How it works

From idle stock to recovered cash — a transparent, end-to-end workflow built on top of Tail Sourcing's procurement DNA.

01

Connect or upload

Sync from esourcing.tailsourcing.com, upload a CSV or fill in a quick form. Your inventory becomes ready-to-publish lots in minutes.

02

Publish to vetted buyers

Your lots reach a curated network of pre-qualified buyers. Receive offers, negotiate and approve with built-in workflows.

03

Close, ship & track

Generate the sale order, coordinate logistics and reconcile payment. Full traceability from listing to delivery.

Closing the deal, end to end

Beyond matching buyers and sellers, we cover the full closing workflow — contract, payment and even on-site visits.

Digital sale agreement

When an offer is accepted, both parties e-sign the sale order with terms, quantities, price and Incoterm. The signed PDF stays attached to the lot history.

Secure payment & escrow

Buyers pay via bank transfer or escrow managed by Tail Sourcing. Funds are released to the seller once delivery — or the agreed inspection — is confirmed.

Site visits & samples

Before buying, request a visit to the seller's facility, ask for extra photos or order a sample. Everything is coordinated from the lot's secure messaging.

Digital contract

How the contract between buyer and seller works

Every accepted offer is backed by a binding digital agreement — generated, signed and archived in minutes.

  1. 01

    Offer accepted

    When the seller accepts a buyer's offer, Tail Sourcing auto-generates a draft sale agreement with the lot details, agreed price, quantity, Incoterm and delivery window.

  2. 02

    Review & negotiate clauses

    Both parties review the draft inside the lot. They can request changes (payment terms, inspection rights, packaging) through tracked comments before signing.

  3. 03

    E-signature by both parties

    Authorised representatives sign electronically with audit trail (timestamp, IP, identity check). The signed PDF is stored against the lot and emailed to both companies.

  4. 04

    Execution & dispute protection

    The signed contract triggers payment / escrow and shipping milestones. If anything goes wrong, the agreement plus the full message history serve as evidence in our dispute process.

Contracts comply with eIDAS (EU) and ESIGN (US) regulations. Custom MSAs and NDAs available on Enterprise plans.
