This page details our wholesale policies, volume pricing architecture, fulfillment options, and operational guarantees for buyers who need wallets at scale.
Wholesale & Bulk Order Policies
Our wholesale program is designed for buyers who need reliable supply at volume, with terms and service levels that match the expectations of U.S. retail and e-commerce operations.
Wholesale Eligibility & Account Setup
Wholesale accounts are available to verified businesses with valid EIN or resale certificate. Account setup requires completion of a credit application (for Net terms) or prepayment arrangement. Once approved, you receive access to wholesale pricing sheets, real-time inventory status, and dedicated account management.
Minimum Order Quantities for Wholesale
- Standard wholesale: 500 units per SKU
- Mixed-SKU wholesale: 1,000 units total across 3+ SKUs (minimum 200 per SKU)
- Container-load orders: 5,000+ units with optimized freight economics
- Annual contract buyers: Custom MOQs negotiated based on forecasted volume
Product Availability & Catalog Access
Wholesale buyers have access to our full catalog including private label platforms, ODM platforms, and selected OEM designs (where the original client has authorized wholesale distribution). New designs are added quarterly based on market trends and client feedback.
Volume Pricing Model
Our wholesale pricing is structured in transparent tiers that reward volume commitment and reduce per-unit cost through production efficiency gains.
Tiered Pricing Example: Aluminum Minimalist Card Holder
The following table illustrates how unit pricing decreases as order volume increases. This example uses a standard aluminum card holder with laser-engraved logo and kraft box packaging.
| Order Volume (Units) | Unit Price (USD) | Total Order Value (USD) | Price Reduction vs. Base | Est. Retail at 4× Markup |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 100 (Private Label Entry) | $12.50 | $1,250 | Base | $50.00 |
| 300 (ODM Minimum) | $10.80 | $3,240 | -13.6% | $43.20 |
| 500 (Wholesale Entry) | $9.50 | $4,750 | -24.0% | $38.00 |
| 1,000 | $8.20 | $8,200 | -34.4% | $32.80 |
| 3,000 | $7.10 | $21,300 | -43.2% | $28.40 |
| 5,000 | $6.40 | $32,000 | -48.8% | $25.60 |
| 10,000 | $5.80 | $58,000 | -53.6% | $23.20 |
| 25,000+ (Annual Contract) | $5.20 | $130,000+ | -58.4% | $20.80 |
Pricing Factors Beyond Volume
Unit pricing is also affected by: material tier (genuine leather vs. full-grain), customization complexity (multi-color print vs. single laser engrave), packaging specification (polybag vs. magnetic gift box), and seasonal demand (Q4 peak surcharges may apply). Your account manager provides itemized quotations that break down each cost driver.
Annual Contract Pricing
For buyers who can commit to quarterly or annual volume forecasts, we offer contract pricing with additional benefits: fixed unit rates for 12 months (protecting against material cost fluctuations), reserved production capacity, priority sampling, and quarterly business reviews with our operations director.
Inventory & Customization Hybrid Models
Many wholesale buyers need a blended strategy: fast-replenishment standard SKUs alongside periodic custom runs for seasonal or exclusive releases.
Standard SKU Buffer Stock
For your high-velocity wallet SKUs, we maintain buffer inventory in our warehouse ready for immediate dispatch. Buffer programs require a monthly minimum commitment (typically 1,000+ units per SKU) and enable 7-day replenishment instead of 25–30 day production cycles.
Seasonal Custom Runs
Plan seasonal editions (holiday colors, limited materials, co-branded packaging) as scheduled custom production runs. These runs integrate into your annual contract volume and receive the same tiered pricing benefits. Typical seasonal lead time: 30–45 days from specification lock.
Mixed-Container Fulfillment
For buyers managing diverse product lines, we support mixed-SKU container loads. A single 40-foot container can hold 8,000–12,000 wallet units across 10–20 SKUs, optimizing freight cost per unit and simplifying inbound logistics.
Logistics & Shipping Solutions
Wholesale logistics requires precision. We offer multiple Incoterms and freight modes to match your cash-flow, timeline, and inventory positioning preferences.
Incoterms Available
- EXW (Ex Works): You arrange all freight and customs. Lowest factory price; maximum buyer control.
- FOB Shenzhen: We deliver to the port and handle export clearance. You manage ocean freight, insurance, and U.S. import.
- CIF (Cost, Insurance & Freight): We arrange ocean freight to your destination port. You handle U.S. customs clearance and final delivery.
- DDP (Delivered Duty Paid): We manage the entire chain: factory → U.S. warehouse. You receive a single landed cost with no customs surprises.
