Challenges

With over 20 years of operation, the client has built a loyal base of B2B customers, particularly enterprises that rely on stock photos on a daily basis. In addition to their stock photo websites for B2C buyers, the client aimed to develop a separate website specifically for their B2B buyers. This would enhance the buying experience, increase sales from existing customers, and attract new corporate clients online.

Solution

eCommerce website with B2B features

Rikkeisoft created a new eCommerce website based on their existing B2C websites, leveraging their proven designs, code logics, and framework. However, we refined every aspect of the website to cater to the needs of B2B buyers, introducing the following key features:

A B2B-oriented UI/UX design
An advanced search engine to efficiently filter a large number of stock photos
A credit system for corporate members and departments to pay for each downloaded photo
Custom B2B invoicing and payment options
Bulk download capabilities

AWS and Next.js for speed and ease of use

To ensure seamless data synchronization and system integration with their existing systems on AWS, we deployed the new B2B website on the same platform. Additionally, we suggested utilizing Next.js for frontend development, resulting in improved website speed specifically for this use case.
