When you add a dropship product to your inventory, CommentSold will copy the product details, images, and information into a new product record on your Products page. As long as the supplier has available stock, you’ll be able to sell without inventory limitations.
Once added, you can publish these products to your mobile app and website, and share them on your social accounts. You can also feature dropship products in your live and short-form content. Learn how you can purchase product samples here.
Please Note: Dropship products will be treated as "First Paid, First Served" regardless of your shop's setting. This means that whichever customer pays first will secure a product.
