Everything in the store plan

See what ConsignEngine can do for your store.

One plan covers the daily store loop: intake, labels, checkout, reconciliation, consignor balances, payouts, staff access, and owner-controlled settings.

Included in the plan. Enabled when ready.

New workflows start off for existing stores. Owners turn them on deliberately; Square checkout and automatic updates also need separate setup and verification.

Browse by store task

Start with the job your team needs to do.

Core store workflows and the optional capabilities below are included in one plan.

“Owner-enabled” starts off. “Setup & verification” needs additional readiness work before use. Existing configurable features are marked “Store setting.”

Intake & drop-offs

Add items and keep ownership details together.

Create the consignor, capture the item, apply the right terms, and keep the supporting intake evidence together from day one.

Staff, managers, owners

7 features

01.1Included

Add items under a consignor

Create or find a consignor, then record category, condition, price, expiry, brand, colour, size, and notes.

Preview a supported inventory file, acknowledge duplicates, and commit the import all-or-nothing.

Guided inventory migration

Review a supported active-inventory CSV against existing consignors and current terms, then reconcile item counts and value before import. Owners import opening consignor balances separately; store credit and historical transactions are outside this import.

01.7Included

Add a consignor during intake

Create a consignor and opening terms without leaving the intake flow, then keep the new item linked to that account.

Scan items at the register

Scan or type a control number, add taxable custom items, and recheck availability and price before completion.

Useful terms

A short guide to ConsignEngine language.

These are the few terms worth understanding before you try the product.

Control number: The store-readable number assigned to an item. Staff can print it with a barcode, type it, or scan it at the register.
Consignor share: The part of an eligible sale owed to the consignor under the terms retained for that item.
Store-funded discount: A checkout discount that reduces store earnings without silently reducing the consignor earnings already promised.
External terminal: A card terminal operated separately from ConsignEngine. Staff record only the provider receipt or payment reference, never the card number.
Future-only setting: A rule that applies to new work without rewriting the receipt, return promise, or contract behind earlier records.
Auditor: A fixed read-only staff role for reviewing operational and financial records without everyday write access.
