# Shopify Plus

> Shopify Plus is the enterprise tier, with higher limits, more locations and staff, and control over parts of checkout the other plans cannot touch.

Same admin, same catalogue, bigger ceilings and a much bigger bill.

## What it adds that a stockroom feels

- Many more [locations](https://storestandards.com/glossary/shopify-location/) than the standard plans
  allow
- More staff accounts, with finer permissions
- Higher API limits, so big syncs finish faster
- Wholesale and B2B built in, instead of running trade on
  [draft orders](https://storestandards.com/glossary/draft-order/)

Everything else it adds is checkout, scripts and support.

## The honest test

Count the things you are working around. If you are out of locations, out of
staff seats, or running a real trade business on drafts, the plan is the
constraint.

If your problem is that receiving takes two hours, Plus will not touch it. That
is a process, and a cheaper app fixes it.

## Where it goes wrong

Plus gets bought to fix a data problem. Nothing about the tier improves your
[stock accuracy](https://storestandards.com/glossary/stock-accuracy/), because the counts are wrong for
reasons that happen at the delivery door.

The other one is the location limit arriving as a surprise mid-rollout. Check
what your current plan allows before you sign for shop number six, not after,
and check it again if you are opening in a new country with
