Ready to get started with Retail POS? This setup checklist will help you configure Retail POS for your store, so can start selling in no time. Run through the steps below to get started!
Set your general account settings
Set up outlets (stores and locations) and registers (tills).
Add in users (staff) — set level of access for different staff members.
Set up payments (e.g. cash, credit card, etc.). There are two ways to set up payments:
- Integrated payments save time by linking Retail POS to your payment terminal and third-party payment services. Contact us here to discuss the best integrated payment option for you.
- Non-integrated payments are more time-consuming and manually processed. These require you to type the payment amount into the payment terminal, then enter the payment in Retail POS to confirm the payment is accepted. We strongly recommend using integrated payments where possible.
Make sure you’ve set up your receipt template.
Set up and upload your products
Set up your product catalog based on your goals.
Add products individually or bulk upload products via CSV/XLSX.
Retail POS tip: copy and save backups of your product list(s) when updating products.
