Everything you do to run consignment, from turning it on to paying a consignor what their items have earned.

Open consignment settings

Turn consignment on

Turn on Enable consignment, then select Save. Manage consignors appears in the page header once the setting is saved.

Turn on Enable consignment, then Save.

3

Review payout methods

Under Payout methods, only Manual is marked Active, so you record the payouts you make outside Supercycle, such as cash or a bank transfer. Store credit and Bank transfer show as Not available.
4

Set the default revenue share

Under Default revenue share, choose Percentage of sale and enter a percentage, or choose Formula and select Add formula. The default applies to every consignor that inherits it. See Revenue share formulas.
Consignment is in beta. If the Consignment tab isn’t in your settings, contact support from the app to request access.

Add a consignor

1

Open consignors

Go to Consignors. Manage consignors on the Consignment settings page goes to the same table.
2

Select Add consignor

Select Add consignor in the page header.
3

Enter the details

Enter a Name, which is the brand or partner name you’ll see on items and payouts. Link a Customer if the consignor should follow their balance in their customer account.
4

Set the revenue share

Set Revenue share to Inherit shop default, Percentage of sale, or Formula. See Revenue share formulas for what a formula can read.
5

Create the consignor

Select Create consignor. Payout methods and the rest of the consignor’s details are edited on their page afterwards.

Assign an item to a consignor

1

Open the item

Open the item from Inventory.
2

Open the consignor picker

On the Consignor card, select the edit icon. An item with no consignor shows as store-owned.
3

Choose the consignor

Search for the consignor, select their row, and select Select. The card shows the consignor and the revenue share their items earn.

Select the edit icon on the Consignor card, pick a consignor, then Select.

4

Assign several items at once (optional)

On the Inventory table, select the items, open the ••• menu, choose Assign consignor, and pick the consignor.
An item takes its consignor’s revenue share. There’s no rate on the item itself, so treat one item differently by reading its custom fields in the formula, such as item.fields.payout_rate.

Record a payout

1

Open payouts

Go to Payouts.
2

Select Pay consignors

Select Pay consignors in the page header.
3

Set the method and date

Set the Payout method to Manual, set Paid on to the date you paid, and add Notes such as a bank reference.
4

Select the consignors

Tick the consignors you’re paying. Each row shows the balance owed, and the footer totals what you’ve selected. Consignors with nothing outstanding aren’t listed.
5

Record the payouts

Select Record payouts, which counts the consignors you ticked. Supercycle settles each one’s outstanding balance into a payout and groups them under a single payout run.

Select Pay consignors, tick a consignor, then record the payouts.

Recording a payout doesn’t move money. Make the payment outside Supercycle using the details on the consignor’s Payout methods card, then record it here.
