ConnectStore POS
Read full descriptionHide full description
DON'T JUST TAKE THE PAYMENT. RECORD THE SALE. At the end of the day, you know what you sold, how much you sold and how your customers paid. A card reader keeps the amount and nothing else. ConnectStore POS keeps the whole sale: every item, who sold it, when it happened and how the customer paid. FOUR TAPS. SALE DONE. 1. Select the product from the photo gallery, search or barcode scanner. 2. Review items, quantities and total, plus a custom amount when you need one. 3. Select a payment method: card, payment link, cash with change or anything else. 4. Done. The receipt goes to your customer by QR code, link or email, in their language. WHO IT'S FOR Shops and service providers. If your customer picks, you ring it up and get paid on the spot, this is for you. - You sell item by item and want to know what left the shelf - You close the sale away from the counter, in the fitting room or at a market stall - You need one more register on a busy day, with no equipment lease - You charge customers who aren't there, with a payment link FREE MEANS FREE Selling on your own costs nothing on the Individual plan: - No ads, on any screen - Unlimited products, services and sales - Photos, barcodes and AI-written product descriptions - Reports: daily summary, sales, products sold and transactions - Receipts in English, Portuguese, Spanish, French or Italian Not a trial. Never expires. No credit card. The only limit is one active device at a time. ALREADY HAVE A CARD READER? KEEP IT. Paid in cash, on your own card reader or any other way? The sale is recorded the same way and costs nothing. A fee only applies when the payment is captured inside the app, through Stripe: Stripe's fee plus 0.5% from ConnectStore POS. That way you take payments with Stripe card readers, keyed-in cards and payment links. And, where available, Tap to Pay on iPhone: contactless, right on your phone. WHEN YOU HAND IT OVER, GO PROFESSIONAL When someone else is at the counter, the Professional plan shows who made each sale and why an amount looks off. It's billed per active device per month, with no setup fee and no contract: - Web portal with an operations dashboard - Users with roles and permissions - Devices authorized one by one - Sales Activity & Audit Trail, kept for 90 days - ERP and Web API integration - Remote onboarding and training GOOD TO KNOW BEFORE YOU INSTALL - You need internet: there's no offline mode. - The receipt is a sales receipt, not a tax document. - No inventory tracking, discounts or partial refunds. BUILT FOR YOU TO SELL WITH CONFIDENCE Running since June 2024 in Brazil, the United States and Europe. Backups every 15 minutes, 24/7 monitoring and payments through Stripe: card details never pass through ConnectStore POS.
