Point Of Sale (POS)

POS Your customers can order in your online shop: this is efficient and saves you time.

But in some cases customers prefer to call, fax or place their order in person.

To manage the administration of your orders, customers and product stock, you need a POS (Point Of Sale).

The POS app actually works in the same way as your shop, with the difference that you as the merchant can place the order in an optimized interface.

POS

Usability

Our concept simple and easy to use has been very effective for our webshop software. We continue in that direction with the POS app.

We know that our customers prefer to experiment and discover things for themselves. The POS app offers an optimal user experience without the requirement for taking courses or having to consult complex manuals. Feel free to test the POS app and give us your feedback. Don't hesitate to contact our help desk for support if you have questions.

Automation

Let our technology work for you and save time. The POS app combines product inventory, orders, customer management and discounts in the same administration. The webshop and the POS are automatically synchronized.

If you want to further automate your administration, it's possible to forward orders from your webshop and the POS app to external applications. This can be done using the Order PUSH feature in the EasyWebshop API. This allows you to forward orders in real-time to accounting applications, invoicing software and to suppliers.

Compatibility

The POS app uses open standards, so you're not restrained to a specific platform or hardware. The POS app can be used independently of the webshop or in combination with it.

The POS app can be used on Linux, Mac and Windows, on a PC, laptop, tablet and smartphone. It's available in 20 languages and 34 currencies.

Extra hardware is optional and can be added when needed. You can use any barcode scanner, receipt printer or payment terminal. The POS app offers all payment methods including bank transfer, Bitcoin, credit cards, debit cards, cash payment and payment in the webshop.

In addition, the POS app is compatible with all your webshop features: product management, inventory management, order management, customer management, discounts and surcharges, product variations and parameters, volume discounts, customer groups, VAT and invoicing, shipping, payment methods, payment costs and the EasyWebshop API.
