Everything You Need to Manage Your Comic Shop

Digital pull list management that replaces paper, spreadsheets, and manual tracking. Streamline your operations from ordering to fulfillment.

Digital Pull List Management

Approve and manage customer pull lists digitally. No more paper, spreadsheets, or scattered notes. View all active pull lists by customer, see individual preferences for variants and special requests, pause or block customers who don't pick up items, and track fulfillment rates per customer—all in one centralized dashboard.

Ordering & Fulfillment

See weekly demand aggregated across all customers. Export order lists in CSV or PDF formats specifically formatted for Diamond, Lunar, and PRH distributors. Mark items as arrived to trigger automatic customer notifications, then mark as fulfilled when picked up. Track unfulfilled items aging beyond your pickup window.

Customer Self-Service

Customers manage their own pull lists on VerseDB.com. They browse comics using our comprehensive database, add individual issues or subscribe to entire series, specify variant preferences, and submit everything for your approval. This dramatically reduces manual data entry and errors on your end.

Automated Notifications

Customers are automatically notified when their items arrive and ready for pickup. Send automated reminders when the pickup window is closing to reduce no-shows. Customize notification templates and configure auto-approve settings based on your shop policies.

Customer Communication

Direct messaging with individual customers or bulk messaging to all pull list customers. Use message templates for new comic day announcements, delays, and special events. Build stronger relationships with your most loyal customers through streamlined communication.

Analytics & Insights

Track active pull lists trending over time. See your most requested series and publishers. Monitor fulfillment rates and customer lifetime value estimates. Discover trending titles across your customer base to inform your ordering and shelf space decisions.

Shop Profile on VerseDB

Your shop profile appears on VerseDB.com where collectors search for local stores. Manage your hours, location, photos, pull list policies, and special offerings. Connect with the community and attract new customers already discovering comics on VerseDB.

Multi-Store Management

Enterprise plan includes management for up to 5 locations from a single dashboard. Separate pull lists, staff permissions, and analytics for each location. Perfect for shop owners with multiple stores or small chains.

Staff Role Management
