Your economics, described once and applied every cycle
Every multi-vendor store prices differently. Some charge rent, some take a split, most do both, and almost everyone has a handful of vendors on terms agreed years ago that nobody wants to renegotiate. Rules let you describe that instead of bending your business to fit the software.
Rent, in the way malls actually charge it
Rent is priced by the space — booth 14 costs what booth 14 costs. Not by the square foot, because that is not how anyone in a real store quotes it, and not by a formula you then have to explain.
Charges accrue to the vendor’s ledger and settle against their sales, so a strong month means a smaller rent bill and a bigger cheque without anyone reconciling two systems.
Preview before you commit
Generate a month’s rent charges, see exactly what will post to whom, and adjust individual amounts before committing them.
The date the charge carries is yours to set, so rent lands inside the settlement period you intend rather than the one the calendar picked.
The rules you can set
A custom rate per vendor
Set a store commission rate, then override it for individual vendors. The vendor you have carried since year one keeps their rate without you running a separate arrangement on paper.
The charges that repeat
Insurance, marketing contributions, card-fee offsets. Written once as a rule and applied every cycle, to one vendor or to all of them at once.
Charges post on schedule
Fees post every cycle whatever the vendor’s balance, so nothing quietly goes uncharged and a vendor cannot fall behind invisibly. What they owe stays visible on their ledger.
Adjustments that show their working
Apply a credit, a fee or a deposit to one vendor or across the whole store, and it appears as its own itemized line rather than a mystery change in the balance.
You decide the charge
Nothing is prorated behind your back. A vendor who moves in on the 14th is charged what you decide to charge them — the system does not invent a fraction and hope you agree.
Rent and sales, netted
One settlement run nets sales against rent, commission and fees, then pays the balance by ACH or printed check. The vendor sees every component that produced their number.
Questions worth asking
Can a vendor pay rent at the register?
Yes — rent and balance payments can be taken through the POS, and they post straight to that vendor’s ledger.
What if a vendor owes more than they sold?
The balance carries. Their ledger shows what is outstanding, and the next cycle settles against it rather than resetting.
Do you track contracts and renewal dates?
Not yet. Rent, commission, fees and balances are handled; formal contract records are not something we do today, and we would rather tell you that now.
Can I change a rate mid-year?
Yes. Rates are per vendor and take effect from the cycle you set them in; history stays as it was charged.
