Costco Platform Pricing
Quote-Based Setup for High-Volume Grocery Service Providers
The Costco Platform is designed for businesses with a physical location and the operational capacity to handle bulk orders. Whether you're offering in-store pickup, delivery, or split-item shopping, Guest Groceries builds your system around your model—not the other way around.
Setup & Platform Access
Costco Platform Setup
-
Pricing is provided after an initial phone consultation, based on your desired features, pricing strategy, and fulfillment model.
Monthly Platform Access
-
Guest Groceries manages the store structure and product database. Operators do not have direct access to the database or product catalog. Pricing can be configured in one of two ways:
-
In-store pricing model (live pricing pulled from Costco)
-
Custom pricing model (required for split-item shopping and advanced markup strategies)
Commission Fee
-
The commission rate will vary based on your operational setup (e.g., hub, single store pickup, or higher-activity locations). A tiered commission structure will be provided to you after the initial consultation.
Consultation Process
-
To begin, submit the contact form. After your form is reviewed, we’ll schedule a phone consultation to discuss your setup and provide a customized quote, including the appropriate commission tier.
Split-Item Shopping (Optional)
-
Available to operators with a physical location. Requires a custom pricing structure and additional setup.
-
All platform access and pricing configurations are managed by Guest Groceries to ensure a seamless, scalable solution tailored to your business model.
