Why should a wholesale catalog be digital?
A wholesaler sends the catalog to regular customers over and over. When prices and stock change, it is very easy for customers to work with the wrong version or come back with an unclear order.
A digital catalog solves this with one permanent link: it opens on phone and computer, flips like a book, shows rich content and lets the customer take action from within the page. When you need to update a price, image or category, you publish a new version and the link that was already sent stays the same link.
What should you include in the catalog?
- Customer price list: a clear page or area that shows the information the customer needs before reaching out or ordering.
- Agent catalog: a clear page or area that shows the information the customer needs before reaching out or ordering.
- Products on sale: a clear page or area that shows the information the customer needs before reaching out or ordering.
- New products: a clear page or area that shows the information the customer needs before reaching out or ordering.
- Seasonal stock: a clear page or area that shows the information the customer needs before reaching out or ordering.
- Wholesale categories: a clear page or area that shows the information the customer needs before reaching out or ordering.
Capabilities that generate inquiries and orders
- Sharing of selected pages
- Password protection for the price list
- WhatsApp cart
- One version update for everyone
- Tracking of viewed pages
A field agent sends the customer just one category out of the catalog and gets back an order with SKUs and quantities.
How do you start without rebuilding everything?
If you already have a PDF, price list or presentation, you upload them to flipo and get a flipbook catalog within minutes. Then you add an interaction layer: WhatsApp buttons, forms, links, video or products to order. If you have no ready material, you can build pages from scratch or use AI to create an initial structure, texts and design.
This page is part of a wider set of guides. We recommend starting with the main guide to the digital catalog, getting to know the process of turning a PDF into a catalog, and then checking out flipo pricing.

Frequently asked questions
Can I password-protect a wholesale catalog?
Yes. You can show only the cover to anyone without a password, and keep the price list for authorized customers.
Can I work with several catalogs at once?
Yes. The subscription includes one active catalog, and you can add additional catalogs for a discounted annual fee.
Can I update the catalog after sharing it?
Yes. You go into the admin, update pages or components and publish again. The link and QR stay the same, and viewers see the new version.
Can I receive inquiries from within the catalog?
Yes. You can add WhatsApp buttons, contact forms, links to product pages and clickable areas that lead to the next action.
