FAQ
What is dropshipping?
Dropshipping allows businesses to source and sell products without any upfront costs related to product inventory. With dropshipping, you select the products you want to sell from a supplier, such as Modalyst. List these products on your online store and set your own prices. When a customer purchases one of your products, they complete payment with your store. Then, you buy the item from the supplier on your customer’s behalf. The supplier fulfills the order, shipping products directly to your customer’s address.
Why should I start dropshipping?
Becoming a dropshipper is a great business opportunity. With dropshipping, you have another way to sell a variety of products online without any inventory risk. Product inventory and shipping are all handled by the supplier.
