Question 1

How do I list my company on WholesaleUp™?

Accepted Answer

Supplier accounts are available by invitation or by subscribing to [Supplier Pro](/pro). If you’ve received an invitation, follow the link in your email to set up your profile. Otherwise, you can [subscribe to Supplier Pro](/pro) for immediate access with priority placement, unlimited deals, and full analytics — or [contact us](/contact) with “Listing My Company” as the query type to request an invitation.

Question 2

Is there a fee to be listed as a supplier?

Accepted Answer

Supplier Free listings are by invitation only. If you haven't received an invitation, you can [contact us](/contact) to express interest or [upgrade to Supplier Pro](/pro) for immediate listing with the PRO badge, priority placement on deal-rank/sort ties, visibility to all logged-in users, and unlimited deal listings.

Question 3

What are the requirements to be listed?

Accepted Answer

A valid company registration, a professional website, and the ability to supply at genuine wholesale prices. Suppliers of **branded goods** must also be able to prove authenticity on request — via a **sanitized invoice** tracing stock to the brand, or a direct **Letter of Authorization (LOA)**. [Brand Owners](/help/faq?q=supplier-types-choice) self-authorize; sellers of unbranded or own-brand goods can substitute manufacturing paperwork. See the [branded-goods authenticity policy](/help/faq?q=branded-goods-authenticity).

Question 4

How long does the listing review take?

Accepted Answer

Verification typically takes 1–3 business days. You'll receive an email notification once your application is approved or if additional information is needed. Supplier Pro applications are prioritised.

Question 5

What supplier type should I choose?

Accepted Answer

Pick one or more that describe your business — you can select multiple.

**Production & ownership**
• Manufacturer — you produce goods directly
• Brand Owner — you own the brand and sell your own range
• Private Label / White Label — you manufacture to a customer's spec

**Distribution**
• Wholesaler — you sell in bulk at trade prices
• Distributor — you have authorized distribution rights for a brand
• Importer — you bring goods in from overseas and resell
• Exporter — you sell to buyers outside your country
• Trading Company — you buy and resell across markets

**Specialist / fulfilment**
• Liquidator / Clearance — surplus, returns, or overstock at discount
• Dropshipper — you ship directly to the buyer's customer
• Sourcing Agent — you help buyers find and negotiate with factories
• Artisan / Maker — handmade or small-batch goods

Selecting only the types that match your real activity boosts your match rate on buyer searches — don't over-select.

Question 6

How does WholesaleUp™ verify that branded goods are authentic?

Accepted Answer

Suppliers of **branded goods** must prove authenticity on request — via a **sanitized invoice** tracing stock back to the brand (pricing can be redacted; SKU / brand / chain of ownership must remain visible), or a direct **Letter of Authorization (LOA)** from the brand. **[Brand Owners](/help/faq?q=supplier-types-choice)** self-authorize; **Manufacturers, Private Label / White Label, and Artisan** sellers of unbranded or own-brand goods can substitute manufacturing paperwork. A **72-hour SLA** applies to platform audit requests; non-compliance triggers delisting, Verified badge revocation, and — for [Supplier Pro](/pro) members — prorated balance forfeiture. See [Proving authenticity as a supplier](/help/guides/proving-authenticity-as-a-supplier) (supplier workflow) and [Spotting counterfeit goods](/help/guides/spotting-counterfeit-goods) (buyer checklist).

**Amazon sellers:** the sanitized invoice / LOA proves the supplier is an authorized source — but for ungating you'll submit **your own purchase invoice** from them (unredacted, ≥10 units, your Seller Central business name & address, dated within 90–180 days). See [Amazon ungating with WholesaleUp™ suppliers](/help/guides/amazon-ungating-with-wholesaleup-suppliers).
