Questions
What is the best consignment software for a small business?
For a shop that sells on Shopify, an app inside Shopify keeps costs and systems down; Consignment Hub is free for up to 3 consignors. For a shop that wants a dedicated consignment point of sale, Ricochet and ConsignCloud start lowest, at $99 and $139 a month.
Is there free consignment software?
Consignment Hub is free for up to 3 active consignors, with every feature. Most full systems offer a free trial rather than a free plan.
Do I need a separate point of sale for consignment?
No. Shopify POS sells consigned items like any other product, and an app inside Shopify splits each sale. A separate consignment point of sale makes sense if you don't use Shopify.
