If you already have or expect to have wholesale suppliers not on Periva yet, you can invite them to Periva as Creators and send them your Referral code. They can quickly set up their stores and products, marking them as ‘Wholesale’ - making them visible to you (you must be in their delivery/pickup/shipping areas).  

All transactions between you and the Creators (and consumers) you invite will incur no Periva fee forever if they use your Referral code at sign up. Learn more about this on the Fee and the Wallet guides. 

Wholesale products are available only to accounts that have a seller role turned on.
