Consignors can follow their own performance without you sending updates. When a consignor is linked to a Shopify customer, a Consignment page appears in that customer’s account with their balance, recent activity, payouts, and items. The page is read-only, so consignors see their numbers but change nothing.

Give a consignor access

1

Link a customer

On the consignor’s page, set Customer to the Shopify customer the consignor logs in with.
2

Let them log in

The consignor logs in to your store’s customer accounts. Consignment appears on their dashboard.
A consignor only sees their details while they’re linked to an active consignor. Archiving the consignor hides the page, and a customer who isn’t a consignor sees Consignment isn’t set up for this account yet.

What the consignor sees

The consignor gets two surfaces, the same way membership appears in customer accounts: a summary card on their dashboard, and a fuller Consignment page with stats, activity, and items.

The Consignment page: the balance owed, what the items have earned, and the payouts you've recorded.

Summary card

The card on the dashboard is the at-a-glance version. It shows the balance owed, as [amount] owed to you or You’re all settled up when nothing is outstanding, a line summarizing their items and earnings, the total paid out to date, and the latest payouts you’ve recorded with their dates and amounts.

Stats

The Consignment page leads with four figures: Balance owed, Total earned, Consigned items, and Total paid out.

Recent activity

A reverse-chronological feed of everything that has moved the balance:
  • Earnings from rentals, with the cycle and item, as a positive green amount.
  • Refunds, as a negative red amount.
  • Payouts you’ve recorded, as a negative amount with the payout run and the date you paid.
Before any items have been rented, the feed reads Earnings will appear here once your items are rented.

My items

Each consigned item with its title, serial number, completed rentals, and commission rate. A consignor with more items than fit sees the first batch and a count of the total.

Considerations

  • The page relies on Shopify customer accounts, so the consignor needs an account on your store.
  • Everything on it mirrors the admin. Recording a payout or assigning an item changes what the consignor sees the next time they open the page, with nothing to publish or send.
