Replace Quote Button for Guests Magento 2

The replace quote button guests Magento 2 feature in Cart2Quote controls who can initiate a quote request on your storefront. When active, visitors who are not logged in see a “Login to Request Quote” prompt. Cart2Quote replaces the standard “Add to Quote” button with this message. As soon as they sign in or create an account, the full quotation workflow becomes available.

How the Replace Quote Button for Guests Works in Magento 2

When you enable this setting, Cart2Quote checks whether the current visitor is logged in. Logged-in customers see the standard “Add to Quote” button as normal. For guests, Cart2Quote replaces it with a “Login to Request Quote” label.

This prompt stays visible rather than disappearing. It tells visitors that quoting is available. It also makes clear that they need an account to proceed. Consequently, guests choose to register rather than leave the page without finding a quote option.

Why Restricting the Quote Button for Guests Makes Sense

Anonymous quote submissions create real problems for B2B sales teams. Without a verified account, your team has no reliable contact details. They also have no order history and no way to apply customer-specific pricing. Therefore, requiring login before quoting ties every request to a real, traceable customer record.

For example, a trade buyer visiting your store for the first time may not have an account yet. With this feature on, they see the login prompt and create an account. Your sales team then receives a complete contact record from the very first interaction. In contrast, anonymous submissions often contain incorrect details. As a result, your team works only with verified, accountable leads.

Benefits of Replacing the Quote Button for Guests

  • Every quote request has an account attached — reliable contact details guaranteed
  • Customer-tier pricing works correctly — Cart2Quote applies account-specific rules at login
  • Spam submissions disappear — anonymous requests no longer reach your sales team
  • Guests become registered customers — the visible prompt drives account creation
  • Cleaner CRM data — your sales team works with verified leads from the very first touch

When to Use This Feature

This feature suits wholesale and trade-only stores where pricing depends on the customer account. It also works well for businesses that connect Cart2Quote to a CRM or ERP, where you need account-linked records for every interaction.

If your store allows guest quoting, use the Allow Guest Request setting in Advanced Options instead. That setting handles guest submissions without requiring account creation first. You can also combine both approaches — show the login prompt by default, but enable guest requests through a separate form for specific customer groups.

Summary

The replace quote button for guests feature in Magento 2 protects your B2B quotation workflow. It requires visitors to log in before they can start a quote request. Because the prompt stays visible, it turns curious guests into registered customers rather than blocking them entirely. If your store uses tiered pricing or connects to a CRM, enable this feature to make sure every quote request arrives with a verified account attached.
