Here at BPF<\/a><\/strong>, we work with hundreds of trade and domestic customers every single day; which is why our site has been uniquely designed to accommodate you or your companies every need! As such, we offer multiple types of customer account (including trade accounts and credit accounts etc.) so you can enjoy a range of benefits suited to you.<\/p>\n

All orders welcome, big or small!<\/h4>\n

As mentioned above, we don\u2019t just sell to trade and so all orders are welcome, no matter how big or small. \u00a0For in stock parts, you can order however many you\u2019d like; from 1 to 100,000+, simply add however many you need to your basket and proceed to checkout!<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve even added a feature so that if you\u2019re looking to make a 1 off purchase for a high quantity, we offer a price bracket system. This system means that the more you buy, the less you pay; as shown below..<\/p>\n

Creating a trade account only takes a couple of minutes, and once done, you\u2019ll be able to place trade orders in next to no time! You can also look forward to exclusive offers and discounts, while being one of the first to know about exciting new products.<\/p>\n

    Alternatively, click the \u201cAccess Trade Prices\u201d button on any product page. This will check if you have a trade login already or if you need to apply to be upgraded online. The application \/ upgrade process is usually very quick and confirmed via email.<\/p>\n

    Credit account<\/h4>\n

    Having a credit account can be particularly eye-watering, especially with the accompanying APR rates. However, having a BPF credit account provides you with plenty of flexibility; so you can order today and pay another, all with 0% APR to pay!<\/p>\n

    If you\u2019re looking to set up a credit account, we will need to send you an application form to complete. However, credit accounts are reserved for customers who place trade quantity orders (as highlighted by the blue columns on the pricing table) on an ongoing, regular basis. Provided your application is approved, your first trade order placed will be on a proforma basis. Subsequent orders following the proforma would go onto the credit account.<\/p>\n

    Where do I apply?<\/h4>\n
