Review payout methods

Set the default revenue share

Under Default revenue share, choose Percentage of sale or Formula. This applies to every consignor that inherits the shop default. See Revenue share formulas for formula syntax and examples.
Consignment is rolling out gradually. If you don’t see the Consignment tab in settings, it isn’t enabled for your store yet, so contact support to request access.

Pay consignors

Select Pay consignors.
3

Choose method and date

Set the Payout method (Manual), the Paid on date, and any Notes, such as a reference.
4

Select consignors

Tick the consignors you’re paying. Each row shows their outstanding balance, and the footer shows the selected count and total. Consignors with nothing outstanding don’t appear.
5

Record

Select Record [n] payouts. Supercycle settles each selected consignor’s outstanding balance into a payout and groups them under a single payout run.
Recording a payout doesn’t move any money. Supercycle tracks what you owe and what you’ve paid. Make the actual payment outside Supercycle (cash, bank transfer, etc.) using the payout method details on the consignor.

Archive or unarchive a consignor

Open the consignor, change Status to Archived (or Active), and save.
On the Consignors table, select the consignors, open the ••• menu, and choose Archive consignors or Unarchive consignors.
Archiving keeps all earnings, refunds, and payouts, and any outstanding balance stays payable. See Archive a consignor.

Delete a payout

Open the payout from Payouts and delete it.
Select the payouts, open the ••• menu, and choose Delete payouts. Confirm to remove them.
Deleting a payout returns the entries it covered to unsettled, so they count toward the balance owed again. See Delete a payout.
