Discreet clearance channel for brands
Launch Flash Sales on Top Marketplaces — Without the Headache
Connect your store once. Choose the SKUs you want to clear. We handle the channels.
FAQs – How It Works
How does this work — and does it protect my brand?
We distribute inventory through major U.S. flash sale marketplaces and handle all relationships, approvals, and backend operations.
You simply fulfill the orders. There are no returns, no return address exposure, and shipping is handled as part of the program and built into the economics, so your core brand and pricing stay protected.
How much does it cost and what does pricing look like?
There are no upfront fees. We make money on the spread between your cost and the flash sale price.
For example, if you recover $10 per unit, we might sell to the flash site at $14, and they list it at $29.99. This works best for $50–$100 MSRP products that can clear inventory, free storage, and return cash—without disrupting your main channels.
When do I get paid?
We pay monthly for all shipped orders from the prior month. Clean, predictable revenue.
What platforms do you work with?
We work with major U.S. flash sale marketplaces and manage all platform relationships and execution. Brands don’t need to open or manage any marketplace accounts—we act as the single point of connection across channels.
Do I need to integrate anything?
We’re platform-agnostic and built for low-lift setup. Most brands connect in days via Shopify, API, or secure file transfer (SFTP), and our team handles the technical details. More complex enterprise integrations are evaluated case by case.
How long does onboarding take?
Most brands are live within a few days. Send us your offer sheet and we’ll handle the rest.
Can I test with just a few SKUs?
Yes. Many brands start with a small pilot to validate performance before scaling.
Low lift, fast feedback.
What kind of products do well?
Premium apparel, accessories, home, and select CPG. If it’s quality excess priced right, we can move it.
