Reselling products is one of the best ways to earn money online. On a reselling platform, you have to find and sell items to internet users at a higher price. If you like the product, you can order it for yourself. If you find the right products and people buy the item with the URL you’ve shared, you can make a good profit without investing a single Rupee into the reselling business. Reselling apps in India are also good alternatives to online shopping apps that onboard only sellers with the Goods and Service Tax number. This is because you can sell products online on a reseller app without registering a business or applying for the GST number if your turnover is lower than the required limit (40 lakhs). In India, you’ll find several reselling apps. Here’s the list of top applications among the lot:
Best reseller apps
Meesho
Meesho has onboarded over 10 million resellers. It is the most popular reselling app in India. When you run Meesho, the application plays an introduction video that teaches you the process of reselling on Meesho. Once you watch the video, you must select a category or product you want to sell. There are 150+ categories to browse and hundreds of thousands of products to choose from. When you find an item, you must share it with people to whom you want to sell the item. The Meesho app features a dedicated sharing button. If the person buys the item and makes the payment, you must place an order with Meesho. The application lets you set the profit margin. For example, if the item’s price is 4000 Rs, you can resell it for 4500 where 500 Rs is your profit. Meesho has the option to copy the product’s description to the clipboard so that you don’t have to rewrite the description while sharing the product. Meesho has a feature called “sales target”. When you reach the target, you’ll be given extra incentives.
Reseller apps like Meesho
GlowRoad
According to the company that has launched this app, you can earn up to 50000 Rs per month with GlowRoad. Unlike Meesho that lets you explore its collection without registering an account, you must verify your phone number and log in to GlowRoad to explore the categories. GlowRoad has 1000s of products grouped in 100s of categories. Most of the items available on GlowRoad are priced at a wholesale rate, according to GlowRoad. The application lets you join the “Membership club” through which you can find members exclusive deals. It lets business create their online store. The store will have only the items sold/manufactured by the business.
Shop101
Shop101 is a reselling app used by around a million users and 20k+ wholesalers. The company has successfully handled over a million transactions worth 100+ million dollars. You can get 101 Rs off on your first order if you’re a buyer. Shop101 has many categories and various types of items. It makes payments to resellers on time.
Benefits of reselling apps
Unlike shopping apps such as Amazon, Flipkart that require GST registration, you won’t be asked to submit a GST number to resell products such as saree, clothes, jewelry, etc. You can get started for free and start earning money online by simply sharing the links to the products. The application will generate a special link/URL.
Are the applications safe or trustworthy? Yes, the top 3 reselling apps in India I’ve shared above have raised several million dollars to support their operations. Some of the biggest firms have funded the operations of Meesho, GlowRoad, and Shop101. When it comes to quality, the products may or may not be of good quality as most of the products are unbranded or cheap duplicates of the branded ones. For example, if you search for “levis” on Meesho, the reseller app will show t-shirts labeled “levis”. No one would know whether the t-shirt is authentic unless a user buys the item and shares his feedback.
Who handles the delivery? The company behind the apps ship and deliver the product. All you have to do is get customers for the company. The companies have a return policy. They accept online payment as well as cash on delivery orders. They also have a dedicated customer support team if you need any help.
