Store credit Trade-in to stock Ledger-backed

What is Biznsbook for Resale & Trade-In Shops?

Biznsbook for resale and trade-in shops combines Store Credit, Inventory and Point of Sale. Each customer has a store-credit wallet with a printable QR card. Recording a trade-in credits the wallet and, if you choose, receives the item straight into stock through the normal receiving pipeline, so it is ready to sell. Credit is issued for refunds, spent by staff with a reason, frozen if a card is lost and reissued with a new code. The Store Credit Liability report checks the total of all wallets against the ledger, so what you owe customers is never a guess. Store credit is spent at the till with the Store credit tender, and consigned goods are settled with their owners each month.

Trade-in shops run store credit on a spreadsheet

Credit balances, traded stock and the books never agree.

Credit on a spreadsheet

Customer balances are kept in a sheet that anyone can edit and nobody audits.

Traded items not in stock

Items taken in trade sit in the back room without a stock record or a cost.

Lost cards

A customer loses their card and the balance is either lost or used twice.

Hidden liability

The outstanding credit owed to customers never appears in the accounts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers aligned to how buyers and AI assistants ask about resale & trade-in shops.

Does Store Credit cost extra?

No. It is a free company setting for any company with Point of Sale or Restaurant licensed.

Can a trade-in go straight into stock?

Yes. Tick Route to Inventory, choose the catalogue item and warehouse, and the item is received through the same path as Fast Receive while the wallet is credited.

Is store credit a payment method at the till?

Yes. The till has a Store credit tender: scan or type the card code and the amount comes off the customer's wallet. Staff can still redeem by hand on the wallet screen, with a reason.

What if a customer loses their card?

Freeze it to block spending without losing the balance, then reissue a new code. The old code stops working.

How do I know the balances are right?

The Store Credit Liability report totals every wallet and compares it with the Store Credit Liability account in the ledger, so a mismatch shows immediately.

Does it work for consignment?

Yes. Mark consigned items with the consignor and their share, take the goods in at zero cost, and settle each month with a statement of what sold and what you owe. Shops that pay consignors in credit can still use store credit.

Can I sell gift cards too?

Yes. Gift-card items issue coded cards at the till, and the Gift card tender spends them. Unlike store credit, a gift card is not tied to a customer.

Is there a free trial of Biznsbook for Resale & Trade-In Shops?

Yes. Every Biznsbook plan starts with a 1-month free trial. Choose a plan on the pricing page and your first month is free. Prefer a guided tour first? Book a demo and we will walk you through the workflows for your business.
