TheShoeParlour review for Point of Sale
Dec. 16, 2020
The point of sale app is very useful for seeing what orders have been made and for viewing analytics about the sales on that particular day such as the top products by net sales and the net payments by type. The point of sale also offers to set up custom payment methods such as a different credit card reader and gift vouchers for example which is very useful. The app is very convenient as it can be used on the ipad/till in store and can be downloaded on phones too which allows us to see how the store is doing from our mobile devices if we are not in the store. The only issue with the app is sometimes if we add new products to Shopify it does not sync properly and some products do not show up on the point of sale or some variants don't come up such as certain sizes could be missing, even though they are perfect and correct in Shopify and on our website. The only solution we found to this issue was to delete and uninstall the app and reinstall it and it seemed to have fixed it. Overall I would recommend the point of sale app, it takes a bit of time to get used to as it is quite different from a regular till and might take a bit of technology knowledge to get used to it, but once you get used to it and give it some time it is very handy to use and handy to keep track of everything happening in your shop. You can also see the orders that have been made online and in store and can filter through them which is another great feature.
