Connect your Existing E-commerce Website to PrintPLANR
No Website Rebuild Required - Just Secure API Integration
One ordering platform, built for B2B workflows
The B2B portal acts as a dedicated ordering system for corporate clients. Customers log in to see only what is relevant to them: approved products, pricing, and workflows—while all activity flows directly into the PrintPLANR MIS.

Operational Benefits of Real-Time
Print MIS Integration
Without Web2Print, print teams spend a lot of time on manual work-entering orders, confirming specifications, sharing proofs, and answering status queries. This slows down operations and increases the chance of errors.
With integration in place:
- Admin workload reduces significantly
- Order processing time decreases
- Production starts faster
- Error rates drop
- Customer transparency improves
- Teams operate from a single source of truth
Your website remains your selling platform. PrintPLANR becomes your operational control center.
Real-Time Two-Way Communication
Integration is not limited to order intake. As the job progresses through stages such as prepress, printing, finishing, and dispatch, PrintPLANR sends status updates back to your website in real time.
This allows:
- Customers to track order progress
- Automated email notifications
- Dispatch and tracking details to be shared
- Reduced status inquiry calls
- Better transparency without additional admin work
Your team can also send notifications directly from PrintPLANR when needed.
