Point of Sale

This is really the best way to collect sales for your shop in person. Tip, if you use a qr code generator for the product sku and create labels with that, the pos app will read it just fine to pull your items for the sale. Honestly, it's faster than using a standard bar code to read it.

My only main complaint is that it always requires internet access. This is great 9/10 times. However, vendors like us who often sell at Ren Faires in the middle of some field somewhere where the cell phone tower was never meant to handle the types of volume that are suddenly thrust upon it, I am forced to use a backup payment terminal (square). I would give this 5 stars if true offline processing with cached store data was something that could be integrated.

Yes, I am very happy with the setup or the system and the process - but not so happy with the equipment...I have had a number of issues with the equipment not working properly - especially the chip reader

I love Shopify, making the switch over has been amazing, I have made all my girlfriends with shops convert too! Point of Sale is great, I wish there was a way though to mark items on sale directly from an iPad, instead of getting on to the Shopify website on a computer, and also show how much a discount is on each individual item, instead of just showing the amount off at the bottom total. but besides that, its amazing

1. The app won't integrate with any other card reader other than their Stripe machine. We spent $500 on their machine only to realise it doesn't accept Eftpos cards, which is New Zealand's most popular debit card.
2. There is no way to process an In-Store pick up through POS. We have customers come into store daily who want to order special items in however there is no way to create an order in POS with a button to notify the customer that their order is ready for collection In-Store.
3. The app does not display product SKU's when searching for items. This makes it very difficult to search for products by SKU as it only displays the Size/Colour etc and often results in our staff selling an incorrect product.
4. There is no way to refund orders to store credit, only a gift voucher which messes with our accounting system.
5. There is no way for our warehouse to "Fulfil" an order on the POS Go device. So when customers come in to collect their order, they have to log in to the desktop version to fulfil an order.
I have contacted Shopify multiple times about these issues and they couldn't care less. They keep releasing "Updates" but don't actually include any of the necessary features that people are actually asking for.

Nach über 20 Jahren Erfahrung mit Kassensystemen habe ich endlich eine POS-Lösung gefunden die den Alltag im Handel extrem vereinfacht.
Die App ist Einfach, Intuitiv, stabil, bietet alles was man im Alltag braucht und noch etliche nützliche Features darüber hinaus. Multichannel ist nicht länger ein wünschenswerter Gedanke sondern wird mit Shopify POS ohne Hürden umgesetzt.
Unser Team und unsere Kunden sind jeden Tag aufs neue begeistert!
Es gibt nichts Besseres.

Love the app; simple to use, can look back on customer orders and notes; easy connection to card swipe devices. Just wish there was a way to send quick notes en masse to my clients without having to pay for another app to use the data I've collected.

After using other POS systems, I was quite pleased with Shopify! To be honest, there have been a few challenging moments, however, they were resolved quickly by Shopify. I have mixed feelings about the a la cart apps, but at the end of the day, I like having a pletheroa of options to build my store the way I want it to be. There is room for improvement, but from what I’ve seen these past 2 years, Shopify is continually working to create a POS system that is innovative, easy to use, and ahead of the game!

While my experience with Shopify POS has generally been positive, there are a couple of challenges. The barcode reading feature doesn't always work smoothly, and I've noticed that tap pay often disables itself. Additionally, toggling back and forth between functions seems to generate false abandoned carts, which can be a bit frustrating. It's worth noting that these issues seem to be affecting my business, so I'd appreciate any insights or solutions to improve these aspects of the system.

Prior to Shopify FOH our online retail and in store retail were 2 different channels. This meant no data was being shared across and also no integrated payments. Since using Shopify FOH we have grown our customer database and our direct sales from our newsletter database has doubled over the first year.

I have been using the free version for 2 years. Although it wasn't perfect, it did the job. The last couple of months have been terrible, but even worse, the last week or so. Completely unusable. So slow. The time it take to do a product search is way too long and the lagging is terrible. I can honestly say, it is not fit for purpose. Customers are waiting too long. The extra steps to add something to the cart and no more 'save cart' is very disappointing. I would not recommend this app to anyone in it's current state. Side note - When using an IPAD, if you connect a barcode scanner via bluetooth, the keyboard disappears. If you have variables, you still have to go into the product and select it, but you cannot because there is no keyboard.
