From browse to booked — in your customer's hands.

Every product shows real on-hand quantity and each customer’s negotiated pricing, straight from your database.

Wired to your database
Orders flow straight into Fishbowl, Katana or Cin7. One source of truth, always in sync.
For 3PL providers

Running a 3PL? Vortex bills for it, too.

The same ordering portal — purpose-built for third-party logistics. Give every client a branded storefront where their own customers order, and let Vortex handle the monthly billing automatically.

Auto-billing on autopilot
Take the hassle out of monthly billing. Four built-in billing and report types for storage, handling and fulfillment — all fully customizable.
Your clients' customers order too
Put your business on your clients' devices. They log in and place orders for their customers — and every order flows straight into your database.
Controlled access & punch-out
Decide exactly what inventory each client can see and order, with dedicated "punch-out" sites and shop-by-category storefronts per account.

Give your customers a storefront.

We'll spin up Vortex on your catalog so you can see your own products, stock and pricing in a live B2B portal.
