Consignment
Stores take product now and pay only for what sells. Brands get on more shelves and see every count.
How it works
Brand turns it on
Consignment is enabled store by store.
Count on a schedule
Weekly, every 14 days or every 30 days, the store counts what's left.
Settle what sold
One settlement invoice for what sold; unsold units go back on the next pickup.
Why it matters
Consignment helps a new brand get shelf space a store wouldn't pay for up front. Done by hand, it falls apart at the count: nobody agrees on what sold and settlements slide.
A fixed count schedule and one settlement invoice per period give both sides the same numbers, and unsold units go back on the next pickup.
Questions
How often does the store count?
Weekly, every 14 days or every 30 days, set by the brand for each store.
Who decides which stores get consignment?
The brand turns it on store by store.
What happens to product that doesn't sell?
It goes back to the brand on the next pickup, and the store isn't charged for it.
