Buying guide
Where can a store buy wholesale Pokémon cards?
Licensed resellers can buy wholesale Pokémon booster boxes from The Card Supplier: Japanese and Simplified-Chinese boxes, with no minimum order. You apply with your seller's permit, see wholesale pricing once you're approved, and order from your phone.
What you need to buy
A valid seller's permit (also called a resale certificate or sales tax permit, depending on your state) and a signed resale certificate. We sell only to businesses that resell, so retail stores, card shops, convenience stores and online sellers all qualify.
What you can buy
Japanese Pokémon booster boxes and high class packs from current sets, and Simplified-Chinese boxes including the Pokémon 151 waves and Gem Packs. These are Japanese- and Chinese-language cards.
What it costs
Wholesale pricing is shown to approved accounts. Every box displays a suggested retail price per pack and your profit per box, so you can see your margin before you order.

Japanese and Chinese orders close each Sunday at 8:00 PM Pacific. We confirm, email your invoice, and orders take about two weeks, with tracking on every shipment.

Common questions
Where can a small store buy wholesale Pokémon cards?
From a distributor that sells to licensed resellers. The Card Supplier has no minimum order, so a small store can start with a single box. You apply online with your seller's permit, and a person reviews every application.
Are these English Pokémon cards?
No. These are Japanese-language and Simplified-Chinese Pokémon cards. They are popular with collectors and players, and they sell well by the pack. Make sure your customers want them before you stock up.
Can I buy Pokémon cards wholesale without a business?
No. We sell only to businesses that resell, so you need a valid seller's permit or resale certificate to open an account.
Can I sell the packs individually?
Yes. Many stores sell by the pack. Each product page shows a suggested price per pack and your profit per box when you do.
Do I need a seller's permit or resale certificate to buy wholesale?
Yes. We sell only to businesses that resell. You upload your seller's or reseller permit when you apply and sign an electronic resale certificate once. Because the product is for resale, we don't charge sales tax on your orders.
Is there a minimum order?
No. There is no order minimum and you can buy a single box. If you want a full opening order, our $1,000 and $2,000 starter bundles are priced below buying the same products separately.
How do I pay?
After we confirm your order, we email an invoice you can pay by card or by bank transfer (ACH), due within seven days. Processing fees are shown before you place the order.
