Who uses Sami B2B Lock, Password Protect?

Sami B2B Lock stores are larger and more established than average. About 26% of them run Shopify Plus, nearly 6x the Shopify-wide rate. Selling to trade customers alongside retail often comes with a bigger operation, and Shopify Plus includes its own B2B features, so many of these brands are layering extra control on top of a Plus setup.

The median Sami B2B Lock store lists 101 products and runs 12 apps. That is a mid-sized catalog where some products or prices should only be visible to approved buyers: wholesale price lists, trade-only ranges, members-only collections or pre-launch pages.

69% of Sami B2B Lock stores are outside the United States. The US accounts for 31%, followed by the United Kingdom at 10%, Australia at almost 10%, Germany at 9% and Canada at about 4%. Japan, at almost 4%, is an unusual entry in the top six and points to a following among Japanese merchants.

By category, business and industrial stores lead at about 19%, the classic wholesale and trade supply segment. Fashion follows at 12%, then general shopping at 7% and food and drink at 6%. Fashion and food brands often sell to retailers and cafes as well as consumers, and need a way to show different prices to each.

The strongest pairings are other apps from the same developer. Sami B2B Wholesale Pricing and Sami AI Product Labels both appear on Sami B2B Lock stores many times more often than on the average Shopify store. The lock app and the wholesale pricing app are designed to work together: one controls who can see what, the other sets the prices approved buyers pay.

Beyond the Samita family, SC Product Options appears 4.1x more often, Klarna on-site messaging and Globo Product Options 3.8x more often each, and the Hulk contact form builder 3.4x more often. Contact forms are a common way to collect wholesale account applications, and product options apps handle the custom configurations that trade orders often need.

Sami B2B Lock vs BSS B2B Lock

BSS B2B Lock, Login & Password is the next most reviewed app in the group, with 661 App Store reviews against Sami's 987. It covers the same job of locking pages, prices and products behind a login or password. Both developers also make wholesale pricing apps, so the choice often follows which suite a merchant already uses.

Sami B2B Lock vs Locksmith

Locksmith is a long-standing access control app with 307 App Store reviews. It is known for flexible lock rules, including passcodes, customer tags and location, and is often used for members-only and pre-launch content as well as wholesale.

Sami B2B Lock vs Helium Customer Fields

Helium Customer Fields (354 reviews) solves a related problem: custom registration forms and customer data, which many stores use to collect wholesale applications before granting access. It is often a complement to a lock app rather than a replacement.

Other options

Wholesale Lock Manager, Ymq B2B & Wholesale Solution and Oxi Login are other options. Stores on Shopify Plus can also use Shopify's built-in B2B features for company accounts and price lists.

Sami B2B Lock has a free plan, then paid plans at $9.99, $19.99 and $29.99 a month. The paid plans are named after Shopify's own plans (Basic, Grow and Advanced), which suggests pricing follows the merchant's Shopify plan; check the listing for which applies to your store.
