What It Is

Katalog Pricelists is an online wholesale price list tool designed for small sellers, boutiques, bulk buyers, and wholesale teams. Its core purpose is not to build storefronts or process transactions, but to turn the wholesale ordering workflow—often handled through email attachments and multiple Excel versions—into a shareable, updateable online price list link.

Core Features

Based on the available description, Katalog supports three ways to create a price list: pasting a Shopify URL to pull in a product catalog, uploading a CSV/Excel file, or manually entering product rows. Users can select products, enter purchase quantities, adjust supplier discounts, and the system updates totals in real time while saving versions. Once finished, users can generate a read-only link for suppliers to view without logging in. XLSX export is also available when a traditional spreadsheet workflow is needed.

Pricing and Fees

Its basic features are clearly marked as free, including Shopify import, CSV upload, manual entry, shareable read-only links, XLSX export, and unlimited orders on every tier. The paid feature is Pro AI enrichment, priced at $12/month, which uses AI to clean supplier PDFs and photos into price lists and extract images, SKUs, prices, and other information.

Pros and Cons

The main advantages are its clear positioning and short onboarding path, making it especially suitable for teams still dealing with chaotic files like “final_v3_FINAL.xlsx.” Replacing attachments with links also helps reduce version confusion. Another highlight is that the free core feature set is fairly complete, with AI offered only as an enhancement. The limitations are also clear: the main content does not mention payment collection, logistics fulfillment, inventory sync, order status tracking, permission management, or customer support SLAs, so it should not be viewed as a full e-commerce platform or wholesale transaction system.

Who It’s For

It is better suited to boutiques, small purchasing teams, wholesale buyers, and merchants that communicate frequently with suppliers but still rely on spreadsheet-based workflows. If a seller needs storefront building, cross-border logistics, payment gateways, or marketplace traffic, Katalog does not directly cover those needs.

China Access and Alternatives

The page does not disclose whether it supports access from mainland China, a Chinese interface, or local payment methods, so china_access can only be considered unknown. Chinese sellers who only need spreadsheet collaboration may consider Airtable, Google Sheets, Notion, Zoho Sheet, or continue using Excel/CSV. For Shopify-based product management, they can also work directly with Shopify’s built-in export workflow.
