    105 ### FAQ
     110== Frequently Asked Questions ==
    106111
    107 Why is a Reseller Account required?
     112= Why is a Reseller Account required? =
    108113Users maintain a wallet balance on their secure Reseller Account. The Reseller Account can be used for various sales channels including API transactions. When an item is purchased, the discounted cost price of the item is deducted from the Reseller wallet.
    109114
    110 What about Multisite?
     115= What about Multisite? =
    111116The plugin cannot be used on a multisite and while it is possible to install the free version on multiple sites, using the same credentials will cause conflicts.
    112117
    113 What about page speed?
     118= What about page speed? =
