TierCommerce vs B2B Wave
The B2B Wave alternative built for Australian and New Zealand wholesalers
B2B Wave is a wholesale ordering portal with published monthly pricing, a 14-day free trial, offices in Toronto and London, and integrations for Xero, QuickBooks, Sage, Cin7 Core and others. TierCommerce is built for Australian and New Zealand wholesalers, with native two-way integrations for MYOB, Pronto Xi, Options ERP and Xero, GST shown the way each customer needs it, and customer data hosted in Sydney.
The short answer
Choose TierCommerce if you run MYOB, Pronto Xi, Options ERP, Xero or another system common in Australia and New Zealand, and you want AI order entry, PunchOut and local support from an Australian team. Choose B2B Wave if you’re a smaller wholesaler on Xero, QuickBooks or Sage who wants to sign up yourself, start with a free trial and pay a flat monthly price, or your reps need an offline ordering app.

Why wholesalers choose TierCommerce over B2B Wave
-
Native to the systems you already run
TierCommerce connects natively to MYOB, Pronto Xi, Options ERP, Xero, NetSuite, Business Central, Cin7, Unleashed and Katana MRP. Each integration is two-way and live, built and maintained by our own team, and every sync is logged so you can see what moved and replay it.
-
Custom fields without a bespoke build
Add custom fields, extra line items such as installation, and next-shipment dates from the platform itself, and use the extension SDK for anything more. When you need custom work, our implementation partner takes it on.
-
AI co-workers with an exception queue
The Order Entry co-worker turns emailed and PDF POs into ERP sales orders and shows a confidence level for each one, so anything unclear lands in an exception queue for your team. Quoting, Buyer Assistant, Sales Copilot, Accounts and Catalogue co-workers cover the rest, and buyers’ AI agents can order through our MCP server.
-
GST, local support and Sydney hosting
Show prices inclusive or exclusive of GST for each customer, and let accounts-payable users pay invoices and statements online. You work with an Australian team, customer data is hosted in Sydney, and our onboarding programme is built to get you live in about 30 days.
When B2B Wave might suit you better
B2B Wave is a good product. It can be the better choice if:
- You’re a smaller wholesaler who wants to sign up yourself, start with a 14-day free trial, and pay a flat published monthly price that doesn’t change with the number of customers ordering online.
- You run QuickBooks, Sage 50 or 200, Brightpearl, Fishbowl, Linnworks or Zoho Inventory, which are on B2B Wave’s integrations list.
- Your sales reps need an iOS and Android ordering app that works offline.

TierCommerce vs B2B Wave questions
Is TierCommerce a good B2B Wave alternative?
Yes, if you trade in Australia or New Zealand and run a system such as MYOB, Pronto Xi, Options ERP or Xero. TierCommerce covers customer pricing, quotes, approvals, online invoice payments, PunchOut and AI order entry, with GST per customer and Sydney hosting. If you’re a smaller wholesaler on Xero, QuickBooks or Sage who wants a self-serve portal with a free trial, B2B Wave may suit you better.
Can I move from B2B Wave to TierCommerce?
Yes. Your ERP stays your source of truth, so we connect TierCommerce to it and bring your products, customer pricing and stock across from there. We then set up your customers, users, approvals and PunchOut connections, and our onboarding programme is built to get you live in about 30 days.
How does TierCommerce pricing compare with B2B Wave?
TierCommerce’s Essentials plan starts from A$500 a month and Professional from A$1,500, excluding GST, priced on the trade accounts that actually order online. We’ll quote Enterprise for your setup after a demo. B2B Wave publishes its pricing: Australian and New Zealand visitors see Pro at A$550 and Scale at A$962 a month, with 50% off the first three months, unlimited customers and orders, and no transaction fees. Pro includes 20,000 products, 10 users and 20 price lists, and extra users, products, price lists and premium integrations are priced on request. B2B Wave doesn’t say whether its Australian prices include GST, so check with B2B Wave.
Does B2B Wave integrate with MYOB, Pronto or Xero?
B2B Wave integrates natively with Xero on every plan, and it’s listed on the Xero App Store. MYOB, Pronto and Options ERP aren’t listed on its integrations page. B2B Wave also offers an API and a Zapier integration for other systems. TierCommerce integrates with all four natively.
Can both platforms turn emailed POs into orders?
B2B Wave doesn’t publish an AI order entry feature. Its MCP server gives AI tools such as Claude or ChatGPT read-only access to your orders, products, prices and customers by default. TierCommerce’s Order Entry co-worker turns emailed and PDF POs into ERP sales orders, shows a confidence level for each one and sends anything unclear to an exception queue.
Does B2B Wave have an Australian office?
No Australian office is listed. B2B Wave lists offices in Toronto and London and an Asia Pacific reseller in Christchurch, New Zealand, and it doesn’t publish where customer data is hosted. TierCommerce has an Australian team and hosts customer data in Sydney.
