Before DropFlip
You're turning away product you'd want to buy.
You've capped the items, gone appointment-only, booked weeks out. The line didn't go away. It just moved somewhere you can't see it.
Every seller is a long conversation.
All day, across texts, calls, and the counter. Explaining, following up, re-explaining. Your staff isn't buying inventory, they're answering messages.
You're flying blind.
Your most valuable sellers. The profit you're clearing. The days that bury you. Trapped in a stack of paper.
Solution: Every drop-off, every number, every seller, all in one place. Here's how.
How it works
Three steps from drop-off to payout. No app for sellers, no clipboards for staff.
01
Sellers drop off and scan QR code
Seller scans a QR code at the counter, fills in their info, and drops off a bag of clothes. No line, no clipboard.
02
Staff sends offers
Staff sees every drop-off in one dashboard and sends offers straight to the seller by SMS or email, on their schedule, not the seller's.
03
Seller replies Yes or No
The seller reads the offer by SMS or email and replies YES or NO. They can accept or decline right from a text or email. No app, no login, no second trip to the store.

Branding & setup
Make it feel like your store.
Your sellers see your brand, your URL, and your local number — while we handle the setup behind the scenes.
Your domain
Sellers scan a code and land on dropoffs.yourstore.com — your logo, your colors, your voice. They never see ours.
Your local number
Offers text from a real number in your area code, so sellers recognize it, trust it, and actually reply.
White-glove onboarding
We handle the setup for you — domain, SMS compliance, A2P 10DLC registration, and staff training. Most stores are live within a week.
We process 10–20 sellers a day. Before DropFlip, tracking offers meant paper forms and chasing people by text.

The first dashboard built for the buy counter. Revenue, payouts, gross margin, store-credit mix, your top sellers by lifetime value, and the exact days and hours your counter gets slammed — every number you've been eyeballing, finally on one screen.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What DropFlip is, how it works, and what setup looks like.
What is DropFlip?
DropFlip is point-of-buy software built for vintage and resale shops. Sellers check in by scanning a QR code and dropping off their items; staff review each bag, send offers by text or email, and track every drop-off, payout, bin, and margin from one dashboard. It replaces paper forms and scattered texts with a single buy-counter system.
How does DropFlip work?
DropFlip works in three steps. First, sellers scan a QR code at the counter, enter their details, and drop off a bag. Second, staff review each drop-off in one dashboard and send an offer by SMS or email. Third, the seller replies YES or NO from their phone. No app, no login, and no second trip to the store.
What is a point-of-buy (drop-off) system?
A point-of-buy system is the buying-side counterpart to a point-of-sale system. Instead of ringing up sales, it manages everything a shop buys from the public: intake, item review, offers, seller communication, payouts, and records. DropFlip is a point-of-buy tool designed specifically for the drop-off and buy counter at vintage and resale stores.
Who is DropFlip for?
DropFlip is built for independent vintage, resale, consignment, and secondhand shops that buy inventory directly from the public. It is designed for stores handling steady drop-off volume, from a few sellers a day to dozens, that want to stop turning away product and capture every buy without paper forms or endless back-and-forth texting.
How much does DropFlip cost? Is there a free trial?
Yes. New stores start with the first 30 days free and no credit card required upfront, so you can process real drop-offs before committing. For current pricing and a plan that fits your store's volume, book a demo and DropFlip's founder will walk you through setup personally.
How long does setup take?
Most stores are live within a week. DropFlip handles the setup for you, including your branded subdomain, your local SMS number, A2P 10DLC registration, and staff training. The founder onboards every store personally, so you're processing real drop-offs within days, not months.
Does DropFlip handle SMS compliance and A2P 10DLC?
Yes. DropFlip manages SMS compliance for you, including A2P 10DLC registration, as part of white-glove onboarding. Offers text from a real local number in your area code, so sellers recognize the message, trust it, and reply. The carrier and compliance setup are handled behind the scenes.
Do sellers need to download an app?
No. Sellers never download an app or create a login. They scan a QR code to check in their drop-off, then receive offers by text or email and reply YES or NO right from their phone. The whole experience runs in the browser on your store's branded subdomain.
Talk to me.
I'll do the rest.
I onboard every store personally. Domain, branding, staff training, SMS compliance — all handled. Most stores are processing real drop-offs within the week.
