Consignment vs. Indie
Consignment is our flagship model where we help to both show and sell your works by matching them with an exhibition venue and powering the sale using our QR-to-checkout flow. Indie is a separate product that allows you to only use the sales flow. You use it as a digital storefront, and we never interact with your artworks.
