What is a Wholesale Application Form?

A wholesale application form screens businesses seeking wholesale pricing and terms. It collects business credentials, order volume estimates, and payment preferences.

Wholesale relationships require verification. Tax ID, business type, and online presence help validate legitimate retail operations.

Volume estimates and payment preferences help structure appropriate terms and assess account potential.
