Getting Started

Accounts & Sign-Up.

Who can open a wholesale account?

Licensed practitioners, and the practices, spas and schools they work in: massage therapists and bodyworkers, chiropractors, physical therapists, acupuncturists, athletic trainers, naturopathic and integrative practitioners, day spas, wellness centers, massage schools and multi-provider clinics. Professional health and wellness operators and organizations can sign up too. You need a valid business entity and a business address.

What does the sign-up form ask for?

Your name, email and phone, your business or practice name, your business address and your practice type. You also confirm that you can provide an NPI or EIN on request. Answer yes and you can keep going. There's nothing to upload to get started.

Is there a wait before I can order?

No. There's no review step. Submit the form, sign in, and place your first order right away. Orders ship in 1 to 2 business days.

How do I sign in?

There's no password. Choose Practitioner login, enter your email, and we send you a one-time code.

Is my wholesale account separate from a kannacocbd.com account?

Yes. Wholesale accounts live on Kannaco Wholesale, wholesale.kannacocbd.com, which is its own store with its own sign-in. An account on kannacocbd.com doesn't carry over, so create your wholesale account there. That's where you sign in and order.

Is there a contract or a commitment?

No. Order as much or as little as you like, whenever you like, and stop at any time.

I'm signed in but I don't see wholesale pricing. What now?

Email wholesale@kannaco.co and the team checks your account, typically within one business day.

Is there a page for my type of practice?
Orders

Ordering, Shipping & Returns.

Where do I see wholesale pricing?

On Kannaco Wholesale. Prices show on every product as soon as you sign in. For how wholesale pricing works against the suggested client retail, see the practitioner program overview.

Is there a minimum order?

It depends on what you order. Retail formulas come in packs of 4, 8 or 12, so one 4-pack is a complete order, and you can mix formulas in the same order. One backbar bottle, in either size, is a complete order. So is one dropship unit. A custom order starts at four bottles.

Does the price per unit change with pack size?

No. Pro Cream, Pro Roll-On and Cooling Cream share one wholesale price per unit, in every pack size. You know what you pay before you order.

Do I set my own client price?

Yes. The suggested client retail is $84.99, and you decide what to charge in your practice.

How fast do orders ship?

Orders are processed and shipped in 1 to 2 business days. Standard Ground transit in the US is 1 to 5 business days. Tracking shows in your wholesale dashboard.

How is shipping charged?

Shipping is charged on every wholesale order and shown at checkout before you pay. Ground is the default, and faster options show at checkout. We can't ship to P.O. boxes.

Where do you ship?

To practices and clients in the US, with two limits: we don't ship to Alabama, and we can't deliver to P.O. boxes.

Can one order go to more than one location?

Each checkout ships to one address. If you'd like an order split across your practice locations, email the wholesale team and they'll set it up.

What if a retail formula doesn't suit my clients?

Every In-Office Retail pack has a 30-day satisfaction guarantee. Tell us within 30 days of delivery and we swap it for a different formula. Send a note with your order number. There are no forms to print.

What if an order arrives damaged, or I need to return something?

If an order is damaged in transit, we ship a replacement. For any other return, the Kannaco Wholesale refund policy sets out the terms.

How do I reorder?

Sign in and reorder from your wholesale dashboard, where your order history is kept. Many practices restock when they're down to two bottles.

The Line

Products & Formulas.

What does Kannaco make for practices?

Two lines. The retail line is three take-home formulas for your front desk: Pro Cream, Pro Roll-On and Cooling Cream. The backbar line is six formulas in 16 oz and 8 oz pump bottles for use during sessions in the treatment room.

How do the three retail formulas differ?

By feel and format. Pro Cream (Warming Formula) is a non-greasy cream that feels cool on contact, then settles into a steady warmth, in a 100 mL airless pump. Pro Roll-On (Max Cooling Formula) is a fast-drying gel-lotion with the strongest cooling in the line, in a hands-free 90 mL roller. Cooling Cream (Cooling Formula) is a light cream with a gentle cooling feel that builds and fades gradually, a milder scent and a 100 mL airless pump. The feel varies from person to person and by area. See what your clients see: Pro Cream, Pro Roll-On and Cooling Cream.

How much CBD and CBG is in each retail formula?

Each holds 4,000 mg of CBD + CBG at a 1:1 ratio, with 0.0% THC. The creams are 40 mg/mL. The Cooling Cream has been updated to the same 1:1 CBD + CBG standard, and the updated version is available by November 15, 2026. The exact amounts for each batch are on its certificate of analysis.

What's the difference between CBD and CBG?

CBD (cannabidiol) and CBG (cannabigerol) are two different cannabinoids found in hemp. Every Kannaco formula pairs them at a 1:1 ratio. For the plant chemistry behind them, see Topical Science for Practitioners.

Are the formulas full spectrum?

