Description
TwinCart Request a Quote lets your customers ask for a personalised price. They add the products they are interested in to a separate quote cart, fill in their contact details and send the request. You receive it by email and reply with your offer.
It is a good fit for B2B stores, wholesalers and any shop where prices depend on quantity or on the customer.
Features
- Adds an “Add to Quote” button to simple products on shop and category pages, and to simple and variable products on the single product page.
- Also works for simple products without a price or out of stock, where the normal “Add to cart” button is not shown.
- A dedicated quote cart, separate from the WooCommerce cart, for guests and logged-in customers.
- Customers can change quantities and remove products from the quote cart.
- Quote request form with Name, Email, Phone and Additional notes. Details are pre-filled for logged-in customers.
- Each request is emailed to the site administrator with the customer details and the requested products (with variation, SKU, quantity and link). Replying to the email answers the customer directly.
- A “Quote Cart” page is created automatically on activation. On deactivation it is moved to the trash, so it disappears from your menus, and it is restored when you activate the plugin again.

FAQ
-
Does this plugin require WooCommerce?
-
Yes. WooCommerce must be installed and active for this plugin to work.
-
Where are quote requests sent?
-
To the administration email address set in Settings -> General. The email’s Reply-To is the customer’s email address, so you can answer directly.
-
I deleted the Quote Cart page. How do I get it back?
-
Deactivate and activate the plugin again and the page is recreated. You can also add the
[twincrq_quote_cart]shortcode to any page. -
What happens to the Quote Cart page when I deactivate the plugin?
-
It is moved to the trash, so visitors do not see an empty page or the raw shortcode in your menu. When you activate the plugin again, the same page is restored and published, with any changes you made to it and its place in your menus. Pages in the trash are deleted permanently by WordPress after 30 days; after that a new page is created on activation.
-
Does the quote cart affect the normal WooCommerce cart?
-
No. The quote cart is kept separately, so customers can buy some products and request a quote for others.
