Expanding Our Reach: New App Integrations Live on Shopify for Consignment Stores

Aravenda is the only consignment software that is fully mobile enabled.  We designed it such that you can enter items easily, take the photo with your phone and save it direclty into the listing.  No more downloading and uploading pictures.  This streamlined item entry process makes cross-posting to other sales channels a breeze.

We are nearly ready to launch our full AI based item entry solution where you can get item descriptions to load from a photo, UPC code or a full item title. this will shorten your item entry from a minute per item to seconds per item. Along with this work, we have also been testing some Shopify apps for cross-posting ease and accuracy/

As resellers ourselves, we know continued success means keeping on top of trends and technology that will grow your business faster and with less effort.  Consignment store owners that think bigger than the immediate sale often do well long term.  We love testing and trying things out that will help increase sales reach and attract new customers for our consignment software users.

We’re excited to share these behind-the-scenes updates that have been months in the making here at Aravenda. All these apps allow you to calculate consignor payouts properly in Aravenda where you can pay by Venmo or Paypal:

eBay DPL – Synchs your Shopify store w/ your eBay store. Product sales sync across platforms ensuring accurate consignor payout calculation. This integration offers faster product listings, real-time inventory sync, and simplified order fulfillment—so what you see is always what’s available.

• Fulfill eBay orders from Shopify
• Maintain accurate inventory
• Payout consignors using Venmo or Paypal

Offerly – Make all your listings on sale. You don’t have to run a special sale, customers can submit their own offers using their email address. It’s easy, quick, and gives them an opportunity to make a deal which you can approve or reject. In addition, you get to capture email addresses from people who visit your website to grow your email mailing list. It’s all about making shopping more personal and interactive.

Tryon -Try Before You Buy – Customers pay a deposit towards an item and try it at home;  like wedding gowns as an example. Customers can now enjoy the freedom to try selected products at home before committing to a purchase. This feature allows shoppers to experience items firsthand, ensuring fit, style, and satisfaction without the risk. If they love it, they keep it and you make the full sale. If not, returns are easy and hassle-free.

We get a lot of requests for consignment software apps that connect with Poshmark. None of these settle sales back to Shopify.  You can push items to Poshmark from Shopify, but you will have to record the sale in Shopify to calculate your consignor payouts.  There are still no easy ways to get sales to push outside of the Poshmark platform.

Export Your Store – This app is designed to automatically export and sync store listings across multiple marketplaces, but the sales do not settle back to Shopify.  It provides a central control panel, allowing sellers to manage all their listings from one source—Shopify—while maintaining full customization for each marketplace.

Commercium –  Allows automated multi-channel selling and optimized inventory management. This app enables seamless listing of products across marketplaces such as Poshmark, centralizes order processing, and ensures stock levels remain accurate everywhere. The result? Faster service, fewer errors, and a more unified shopping experience.

Ensuring your store is using the best technology is one way to ensure you have a fully recession proof business.  Check out our tips for recession proofing your business, and let us know how we can help you execute your plans.

You may have tried some of these ideas before, but like technology that is always changing and evolving, giving a second try to something may get you a new result because other processes or trends may have shifted since the last time you tried it.