No. Kannaco formulas are made with CBD and CBG rather than a full-spectrum extract, and every batch shows 0.0% THC on its certificate of analysis. Topical Science explains the difference between full spectrum and isolate.

What's in the backbar line?

Six formulas, each in a 16 oz (473 mL) and an 8 oz pump bottle, all at 40 mg/mL of CBD + CBG (1:1). A 16 oz bottle holds 18,920 mg, and an 8 oz holds half that. The six are Pro Cream Warming Formula, Pro Sport Rapid Cooling Formula, CBD Cream Cooling Formula, Cushion & Glide Cream (magnesium and chamomile), Control & Grip Oil (jojoba and arnica) and Silk Glide Oil (terpene-infused). The no-menthol formulas, including the magnesium and jojoba oil-based massage formulas, ship by November 15, 2026. See Backbar Large Format to compare them by feel and glide.

Is one backbar formula stronger than another?

No. Every backbar formula is 40 mg/mL of CBD and CBG at a 1:1 ratio. Choose by feel and glide, the way you'd choose any massage medium.

How far does a backbar bottle go?

It depends on how much you use. At 5 mL a session, a 16 oz bottle lasts about 94 sessions and an 8 oz about 47.

Can clients take home the formula I used in the session?

For three formulas, yes. Backbar Pro Cream matches retail Pro Cream, Pro Sport matches the Pro Roll-On, and CBD Cream matches the Cooling Cream. Cushion & Glide Cream, Control & Grip Oil and Silk Glide Oil are made only for the treatment room.

Can I resell backbar bottles?

No. Backbar bottles are for use during sessions. For clients who want a formula to take home, use the In-Office Retail line.

Can I use retail bottles during the session?

You can, but the backbar bottles are made for it. They hold more product and have a pump top, so your retail stock stays on the shelf for clients to take home.

Is Silk Glide Oil easy on linens?

Silk Glide Oil is made to disperse in water, which helps linens wash clean. As with any oil, follow your usual laundry routine.

Do any formulas contain botanicals clients might react to?

Pro Cream and Control & Grip Oil contain arnica, and Cushion & Glide Cream contains chamomile, all from the daisy family. Check with clients who are sensitive to those plants. Every formula is for external use on intact skin. The Book of Topical Ingredients lists every ingredient we use and why it's there.

Proof

Quality, Testing & Compliance.

Is every batch third-party tested?

Yes, every batch of every product. Testing is done by SC Labs, an independent ISO/IEC 17025 accredited laboratory in Santa Cruz, California. Each batch-specific certificate of analysis covers cannabinoid potency, heavy metals, microbials and pesticides.

What is a certificate of analysis (COA)?

A COA is the lab's report for one production batch. It confirms the cannabinoid content, including the 0.0% THC result, and shows the contaminant screens, along with the testing method. It's the document to hand a client who wants to know exactly what's in the bottle.

What does ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation mean?

It's the international standard for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories. An accredited lab has shown technical competence, measurement traceability and consistent methods, verified by an independent accreditation body. That means potency results you can reference in a professional setting.

Are all the formulas 0.0% THC?

Yes. Pro Cream, Pro Roll-On, Cooling Cream and all six backbar formulas are made with CBD + CBG and show 0.0% THC on each batch's certificate of analysis.

Where do I find the lab reports?

Current reports for each product are on the Lab Reports page, and each product links to its certificate of analysis. Need a specific lot? Send a note with the lot number from the bottle.

Can I share COAs with clients?

Yes. Share the link, print a COA for your intake materials, or use it in client conversations. Clients can check exactly what they're using.

Is Kannaco LegitScript certified?

Yes. Kannaco's LegitScript certification is current. LegitScript is a third-party program that checks that online merchants of health and wellness products meet legal and ethical standards.

Is there a safety data sheet?
How are the products made?

Kannaco products are manufactured under GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) standards, so every batch is made and documented the same way. Kannaco is based in Olathe, Kansas.

Can I carry Kannaco in my state?

Federal rules for hemp-derived products are changing: a ban on synthetic cannabinoids starts November 12, 2026, and new total-THC limits, including a per-container cap, take effect December 11, 2026. State rules vary. Check your state's current rules before you order. We can share product documentation. A state-by-state practitioner regulations library is coming soon.

Programs

Programs: In-Office Retail, Backbar, Dropship, Custom Orders & Affiliate.

Which programs are there, and do I need a separate account for each?

Five programs run on one wholesale account: In-Office Retail for the front desk, Backbar Large Format for the treatment room, Dropship for clients you can't see in person, the Custom Order Builder for mixed orders, and the Practitioner Affiliate Program for reorders between visits. Many practices start with one and add others later.

How does In-Office Retail work?

