Most suppliers take B2B orders in one of three ways. Here's what each one costs you, and what changes when your buyers order from your own store.
Orders in chats, stock in a sheet, payments in screenshots.

Hyprknot is for suppliers selling to other businesses: wholesale clients, retailers, resellers and dropshippers.
A marketplace brings buyers to you. Hyprknot doesn't: it's your own store for the buyers you already have and the ones you bring in.
If you don't sell to other businesses, a consumer store builder fits better. Hyprknot is built for wholesale clients, retailers and resellers.
Hyprknot issues GST invoices and credit notes, but it isn't accounting software. Keep your accountant's tools for books and returns.
Hyprknot is a B2B commerce platform for suppliers: your own branded store where buyers order, and one app for orders, stock and payments.

No. Hyprknot gives each supplier their own branded store. Your buyers order from you only, never see other suppliers, and pay into your own gateway account.
A store your buyers can order from themselves. With Hyprknot, buyers see your prices and stock, order and pay from their wallet, and every order lands in one list for you to accept, pack and ship.
Order and inventory software runs your back office. Hyprknot does that too, and adds the branded store where your buyers order, plus buyer wallets, credit, returns and GST invoices.
Yes. Hyprknot is for your own buyers. Many suppliers use a marketplace to find new buyers and their own store for the buyers who order again.
No. Your store opens in any browser at your own address. Buyers sign up, submit KYC and order from there.
Yes. Resellers connect their Shopify store and add your products at their own price. Their orders come to you already paid, and the tracking goes back into their Shopify order.
Let buyers order from your own store. We're launching soon: join the early access list.
