SideStore

Consignment software that runs the boring half of retail for you

SideStore is a full operating system for consignment commerce. Brands and makers upload a product, retailers place it on a shelf, and the platform handles pricing, payments, settlement and analytics automatically. No spreadsheets, no monthly invoices, no chasing payouts.

What consignment software actually has to do

Consignment is a three-party trade: a brand owns inventory, a retailer hosts it, a customer buys it. Software has to keep all three honest. SideStore does this with a programmable ledger, FIFO batch allocation, and automatic settlement so every sale credits the right party within seconds of capture.

  • Per-listing commission that the retailer agrees to once and never has to invoice
  • Append-only retailer ledger with adjustments, never silent edits
  • Capital recovery view that tells brands exactly when a deployment paid back

Built for the Swiss market, usable everywhere

SideStore launched in Switzerland and is operated as a Swiss Made FinTech. Currency, VAT, payout cadence and bank rails are tuned for CHF first, but the platform supports EUR, USD and other major world currencies.

Who it is for

Independent brands and makers who would otherwise sell on Etsy or at markets. Boutiques, concept stores, galleries and museum shops that want curated inventory without buying it outright. Distributors who want a programmable replacement for wholesale terms.

Frequently asked questions

Is SideStore free?

There is a free tier covering a single workspace, unlimited SKUs and the first listings. Platform fees are transparent and only triggered on paid sales.

Do I need a Stripe account?

Yes. SideStore uses Stripe as its payment rail. The platform itself is the merchant of record and pays out to retailers and brands via Stripe Connect.

Do merchants need to create an account?

Merchants are encouraged to create an account to manage their placements and access their settlement dashboard. They can, however, review a consignment proposal without an account before deciding to join.
