Why a B2B ordering portal makes sense for Aveiro
Aveiro is a municipality in centro, portugal, home to about 78,000 people, and one of the markets in Portugal where we build B2B and wholesale portals.
Key sectors include telecom research and manufacturing, with business districts such as the city centre.
Logistics are supported by Port of Aveiro, which matters when you promise customers fast delivery.
Portugal has SMEs make up 99% of all businesses in the European Union (European Commission). Portugal's shoppers rely on MB WAY and Multibanco, which many foreign stores do not offer. Portuguese content and island delivery rules help local brands win.
That is why more companies in Aveiro are moving from phone, WhatsApp and spreadsheet orders to a proper B2B ordering portal — one place where products, prices, payments, orders and customers are managed together.
Local details we build into every Aveiro project
A store that works in Aveiro respects local habits as well as local law. These are the details we configure first.
Currency and pricing
Prices, taxes, shipping and refunds are shown in euro (EUR), formatted the way Aveiro customers read them.
Language and content
Storefront copy, product pages and emails can run in Portuguese, with local date and number formats.
Local trust signals
Trust is local: familiar names such as MB WAY and Multibanco references and CTT sit next to the buy button.
Domain, phone and contact
A .pt domain (or your own) builds local trust and search relevance. Contact buttons are pre-set with +351, so a customer in Aveiro taps once to call or message.
Talent and partners nearby
Aveiro draws on University of Aveiro, which means plenty of local staff, interns and technology partners to run the store after launch.
Designed to your requirements, not a template
Whatever your business sells in Aveiro, N&T Software designs and develops the B2B ordering portal and the matching mobile app exactly to your requirements — your catalogue, your prices, your payment and delivery rules.
In Aveiro we typically work with wholesalers, FMCG distributors, industrial suppliers and electrical and hardware traders, and with sellers in categories such as fashion, electronics, home and beauty that have strong online demand in Portugal.
Before any commitment you get a free requirements meeting, a demo built on your use case and a proposal priced to your budget.
Core modules we build for Aveiro clients
These are the building blocks of a B2B ordering portal. We scope them with you, so you pay for what your Aveiro operation needs.
Business accounts
Registration, KYC and approval, company hierarchies, branches, buyers and approvers with their own permissions. Catalogues come in from spreadsheets, ERP exports or supplier feeds, so your Aveiro team keeps its current way of working.
Contract pricing
Price lists by customer, group or territory, quantity slabs, pack sizes, minimum order values and negotiated rates. Payment steps are built around MB WAY, Multibanco references and Visa and Mastercard, the options shoppers here already trust.
Quick and bulk ordering
SKU-code entry, spreadsheet upload, saved lists, re-order from history and scheduled repeat orders. Couriers such as CTT, DPD Portugal and GLS plug in alongside your own fleet for Aveiro orders.
Quotes and approvals
Request-for-quotation, counter-offers, purchase-order upload and multi-level approval before submission. Inventory can sit in Aveiro, in a partner warehouse or across Portugal, with click-and-collect where customers want it.
Credit and payments
Online payment, credit limits, pay-later terms, outstanding statements and payment reminders where approved. Dashboards break sales down by product, customer and neighbourhood of Aveiro, so you see what to promote.
Sales-team tools
Order on behalf of customers, territory assignment, visit notes and performance dashboards for representatives. Pages, search filters and wording are tuned to how people in Aveiro look for products, in Portuguese if your audience needs it.
Getting paid online in Aveiro
A B2B ordering portal for Aveiro must support the way people here actually pay: MB WAY, Multibanco references, Visa and Mastercard, PayPal and Apple Pay.
Provider approval, settlement time and fees differ by business type, so we shortlist gateways with you, then wire up status updates, refunds and reconciliation in EUR — card details stay with the provider.
Business buyers around the city centre often want invoices or bank transfer, while consumers lean on MB WAY. We support both flows.
- MB WAY
- PayPal
- Apple Pay
- Multibanco references
- Visa and Mastercard
Fulfilment options for Aveiro orders
Your B2B ordering portal can book shipments and share tracking with CTT, DPD Portugal, GLS, MRW and Nacex, or route orders to your own riders and stores across Aveiro.
