welcome to the affiliates
Wholesale Ordering
Virtual Capoeira proudly offers access to wholesale prices on specified
capoeira gear to all approved affiliate instructors. You must be logged in to
your affiliate instructor account to view wholesale prices. In order to qualify
for wholesale pricing, you must purchase the minimum quantity of items listed at
the top of each category. Wholesale orders are not eligible for affiliate
commissions, VirtualPoints, SchoolPoints, or special discounts and promotions
unless otherwise specified. Delivery of wholesale orders will vary depending on
the item, size, and quantity ordered. Please allow 4–6 weeks for delivery on all
wholesale orders, noting that some orders may arrive much sooner. Please contact
us for expedited shipment requests and delivery information of your planned
wholesale orders.
How to Place a Wholesale Order
1. Log in. To place a wholesale order, simply log into your affiliate
account and click on the link that says “New! Place Wholesale Orders Online” on your account
homepage. Don't have an affiliate account?
Apply now!
2. Place your order. Enter in the quantities of items you'd like to
purchase on the wholesale order page. In order to receive wholesale pricing, you must
purchase the minimum quantity of items required in each category. However, all
orders exceeding $1,000 USD receive wholesale pricing with no minimum
requirements.
3. Pay for your order. We accept both domestic and international Visa
and MasterCards as well as US Discover cards. Simply enter your billing and
shipping information and complete the checkout process.
4. Approve the shipping quote. Once you pay for your order, we will
get to work on providing you a customized shipping quote, including the estimated
time and cost of delivery. Be sure to watch your email for the quote and approve
your preferred shipping method to complete your order. Because wholesale orders include many
combinations of items that differ in size and packaging requirements (e.g.
fragile merchandise such as berimbaus and bulky items such as capoeira pants),
shipping quotes can only be determined after your order is placed. One of our
shipping specialists will personally provide you with up to three delivery
options to fit your needs. Once you receive the quote by email, simply click the
"Approve" link next to the
shipping method you want to finalize your order.
Frequently Asked Questions

VirtualCapoeira.com Affiliate.

