Everything on this site works for a one-off unlock or IMEI check. If you place these orders every day — a repair shop, a phone reseller, or a checker site of your own — the wholesale side adds the volume tools retail customers don't need: bulk pricing, order automation, and account-level reporting.
Who this is for
- Repair shops that unlock or check phones for customers as part of the service
- Resellers who buy, unlock, and resell phones at volume
- Businesses running their own storefront or checker site on top of our catalogue via API
- Anyone processing enough individual unlocks or checks that per-order retail pricing and manual ordering no longer make sense
- Checker or unlock websites of your own that need a supplier behind the scenes
If you're not sure which side fits, a simple test works well: if you'd place more than a handful of orders in a typical week, wholesale pricing and tools are almost always worth the short onboarding step.
What's different at wholesale
| Retail | Wholesale | |
|---|---|---|
| Pricing | Per-order, storefront price | Bulk tiers, confirmed during onboarding |
| Ordering | One order at a time via the order box | One at a time, in bulk, or via API |
| Account tools | Order tracking | Order history, statements, API keys |
| Best for | Individuals unlocking their own phone | Shops and resellers ordering regularly |
None of this changes what an unlock or a check actually does — see how carrier unlocking works and is my phone eligible for unlock for the mechanics that apply to every order regardless of which side placed it. Wholesale changes the pricing and the tooling around that same underlying process, not the process itself.
Why businesses choose the API over manual ordering
A shop or reseller placing a handful of orders a day can use the portal like any retail customer, just at bulk pricing. Once volume grows past that, submitting each order by hand becomes the bottleneck rather than the unlock itself — that's what the API is for: your own system submits orders, receives status updates, and reconciles them automatically, the same way a checker site or a repair-shop point-of-sale tool would.
How to get started

- 3Order however suits your workflowPlace orders one at a time through the client portal, in bulk, or automate everything through the API.
- 4Track everything in one placeBalance, order history, and statements are all visible from the portal at any time.
Approval isn't automatic underwriting-by-form — expect a short back-and-forth to understand your volume and use case, so pricing and limits fit how you actually operate rather than a one-size-fits-all tier.
Every guide on this site — how unlocking works, eligibility, timing — applies the same way to orders placed through a wholesale account; the underlying process for each phone doesn't change, only the pricing and ordering tools do.
