Pay Hundreds of Consignors in One Click-Not One Weekend

Consignment Helper's automated payout system generates direct deposit files and check lists instantly. Every transaction tracked in real-time means accurate payouts without spreadsheets, manual calculations, or late nights reconciling numbers.

The Challenge: The Post-Sale Spreadsheet Marathon

Your sale was a success-$50,000 in sales, 300 happy shoppers, volunteers high-fiving. Then Monday morning hits.

You're staring at a spreadsheet with 150 consignors, each owed a different amount. There are fees to deduct, unsold items to account for, and volunteer credits to apply. One wrong formula, and someone gets paid too much-or too little.

Three days later, you're still writing checks by hand. Your inbox is filling with "When will I get paid?" emails. And you just discovered a $200 error from row 47.

Manual Payout Nightmares

  • Average time: 15-20 hours of manual calculations
  • Spreadsheet errors cause angry consignors
  • Hand-writing 100+ checks takes days
  • One bounced check destroys trust

Payout Disputes Can End Your Reputation

A consignor who sold $500 worth of items expects to be paid correctly and quickly. When your spreadsheet shows $450 and they counted $520, the conversation gets ugly fast.

Even worse? When you can't explain the discrepancy because your records are a mess of handwritten notes and Excel formulas. Now you're writing apology checks and hoping they come back next year.

Your consignors trusted you with their items. They deserve payouts they can trust too.
