Shopify POS

Shopify Inc. CA

Shopify POS turns a Shopify store into a shop floor till, and it is one of the few systems in this field whose vendor confirms integrated card readers in Luxembourg, Belgium and the Netherlands. It is a retail product, with no table plan and no kitchen screen.

Strengths / Weaknesses

Strengths

  • Vendor confirmed in-person card processing in Luxembourg, Belgium and the Netherlands
  • In-person card rate falls to 1.2 percent on the Advanced plan, the lowest in this comparison
  • Till app in French, German and Dutch, the only broad language set among the global players
  • Unlimited staff accounts on POS Pro, and a serious stock and purchase order module

Weaknesses

  • You pay twice, a Shopify plan plus 79 EUR per POS Pro location
  • Offline card payments are explicitly unavailable for retail locations in France
  • No eCDF VAT declaration and no FAIA audit file for Luxembourg
  • Needs a Shopify store even if you never sell a single item online

Verdict

If your business is already a Shopify store, Shopify POS is the obvious till and there is little to debate: the stock is shared, the customer file is shared, the card rate is excellent and the vendor sells it in all three Benelux countries. If your business is a restaurant, this is the wrong product and no add on fixes it. Read the per location pricing carefully before you open a second shop, because POS Pro is charged per site while the plan is charged per store.
