Hello,

I want to set up a wholesale option on the website.

But How do I verify the EIN number of the wholesaler.?

Please Help me out on this.

You could have them submit/email/upload a copy of their EIN certificate letter which shows their business name and EIN information directly from the IRS prior to having them create an account - OR, you could let people create an account, and provide their EIN number, and then you email them directly after you've received their request to open a wholesale account and ask them to submit/upload a copy of their EIN certificate.
