Quotation module - the perfect tool for ...

Wholesales, B2B type shops, niche webshops or market style e-businesses, as these cannot always or do not want to allow direct purchases, or simply for some reason is not possible to display a price and a buy now button.

Or, ANY WEBSHOP, even as small as a local store, going simply for the biggest customer satisfaction, You just want to grant customers the possibility to bargain or obtain more info about a single or a group of products.

So let’s settle a fact here: hiding a price or the cart itself, does not mean that sales are turned off!

Prestashop catalog mode turned on? Yeah baby, no problem for Ask for a Quote!

In short, yes, the module works perfectly in catalog mode. Actually, when we first developed it, it was meant to be a tool to somehow replace and mimic the shopping cart when this is not available. The quote module will display a cart, a quantity field, both on product page and product list, recognize attributes, recognize custom fields and so on. One thing however should be noticed: when catalog mode is turned on, Prestashop disables all cart related features, including ordering, so our module is not able to transform a quote to order.

Familiar look and ease of use for clients as it mimics the Prestashop shopping cart

The quoting process is very straight forward, as it copies and mimics the default cart and the order process, and blends in perfectly into Prestashop:

• adds a quote cart box in the header, or left / right column, with instant submit option if logged in (mimics shopping cart)
• adds a button to both product lists, product details page and quick view too. If enabled, it will also display a quantity icon (add to cart)
• has an overview page where clients can change the quantity and delete a product (cart details)
• animated “fly to cart effect” or confirmation pop-up (product successfully added to cart)
• submit quote page with guest, login and register options, and if already logged in, they can name their quotes and can ask to be contacted via telephone if no address is provided (cart checkout)
• they receive an email with quote details (new order)
• clients have a quotes history page (orders history), accessible from My account and footer account links to, where all past quotes are visible in detail, and if enabled, a messaging system is available
• if enabled, they can download the quote in a PDF format
• if they are happy with messaging and offer, the quote can be transformed into an order, evan by the client itself, and from this point, the normal checkout procedure takes over

So yes, it blends in perfectly into Prestashop!

Freedom for shop owner, multitude of quotation Back office options

The module perfectly blends in to the Back office too, by creating a dedicated menu entry under orders, that lists submitted quotes. Accessing the config page, displays a lot of options and triggers, giving shop owners and admins the freedom they need. Here you can:

• enable / disable guest checkout
• turn off new bargains, but keep the current ones (freeze module, but not uninstall or disable)
• turn off display of prices for all module related pages and emails (if products do have prices but hidden in front office, this comes handy)
• choose between fly to cart or pop-in confirmation
• enable submit now option if client is logged in (instant submit option)
• make T&C required and attach an existing page
• turn messaging on or off, same with rich text editor
• display or hide button and quantity field on product list and product page, with a multitude of position options on latter (hooks)
• multiple filters: display module only in selected categories, display only if product is not available for order, display only if product is out of stock
• enable or disable the PDF option, together with some personalisable fields, which allows both client and admin to downlaod the quote (always the latest version) as a PDF file
• enable or disable detection of minimum quantity
• offer types than can be sent to clients: reduction in percentage, reduction as amount, set new fixed total for the whole quote
• and of course, show owner can transform accepted offers into an order

And much more triggers and options!

This is how this all happens / quote submit steps

Similarly to the buying process, the customer places the products they are interested in into a virtual quote cart, and after filling out some text fields, asks the owner of the store for a quote. If sending is successful, both of them receive a notification, and a built-in messaging system also allows them to chat and to haggle. If both parties are content with the offer, the owner freezes the bargaining, which is transformed into an order, and the discount is deducted automatically as well.