Stock Pro Cream, Pro Roll-On and Cooling Cream at your front desk in packs of 4, 8 or 12, mixing formulas as you like. You set the client price, and every pack carries the 30-day satisfaction guarantee with a direct product swap. Shop the In-Office Retail collection.

How does Backbar Large Format work?

Order any mix of the six formulas in 16 oz or 8 oz bottles, one bottle at a time, and add retail packs to the same order. Practices with more than one location can have an order split across addresses. Shop the Backbar Large Format collection.

How does Dropship work?

Anyone can browse the Dropship collection. At checkout, sign in or create your account, add single units of Pro Cream, Pro Roll-On or Cooling Cream, and enter your client's name and address. We pack it and ship it to them in Kannaco packaging, with directions on the label and a link to the product's certificate of analysis. Shop the Dropship collection.

Who pays for a dropship order?

You pay your wholesale price at checkout and charge your client whatever you decide, however your practice normally takes payment. Kannaco never bills your client. There are no setup or monthly fees, and no stock to hold.

Can dropship and office orders go in the same checkout?

They live in the same account, but each checkout ships to one address. Place one order for your client and a separate order for anything going to your office.

What can I put in a custom order?

Any mix of the three retail formulas and the six backbar formulas in 8 oz or 16 oz bottles, in sets of 4, 8 or 12 bottles. It's the same products, combined in one checkout and one shipment. The 30-day guarantee covers In-Office Retail packs, so if you're unsure whether it covers your mix, ask the wholesale team before you check out. Start a custom order.

Who can join the Affiliate Program?

Any practice with an active Kannaco Wholesale account. Stay eligible with a wholesale order in the last 180 days. New to Kannaco? Create your wholesale account, place your first order, then join.

How does the Affiliate Program work?

You choose the discount your clients get on kannacocbd.com: 10%, 15% or 20% off. You get your own code and link, and the link remembers your client for 180 days. A client's first order with your link or code ties them to you, and you earn a commission on that order and every reorder after it. The commission per unit depends on the discount you pick; see the Practitioner Affiliate Program for the figures.

When are affiliate commissions paid?

Monthly, on the 15th. Before your first payment, we ask for your payout details and a W-9 by email. You can change your discount or code any time by emailing the wholesale team.

Should I still keep a shelf if I join the Affiliate Program?

Yes. You earn more on a unit sold in your office, and your client takes it home the same day. Your code is for the reorders that happen between visits.

In the Practice

Working With Clients.

How do practices bring the products into a visit?

Use the formula as part of the session, from a backbar bottle or a retail bottle kept in the room, and name it once so the client connects the feel to the product. If the client asks what you used, point them to the front desk. The decision happens at the desk, not on the table. It also helps to note the formula on the visit record.

Do I have to sell to my clients?

Not in a pushy way. You recommend a take-home product the same way you'd suggest anything else, based on your professional judgment. Offer it once, then leave it.

How should my team describe the products?

Keep it simple and factual. They're hemp-derived creams, oils and a roll-on for the skin. Talk about the feel (cooling or warming), the texture and format, the ingredient list and the lab testing, and offer the certificate of analysis. Don't name a health condition, don't compare the products to marijuana, and don't make claims about what they do.

A client asks what we used. What do we say?

Name the formula and how it feels: "That was Pro Cream. It starts cool, then turns warm." Directions are on every label, and many clients use it the way you did in the room, on clean, intact skin.

A client is drug tested. What do we tell them?

The formulas contain 0.0% THC, but no topical can be guaranteed not to affect a drug test. Share the batch certificate of analysis, and let clients who are tested make their own call.

Where on the body do clients use them?

They're for external use on intact skin. Practices commonly use them on the neck, shoulders, back, hands, knees and feet. Your professional judgment decides how they fit your clients.

Will a topical get in the way of an adjustment?

Topicals are typically used for soft-tissue work before or after the adjustment rather than during it. Choose a quick-drying formula like Pro Sport if you'll be adjusting right after.

Can I offer it as a service add-on?

Yes. Many studios and spas list a CBD + CBG enhancement on their menu and use a backbar formula for that part of the session.

Can my clients buy online instead?

Yes, on kannacocbd.com. With the Affiliate Program, you give them your own code and link, they get a discount, and you earn a commission on their orders.

What materials help my front desk?

Your account includes print-ready counter cards, script cards, protocol cards and take-home cards, plus staff education. See Practitioner Resources for the full list and Practitioner Education for training your team.

How do I explain the endocannabinoid system to a client?

Start with physiology, not the product. The body makes its own cannabinoid-like molecules, they act on receptors called CB1 and CB2, and enzymes break them down after use. When the talk turns to the product, describe it for what it is: a cream, oil or roll-on for the skin, with a published ingredient list and a batch lab report. Topical Science covers the background.

Can I share Kannaco education on my website or social media?

Yes, with a link back to kannacocbd.com. Don't edit it in ways that add health claims.