Delivery rules can price by distance, weight, postcode or zone, offer same-day slots in dense areas, and switch on pickup points or click-and-collect where customers prefer them.
Connectivity in the area — Port of Aveiro — makes regional and national dispatch from Aveiro practical.
Rules Aveiro sellers must respect online
On tax: Portuguese IVA is 23% standard on the mainland with 13% and 6% reduced rates (lower rates in Madeira and the Azores).
Customer data is handled with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the ePrivacy rules on cookies and marketing consent, enforced by the CNPD in mind, and the storefront follows the EU Consumer Rights Directive (14-day withdrawal right), the Digital Services Act and, from June 2025, the European Accessibility Act for online shops and Decree-Law 24/2014 on distance contracts.
We build the technical controls — tax-inclusive pricing, compliant invoices, consent banners, terms and return pages, data-access roles and audit logs. We are not a law firm, so final legal and tax positions should be confirmed with your own adviser in Portugal.
Your own store alongside Worten and Amazon.es
For a Aveiro business, Worten, Amazon.es, Fnac Portugal and OLX are useful shop windows — but fees, ranking changes and shared customer data limit how far you can grow on them alone.
With your own B2B ordering portal you keep the customer data, set the offers and the packaging, and still push stock to marketplaces from a single admin.
Industries in Aveiro we work with
Popular online categories in Portugal include fashion, electronics, home, beauty, food and wine and books. Local demand in Aveiro is shaped by telecom research and manufacturing, so we often design catalogues and B2B ordering around those sectors. In Aveiro, we most often build B2B and wholesale portals for:
Wholesalers
For wholesalers, we usually start with contract pricing, then add ERP (SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, Tally, Zoho) once orders are flowing.
FMCG distributors
Catalogue, pricing and fulfilment rules designed for FMCG distributors in Aveiro, connected to the systems you already use.
Industrial suppliers
Industrial suppliers get quick and bulk ordering plus credit and payments workflows tailored to their operations.
Electrical and hardware traders
We map how electrical and hardware traders sell today and digitise it end to end — from enquiry and order to payment, dispatch and repeat purchase.
Medical and institutional suppliers
For medical and institutional suppliers, we usually start with sales-team tools, then add credit and payment gateways once orders are flowing.
Dealer networks
Catalogue, pricing and fulfilment rules designed for dealer networks in Aveiro, connected to the systems you already use.
Add a mobile app for Aveiro customers
In Aveiro, shoppers browse on phones first. A dealer and sales-representative app lets buyers re-order in seconds, scan products, check statements and receive scheme announcements, while reps take orders at the counter even with patchy connectivity.
One backend serves the website and the apps, and the apps ship under your own Google Play and App Store accounts — so what you change once appears everywhere.
Push notifications can be timed to UTC+1 so offers reach Aveiro customers when they are awake, and the interface can run in Portuguese.
- Credit and payment gateways
- CRM and lead management
- WhatsApp and SMS notifications
- Logistics and freight partners
- Warehouse and inventory systems
- ERP (SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, Tally, Zoho)
- BI and reporting tools
- Accounting and e-invoicing
Integrations above are examples; we connect any system that offers a suitable API, database access or approved import and export process.
Launch roadmap and success metrics
We launch the journeys that create value first, then add depth. A typical roadmap for a B2B ordering portal in Aveiro:
| Phase | What goes live |
|---|---|
| Launch portal | Accounts, contract pricing, catalogue, ordering and ERP order sync. Configured for EUR, MB WAY and CTT from the start. |
| Automate | Quotes, approvals, credit, statements and notifications. |
| Expand | Dealer and sales-rep apps, analytics and new territories. Reviewed against how Aveiro customers actually buy. |
We track order-entry time, share of orders placed online, order accuracy, days sales outstanding, repeat-order frequency and sales-rep productivity on a live dashboard from day one, so Aveiro results are visible, not promised.

Our team covers UTC+1 — 4h 30m behind India (IST) — through three 8-hour shifts, so a Aveiro client always reaches someone during the local working day.
