B2B pricing
* Stores that require approval before showing prices

***

#### C. VIP-Only Pricing / RFQ

**Goal:** Standard B2B customers see normal prices and checkout; **VIP customers** get special “request a quote” treatment or hidden prices.

**Configuration idea:**

1. Tag VIP customers, e.g. `vip_b2b`.
2. Create a quote rule with **customer tags = vip\_b2b** and **higher priority**:
   * Option 1: Show price + Add to Cart + Quote (for extra negotiation room).
   * Option 2: Hide price + Quote only (for fully negotiated deals).
3. Create a more general rule (lower priority) for regular B2B customers (e.g. show price, no RFQ or optional RFQ).

**Typical use cases:**

* Key accounts with special volume deals
* Distributors with contract-based pricing
* Early-access or pilot customers

***

### 3. How to Configure Hide Price & Add to Cart

For each quote rule:

1. Go to **Set Up Prices & Buttons**.
2. In the **Hide Price** section:
   * Choose whether to **show or hide** product prices.
3. In the **Button** section:
   * Decide whether to show/hide **Add to Cart** and **Buy It Now**.
   * Enable the **Quote button** on product pages and/or collection pages.
   * Set the button text and position (e.g. under price, under Add to Cart).
4. Save the quote rule and test on the storefront as:
   * A guest
   * A logged-in B2B customer
   * A VIP / tagged customer (if applicable)

Use customer conditions + product conditions + price/button settings to precisely control the experience.

***

### 4. Combining with B2B Lock

**B2B Lock** (Lock/Login/Hide Price app) controls **access** to pages and content. Quote Logic controls **behavior on product pages** (price visibility, quote button, Add to Cart).

You can combine them for stronger B2B workflows:

#### Example 1 – Fully private B2B catalog

* **B2B Lock:**
  * Lock collections and product pages for non-logged-in visitors.
  * Redirect guests to a login or B2B registration page.
* **Quote Logic:**
  * For logged-in B2B users, show **hidden price + Quote only** for certain collections.
  * For other collections, show normal price + Add to Cart.

#### Example 2 – Public catalog, quotes for B2B only

* **B2B Lock:**
  * Do not lock product pages; keep catalog visible to everyone.
  * Optionally hide only key B2B pages (e.g. wholesale onboarding).
* **Quote Logic:**
  * For tagged B2B customers → show Quote button (optionally hide Add to Cart on specific products).
  * For public visitors → show standard pricing and Add to Cart, no RFQ.

**Key idea:**\
Use B2B Lock to decide **who can see pages**, and use Quote Logic to decide **what pricing/actions appear** on those pages.

***

### 5. Combining with Custom Pricing (B2B Solution / Shopify B2B)

If you are using **B2B Solution (custom pricing)** or **Shopify B2B catalogs**, you can layer Quote Logic on top:

#### A. Custom pricing + optional RFQ

**Goal:** Show personalized prices, but still allow customers to negotiate via RFQ.

* Custom pricing app or Shopify B2B:
  * Controls **base price** per customer, company, or catalog.
* Quote Logic:
  * Keeps **price visible** for transparency.
  * Adds a **Quote button** so customers can ask for better terms for large orders.

#### B. Custom pricing + RFQ-only for special items

**Goal:** Most products use custom pricing; some sensitive SKUs are “quote only”.

* Custom pricing logic sets base prices for all products.
* Quote Logic rule for **specific collections/tags**:
  * Hide price and Add to Cart.
  * Show Quote only.
* Other products still show custom prices and normal checkout.

#### C. Shopify B2B catalogs + RFQ per Company/Location

**Goal:** Respect catalog pricing per Company/Location, with RFQ as an extra option.

* Shopify B2B catalogs:
  * Control **prices per Company/Location**.
* Quote Logic in **B2B Store mode**:
  * Targets specific Companies/Locations with different hide/show rules.
  * Example:
    * Company A: sees catalog prices + Quote button.
    * Company B: certain products are quote-only, hiding catalog price.

***

By combining **Hide Price & Add to Cart** with **B2B Lock** and **custom pricing**, you can design a flexible B2B experience where:

* The right customers see the right products
* Pricing visibility matches your strategy
* RFQ is available exactly where negotiation is needed, without breaking normal Shopify checkout flows.
