Ship to Home: Turn Sellouts Into Sales

Ship to Home · Built into atVenu POS

Sell Out Without Losing Sales.
Produce Only What You’ve Already Sold.

Festivals and fairs use Ship to Home to reduce upfront merch risk, keep lines moving, and keep selling popular items after they’re gone on-site—all tied back to the event.

Lean Inventory
Stop overproducing before the event. Only make what sells.
Keep Selling Post-Sellout
Capture every sale—even when shelves are empty.

Before vs. After: Ship to Home

What changes when you turn it on.

Before (No Ship to Home)

  • Overproduce upfront → cash tied up & leftovers
  • Hot items sell out → lost revenue & disappointed fans
  • Longer lines when staff explains “sold out”
  • Messy post-event reconciliations & manual make-goods

After (With atVenu Ship to Home)

  • Happier fans — buy now, shipped later
  • More revenue — keep selling through sellouts
  • Simpler ops — SMS address capture keeps lines moving
  • Lean inventory & clean settlements tied to the event

The Problem: Overstock vs. Sellouts

Ordering heavy pre-show burns cash and storage. Ordering light means disappointed fans and lost revenue. Ship to Home lets you do both: stay lean and capture every sale.

Reduce Upfront Risk

Lower pre-event production. Replace guesswork with guaranteed orders.

Never Say “Sold Out”

Keep taking orders for hot items. Produce later, fulfill quickly.

Faster Lines

Fans can complete shipping info by text after purchase—no bottlenecks.

Clean Settlements

All Ship to Home orders roll into the event’s reporting and settlements.

How Ship to Home Works

Built right into atVenu’s POS—no extra systems. Toggle eligible items, sell through sellouts, fulfill post-event.

1

Flag Eligible Items

Choose which SKUs/sizes can be shipped later. Great for sizes/colors that move fast.

2

Keep Selling

When on-hand hits zero, keep taking orders in POS. Fans pay now, choose ship-to address.

3

Export & Produce

After the event, export order + shipping details. Produce exactly what was sold—nothing more.

4

Ship & Settle

Fulfill to the fan’s door. Orders roll into event reporting and settlements for clean books.