Freight Modes & Transit Benchmarks
| Freight Mode | Transit Time to U.S. West Coast | Transit Time to U.S. East Coast | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| Air Freight (Express) | 3–5 days | 5–7 days | Urgent replenishment, high-value SKUs, product launches |
| Air Freight (Economy) | 7–10 days | 10–14 days | Mid-urgency restock, seasonal prep |
| Ocean FCL (Full Container Load) | 14–18 days | 24–28 days | High-volume replenishment, lowest per-unit freight cost |
| Ocean LCL (Less than Container Load) | 18–25 days | 28–35 days | Lower-volume buyers not filling a full container |
| Sea-Air Combination | 12–16 days | 18–22 days | Balance of cost and speed for mid-volume orders |
U.S. Warehouse & Fulfillment Integration
For DDP clients, we can deliver directly to Amazon FBA warehouses, third-party logistics (3PL) providers, or your own U.S. distribution center. We are experienced with Amazon’s inbound requirements: carton labeling, pallet configuration, weight limits, and suffocation warning polybagging.
Delivery Commitments & Lead Time Guarantees
Reliable delivery is a competitive necessity. Our operational systems are designed to meet or exceed stated timelines, with contingency protocols for disruption.
Standard Lead Time Commitments
- Private label wholesale (in-stock platforms): 14–21 days
- ODM wholesale (customized platforms): 30–35 days
- OEM wholesale (custom tooling): 45–55 days
- Repeat orders (no changes): 25–30 days
- Buffer stock replenishment: 7 days
Peak Season Planning
Q3–Q4 represents 60% of annual U.S. wallet demand. We recommend placing holiday-season orders by August 1 to secure production slots and ocean freight capacity. Clients with annual contracts receive automatic capacity reservation during peak periods.
Delay Remediation
In the rare event of a production delay (historically <4% of orders), we notify clients immediately with revised ETAs and mitigation options: partial air freight upgrade at our cost, expedited rework, or credit against future orders. Our on-time delivery rate across 2023–2024 was 96.4%.
Return, Replacement & Reorder Policies
Wholesale relationships require clear post-sale frameworks. Our policies balance buyer protection with operational practicality.
Defective Unit Replacement
If your quality inspection identifies defective units exceeding AQL 2.5 thresholds, we replace them at our expense. Submit a defect report with photos and quantities within 14 days of receipt. Replacements ship with your next order or via express if timing-critical.
Wrong-SKU or Mis-Shipment Resolution
Errors in SKU configuration, color mix, or carton labeling are resolved with immediate replacement shipment and return freight label for incorrect goods. These events are rare (below 0.5% of shipments) but addressed with urgency when they occur.
Reorder Process
Reorder placement is streamlined: email or portal submission with SKU/quantity, confirmation within 24 hours, and production scheduling within 48 hours. Repeat orders bypass sample approval and DFM review (unless you request changes), compressing lead times by 10–15 days.
Order Modification Window
Orders can be modified (quantity increase/decrease, color mix adjustment, shipping address change) within 5 days of production start without penalty. After 5 days, modifications may incur material restocking or schedule adjustment fees.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the minimum order for wholesale wallets?
Standard wholesale MOQ is 500 units per SKU. Mixed-SKU orders qualify at 1,000 units total (200 per SKU minimum). Annual contract clients may negotiate custom MOQs based on forecasted volume.
How does your volume pricing work?
Unit pricing decreases in tiers: 500 units, 1,000 units, 3,000 units, 5,000 units, 10,000 units, and 25,000+ units. The exact rate depends on material, customization, and packaging. Your account manager provides an itemized quotation.
Can I mix standard and custom wallets in one order?
Yes. Many wholesale buyers run a “core + seasonal” strategy: high-volume standard SKUs for continuous replenishment and smaller custom runs for limited editions. Both count toward your annual contract volume.
What shipping terms do you offer?
We offer EXW, FOB Shenzhen, CIF, and DDP. DDP is most popular with U.S. buyers because it delivers a fully landed cost with no customs, duty, or freight surprises. We also support direct-to-Amazon FBA delivery.
How do you handle holiday season demand?
We recommend placing Q4 orders by August 1. Annual contract clients receive automatic capacity reservation. We also offer buffer stock programs for 7-day emergency replenishment during peak selling periods.
What is your policy on defective units?
We replace confirmed defective units at our cost. Report defects with photo documentation within 14 days of receipt. Our rolling defect rate is below 1.2%, and we maintain full lot traceability for root-cause analysis.
Can I get credit terms?
Credit terms are available to established wholesale clients. New clients start with 50% deposit / 50% before shipment. After three completed orders with on-time payment, Net 15 terms are available. Net 30 is available after five completed orders.
How do I place a reorder?
Reorders are fast: submit SKU and quantity via email or client portal, receive confirmation within 24 hours, and production begins within 48 hours. Repeat orders skip sampling and DFM, reducing lead time to 25–30 days.
