- What is the best POS system for a bookstore?
-
Bookstores need a POS system that can manage and organise a diverse inventory, accept all payment types, and connect to leading ecommerce and loyalty platforms. The best bookstore POS systems will also have online connectivity, with cloud storage and 24/7 access, so business owners can manage their store from any location and at any time.
- What POS integrations should a bookstore use?
-
Bookstores typically require three key integrations to remain competitive. First, they should partner with an e-commerce platform to sell books online and build a worldwide customer base. Next, they should connect with email marketing platforms like Mailchimp to keep in contact with customers. Finally, they should link their POS with accounting software to easily manage bookkeeping and financial reporting.
- Can a POS system help with inventory management?
-
Yes! One of the main features of our POS systems is our sophisticated inventory management tools. With this feature, you can quickly process, list, and sort books by genre, author, and more!
Stock takes that would have taken hours to complete manually can now be done in a matter of minutes.
