Figure Shop Simulator Online Sales Guide

Online sales arrived in the v0.7 update line as a second demand channel beside walk-in customers. Orders boost revenue and popularity when production keeps up—and punish shops that still hand-carry every tray. This guide explains when to enable the channel and how to support it.

What online sales change

  • Extra order volume beyond foot traffic
  • Stronger coupling between warehouse buffers and reputation
  • More value from printer workers and the Printer Engineer
  • A reason to watch the comments and management panels daily

If your offline loop is unstable, fix Getting Started basics and Automate Production before leaning on online orders.

Stock policy for orders

Keep deeper warehouse trays of movers. Online demand can drain displays that looked fine for walk-ins. Auto refill and stockers become mandatory; see Shelf Management and Stock Worker.

Economy rebalance note

The same update family rebalanced popularity progression. Do not assume old popularity unlock numbers from ancient videos still match—confirm gates in your hiring UI (Hire Employees).

When to disable online sales

Later builds added options to disable online sales and tune worker settings. Turn the channel off temporarily if you are remodeling, printing a perfection catalog, or recovering from a filament shortage. Re-enable when buffers return.

Pricing for two channels

Online buyers still see your tags. Use Pricing Strategy so you do not subsidize bulk orders. Premium and Epic SKUs should not be fire-sold just to clear a queue.

Updates Hub for patch context, Staff Hub for roles, Tools Hub for checklists.

Capacity planning for orders

Estimate how many trays leave the building on a busy offline day, then assume online adds a significant fraction on top. If that sum exceeds printer output, online is a popularity trap. Expand printers or reduce SKU variety before enabling the channel permanently.

Order hygiene

Clear stale production goals after big catalog changes so workers do not print retired experiments. Keep comments open—online customers still generate feedback that names missing figures.

Disable without shame

Disabling online sales during a perfection printing weekend is smart management, not failure. Re-enable when Automate Production buffers look healthy again.

Economy patch awareness

Because popularity curves were rebalanced with online sales, old “hire at X popularity” advice can be wrong. Always trust the live hiring UI over a year-old VOD.

Session takeaway for Figure Shop Simulator Online Sales Guide

Disable online orders during perfection printing weekends without guilt.

When this page stops answering your current bottleneck, jump to the linked sibling articles in the same category rather than rereading the entire wiki. Figure Shop Simulator rewards focused fixes: filament, shelves, staffing, or pricing—one lever per day usually beats five half-finished remodel projects.

Order pressure math

If offline rushes already empty two warehouse trays per day, online may empty three. Expand printers or shrink active SKUs before enabling the channel permanently. Disabling online sales during remodel or perfection pushes is professional inventory control, not cowardice.

Economy rebalances in the v0.7 family changed popularity curves—trust live hiring gates over ancient VODs when planning Hire Employees.

Channel policy sheet

Write a personal policy: online on when warehouse trays of movers exceed two days of demand; online off during remodel, perfection printing, or filament shortages. Re-enable only after Automate Production buffers look healthy.

Pricing still matters—underpriced online SKUs bleed silently. Review tags with Pricing Helper whenever you flip the channel.
