SimpleConsign review
Bottom line
SimpleConsign is resale-specific point of sale and back-office software that covers checkout, inventory, consignor payouts, and reporting. Its clearest strength is the consignor and vendor portal combined with automated ACH payouts, which removes much of the manual bookkeeping for consignment and mall operators. The main cost to watch is that Shopify and QuickBooks Online integrations require the $359 Professional plan, and intro pricing ends after six months or $50,000 in sales. Consignment boutiques and vendor malls that want one system for the register, payouts, and books should consider it first.
What is SimpleConsign?
SimpleConsign is web-based software for resale businesses, including consignment boutiques, vendor and antique malls, buy-outright stores, and estate sale operators. It combines point of sale, inventory, consignor and vendor balances, payouts, and reporting in one system. The problem it targets is the recurring work of tracking which items belong to which consignor, what each person is owed, and what the accountant needs at month end.
Staff ring up sales with several payment methods and apply discount rules by tag color, category, price, or time period. New stock goes in through AI item entry, where a photo fills in the inventory fields, and real-time price comparisons suggest prices based on comparable items. Consignors and vendors log into their own portal to manage inventory and check balances. Payouts go out by ACH in batches or by check, and end-of-day reports close out registers without manual reconciliation.
The platform is built for owners, managers, and staff, with unlimited users and permissions assigned by role. Billing is month-to-month with no long-term contract. Basic costs $159 per month, Standard $259, and Professional $359, with a $99 per month intro rate on Professional for six months or until the store reaches $50,000 in sales. Vendor Mall Plus, which adds centralized checkout, rent collection, and vendor payouts for malls, starts at $199 per month intro and moves to $379. Enterprise pricing is custom.
What sets SimpleConsign apart is that resale-specific workflows, such as split payouts, consignor accounts, multi-party sales, and store credit, are part of the core product rather than add-ons. Vendor mall rent collection and a 3D floor map sit in the same platform as the retail register. Shopify and QuickBooks Online connect on the Professional plan, and the company provides weekday phone support, unlimited chat and email, and free training.