How do I place a wholesale order?
To place a wholesale order, simply log into your account
and click on the link that says “Place Wholesale Orders Online” on your account homepage. Follow
the Easy Ordering Instructions on the wholesale order page to complete your
order.
How does your $1,000 USD promotion work?
Generally you have to
purchase at least the required minimum quantity for each product category to
qualify for wholesale pricing. However, any
wholesale orders that total $1,000 USD or more (before shipping) will receive
wholesale pricing regardless of the number or quantities of the different items
in the order. For example, an order may consist of 8 Berimbaus, 15 Colored
Capoeira Pants, 10 Capoeira DVDs, 3 Pandeiros and 10 White Training Pants.
Although the number of Pandeiros purchased may not meet the minimum quantity for
its category, as long as the order total is at least $1,000 USD, the affiliate will
still qualify for wholesale pricing.
Why pay for my order before knowing how much shipping
charges will be?
Wholesale orders differ so much in size, weight, and
quantity that it is extremely difficult to give an accurate shipping estimate
at the time of checkout. In order to provide you with an estimate, we need you to
complete and pay for your order so that we can prepare it for shipment and
calculate the actual time and cost. Once we know your final order details, our
shipping specialists can determine the best method for shipment and give you the
best value for your dollar.
How do you approve a shipping quote?
After you pay for your order you will receive a shipping
quote at the email address listed in your account information. Your quote may provide up to three different options for
delivery that are based on time and cost. To select the quote you want, just click on the
“Approve” link next to your preferred shipping option.
Can my order be expedited?
Absolutely. We know that many times you just need your
stuff to get there fast. If you need your gear right away, simply check the box
that says, “I would like an express shipping quote” during the checkout process
and our shipping specialists will let you know just how fast your merchandise
will be there.
When will my wholesale order arrive?
Plan ahead for your wholesale orders! Please allow 4–6
weeks after the order is initially placed for delivery (though many items may ship from our warehouse within one business day). This time
makes it possible for us to keep providing you with great wholesale discounts!
If you require any of the items in your order to be expedited, please note those
items in the comments box before checking out. VirtualCapoeira.com will make
every effort to provide those items before your deadline. We will keep you
updated on the status of your order and shipments via email, and you can always
contact us at
CustomerService@VirtualCapoeira.com
with any questions you may have.
Why did only part of my order arrive?
Some wholesale orders may be delivered in two shipments.
Items that are available at the time of the order will generally ship within one
business day; other items will arrive 4–6 weeks after the order is placed.
Allowing for longer delivery times on wholesale orders makes it possible for us
to bring you premium products at discount prices.
Can I cancel/return/exchange my wholesale order?
Wholesale orders can be canceled until 11:59 pm EST of the
same calendar day they were placed. Orders canceled after this time but before
shipping will be subject to a 10% restocking fee. Because of the already low
prices we cannot accept returns on completed wholesale orders, however we will
be happy to make exchanges on wholesale orders. Shipping for wholesale orders
cannot be refunded.
Ordering Custom White Pants
VC now offers White Training Pants customized with your
school’s logo screen printed or embroidered right onto the pant, and we get them
to you in about a week!
- Order as many or as few as you like and still get
the wholesale price! You can order as few as two pants at a time as you need
them for new students or choose to order more to save on price and shipping
costs.
- Full color embroidery and printing.
Prices for both embroidery and printing include full color logos so you’re
not limited to keeping your logo to just 2 or 3 colors. New transfer
printing technology allows us to get you unlimited colors for one low price.
- Ship the pants wherever you want. Choose to
have the pants shipped to you or directly to your students.
- Charge whatever you like. You decide what you
want to charge for your pants and how much you want to make when you sell
them to your students. Your price at VirtualCapoeira.com remains the same.
You can place your order at any time through our automated wholesale system,
even after you’ve collected uniform fees from your student.
- Save money by not stocking huge inventories. If
you prefer, you never have to invest money upfront for pants again. You can
order your school’s pants after you get paid, or like most of our
instructors, just keep 1 or 2 of each size in stock and when one sells, use
the money to replace them two at a time.
- Reliable turnaround. Have you ever waited
months for pants to arrive from Brazil, or tried clearing them from customs?
We’ll print or embroider your customized pants on demand—even if it’s just
one at a time—and get them in the mail in about a week.
- Affordable – Have your cake and eat it too. We
deal in bulk so you don’t have to. We’re leveraging our purchasing power to
get you rock bottom wholesale prices on pants, screening, and embroidery
while still allowing you the flexibility of buying one at a time.
- Combine orders and save more. Mestres and
school owners, if you have more than one school with the same logo, you can
combine their orders with yours to save on cost and still have them shipped
directly to each school. For example, you can order 100 pants with full
color logos for our lowest wholesale price and have them shipped to 3 or 4 different
locations. You bill your students directly at your own prices and we’ll take
care of the rest. Imagine filling your students’ pants orders without ever
leaving your computer and still having room to collect your portion of the
sale!
How to Get Started
1. Choose whether to have your logo
embroidered or printed.
Log in
to your affiliate account to check wholesale prices for embroidery or printing.
2. Email us at
CustomerService@VirtualCapoeira.com
with your name, the name of your school, your original logo file (preferably in
.psd CS3 or .ai CS formats,) and let us know the size you want on your pants (dimensions
including height and width). Unless otherwise specified, the location of your
logo will be on the top left of the pant. There’s a one time set up fee of $50
to cover the costs of converting your logo to be embroidered or printed.
3. Place your first order! If you order 10 or more pants on your first
order, the $50 setup fee is waived.

3. Pay for your order. We accept both domestic and international Visa
and MasterCards as well as US Discover cards. Simply enter your billing and
shipping information and complete the checkout process.
4. Approve the shipping quote. Shipping is calculated on a flat rate
system to help keep it affordable for you. Pants are shipped via USPS Priority
Mail with delivery confirmation which is a 2-3 day shipping service. Domestic
costs (within the United States, including U.S. territories such as Puerto Rico
and military addresses) are as follows:
2 Pants: $7.50 ($3.75 ea)
3 Pants: $11 ($3.67 ea)
4 Pants: $13 ($3.25 ea)
5 Pants: $15 ($3 ea)
6-10 Pants: $2.50 ea
11+ Pants: Custom Shipping Quote
Once you pay for your order, we will get to work on
providing you a customized shipping quote, including the estimated time and cost
of delivery. Costs may vary depending on your location and whether you purchased
other wholesale products with your custom pant order. Be sure to watch your
email for the quote and approve your preferred shipping method to complete your
order. Because wholesale orders include many combinations of items that differ
in size and packaging requirements (e.g. fragile merchandise such as berimbaus
and bulky items such as capoeira pants), shipping quotes can only be determined
after your order is placed. One of our shipping specialists will personally
provide you with up to three delivery options to fit your needs. Once you
receive the quote by email, simply click the "Approve" link next to the shipping
method you want to finalize your order.
How long does it take to get my custom
pants?
For customers in the United States, your first order will take
about two weeks from the
date you order until it’s delivered because of the set up process. Each
subsequent order will arrive in about a week. International orders will take 3-4
weeks depending on the country and international shipping times.
