SparkLayer vs Zoey

A Zoey alternative that skips the replatform.

SparkLayer gives wholesale brands a complete B2B portal on the store they already run — no migration, no rebuild, and no requirement to abandon the platform your team already knows. Zoey offers similar B2B depth, but as a standalone platform that requires a full replatform to access it.

SparkLayer versus Zoey

Why wholesale brands choose SparkLayer over Zoey

Zoey is a capable standalone B2B platform. The difference is what it costs to get there — a migration, a rebuild, and a $600/month starting price. Here is where SparkLayer takes a different route.

  • SparkLayer Benefits

    No replatform required.

    Zoey is a standalone B2B platform. Moving to Zoey means leaving your existing store, migrating your catalogues, rebuilding your buyer experience, and retraining your team. SparkLayer layers directly onto the store you already run on Shopify, BigCommerce, Wix, or WooCommerce. Your existing products, checkout, and retail setup remain untouched, and most brands are live within a day.

  • SparkLayer Benefits

    A free plan with no subscription required.

    Zoey starts at $600/month on its Starter plan with no free platform plan and no self-serve trial. A DIY setup route is available at no extra cost but still requires the $600/month subscription, with no support or guided onboarding. SparkLayer has a free Basic plan with no monthly fee, no time limit, and no credit card required — and paid plans from $49/month with a 14-day free trial. Free onboarding is included on every plan.

  • SparkLayer Benefits

    Enterprise B2B features without enterprise complexity.

    SparkLayer is built for wholesale operations of real complexity. The 3,500+ brands running SparkLayer include distributors, manufacturers, and multi-channel brands managing sales teams, negotiated pricing, and ERP-connected fulfilment at scale. That includes a Sales Agent Portal, a Quoting Engine for end-to-end RFQ workflows, an AI Intelligent Cart, and a dedicated Discount Engine — built in, not bolted on.

  • SparkLayer Benefits

    Works on any platform.

    Zoey is a standalone platform — to use it, you leave your existing store entirely. SparkLayer works on Shopify, BigCommerce, Wix, and WooCommerce, and SparkLayer Ignite extends the same B2B experience to any website or custom platform. See the 3,500+ brands already running wholesale on their existing stores.

Choosing between Zoey and SparkLayer comes down to this: replatform your business onto a standalone system, or layer a complete B2B platform onto the store you already run.

When Zoey might be the right fit

If you are replatforming anyway and want a single standalone system that replaces your storefront outright — or your reps depend on a dedicated native app with offline ordering at venues with no connectivity — Zoey is worth evaluating on its own terms. SparkLayer is the better fit when you want to keep the store you already run.
