Hi! I'm Bagsworth.

I help you sell three ways and get paid faster.

  • A price on it
  • Or let them bid
  • Or take an offer

you wanted a shop,
not a second job.

If you make, curate or resell things, the big platforms usually ask for more time, more money and more compromise than you planned for.

  • Your name gets buried. Buyers remember the marketplace, not your shop.
  • The bill arrives before the sales do. Monthly plans and app fees add up fast.
  • It’s built for a team. You wanted to list products, not learn software.
  • Your stock isn’t one-size-fits-all. Some items need a price, others need an auction.

three ways to sell, one shop

Most listings will be fixed price. Auctions and offers are there for the items that need a different answer.

Fixed price

Set a price, choose a quantity and let people check out normally. Stock comes down automatically as items sell.

Auctions

For the rare, the one-off and the item that deserves a bidding process. Reserves, automatic bidding and relisting are included.

Offers

Works alongside fixed price or auction. Set the range you’re happy with and buyers can make an offer in the middle.

Most sellers live on fixed price and use the other two when they need them. That’s the point.

questions, answered

  • How does JollySimple's pricing work?

    JollySimple charges 2% of what an item sells for, however it sells, plus the card processing fee. No setup fee, no monthly charge, no listing fee. No setup fees, no monthly charges, no listing fees. If an item doesn't sell, you pay nothing — our incentives are completely aligned with yours.

  • What cards can we take?

    We use Stripe, so all major UK and international cards can be taken. Visa, Mastercard, American Express (Amex), Maestro etc.

  • How long does it take to get my site live?

    A couple of hours is about right. Once signed up, our team can help configure your site, apply your branding, and get your first items live. There is no lengthy technical setup to sit through.

  • Will my shop look like my brand?

    Yes, completely. Your site runs with your logo, colours, and branding throughout. Attach your own domain if you have one! Buyers interact with your brand, not ours. We operate entirely in the background.

  • Is JollySimple suitable for charities and fundraisers?

    Absolutely. Because there are no upfront costs, there's no financial risk if fundraising targets fall short — perfect for galas, silent auctions, or annual fundraising sales. Or, of course, a continuous revenue stream when selling ongoing donations.

  • Can I sell the same item three different ways?

    Every item is set up on its own, so you choose per item: a price, an auction, or offers. Mix them however your stock suits, in one shop, out of one basket, through one checkout. Change your mind later and you can switch an item over.

  • How is this different from Shopify?

    Size, mostly. Shopify is built for shops with a team behind them: themes, apps, plans, and a monthly bill whether you sell anything or not. JollySimple is one shop, set up in a couple of hours, with nothing to pay until something sells. You also get auctions and offers as standard, which on Shopify means finding an app and paying for it.

  • Is my data and my customers' data secure?

    Yes. All data is encrypted in transit via SSL. JollySimple is run by Aversa Limited, a UK registered company (No. 09898353), and we take data protection seriously. We never sell your customers' data to anybody.

  • Can I try it before committing?

    Yes — start for free and explore before you list a thing. There's also a live demo site ("Bond Auctions") you can browse right now to see exactly how a JollySimple site looks and feels.

  • Can I run the system just occassionaly?

    Absolutely! If you have an event or fundrasier, or just doing a big clearout of customer returns or excess stock, set up your JollySimple site for just the time you need it. It will cost you nothing to run during your 'down time'.

  • Can we ask for customisations or extra features?

    Like all platform software, we are always improving what we offer. If you have a good idea, or there's a show stopper feature missing, get in touch as we'll see what we can do.

  • Can I just put a price on things?

    Yes, and most sellers do for most of their stock. Set a price and a quantity, and buyers fill a basket and check out the ordinary way. Stock comes down as it sells. Auctions are there for the items that genuinely need one, and 'Make Offer' works on either, so a buyer can always start a conversation about the price.

  • Is my data safe?

    Our servers all run on Microsoft's well regarded cloud service, Azure. The data centres are all very secure, and our databases are backed up every hour to a different Azure data centre in the UK.

  • I'm a bit techie! What's the stack you're using?

    JollySimple is built on a modern, scalable cloud architecture designed for high performance selling and secure data handling.
