Automated Consignment Payout Notices
Every morning, WebRun opens SimpleConsign, finds consignors whose balance has hit your payout threshold, drafts a personalized payout-ready email for each, and posts your team a Slack list of notices awaiting approval before any email is sent.
How do I automatically notify consignors when their payout is ready?
Every morning, WebRun checks SimpleConsign for consignors whose balance has reached your payout threshold, drafts a personalized payout-ready email for each in Gmail, and posts a Slack summary for staff review. No email is sent until a team member approves it, keeping consignor communications accurate and on-brand.
- Every qualifying consignor gets a timely, personalized payout notice
- Staff spend minutes approving drafts instead of writing emails from scratch
- No payout notice goes out without a human review
Built for consignment shop owners · resale store managers · thrift and secondhand retailers

Questions, answered
Will it send payout emails to consignors automatically?
No. WebRun drafts each notice in Gmail and leaves it unsent. A staff member reviews and sends every email, so no consignor is contacted without human approval.
How does it know which consignors are ready for a payout?
It reads your live SimpleConsign balances each morning and compares them against the threshold you configure, so only consignors who have genuinely earned a payout are queued.
What if a consignor was already paid this cycle?
WebRun checks the current balance in SimpleConsign on every run, so consignors whose balances have already been cleared are skipped automatically.
