If you’re already using Shopify for your online store, having your online sales and store integrated is the best advantage it offers. Inventory, customer data, and orders are all synced in real time, which makes managing the business much more efficient and reduces errors. > > **Cons**: What I don’t like is the cost structure and the fact that it works best and its way easier when you re using all Shopify tools integrated to the system. Therefore, besides the Shopify subscription, it can become expensive when you need to upgrade your plan to use some of the features not available in the basic plan, plus getting the Shopify tools for compatibility. Another downside is that it’s heavily retail-focused. If your business isn’t centered around selling physical products, or if you need more specialized POS features, it may feel limiting. NerdWallet Also, some features (like advanced reporting, staff management, or customization) are locked behind higher plans, which can be frustrating as you grow. > > Overall, Shopify POS is a powerful solution, especially for businesses already using Shopify for e-commerce. It creates a very easy connection between online and in-person sales, making operations easier to handle. ----- ### "If you use Shopify, this is the only POS you should be looking at" — 5.0/5 > **Anonymous User** | *February 26, 2026* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Shopify POS is a nicely packaged POS option that works great if you already have a shopify store. It uses the shopify catalog for your ecommerce site which basically mean zero setup. Buy a tablet and card reader and you're running\! > > **Cons**: Some more customization would be nice on the receipt. It would be cool to be able to add some more design options to it to allow it to look custom for your business. Other than just the logo > > We ran an online store for 4 years before adding POS. It was a no brainer decision for us since we were very happy with shopify and knew this wouldnt take much to setup. It has been great to use and integrates seamlessly with our online ordering system ----- ### "Shopify Review" — 5.0/5 > **Dusiant** | *February 9, 2026* | Program Development | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Shopify POS is seamless, real-time integration between online and physical stores. Users highly value that inventory, customer data, and sales are automatically synchronized across all channels, eliminating the need to manually reconcile stock or customer records. > > **Cons**: I believe significant drawbacks to Shopify POS include high costs for necessary features, which adds an additional $89 per month > > Shopify is widely regarded as an industry-leading, user-friendly e-commerce platform, ideal for quickly launching online stores without needing coding expertise. It offers excellent, secure, and fast-loading checkout experiences with strong POS integration ----- ### "Perfect if you already use shopify" — 5.0/5 > **David** | *October 13, 2024* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: connects with our online e-commerce, csm can follow and easier books to keep > > **Cons**: No free equipment as oppposed to square competitor ----- ### "Imperfect, but a must-have if using Shopify" — 4.0/5 > **Eric** | *May 23, 2025* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: The interface between Shopify's ecommerce platform and its POS platform is almost seamless. Some very helpful natively included tools connect the two. To name a few: - You can easily make an order in Shopify POS for shipping or fulfillment from another location. - Store credit is interchangeable between POS and online. - The mobile app is excellent. - Setting up a new location (such as a pop-up market) is intuitive. - Inventory, customers, orders, reporting, and discounts are seamlessly integrated between Shopify e-commerce and Shopify POS. > > **Cons**: There are many features that you would assume are natively included in Shopify POS that are not present. Here are some striking examples: - You can not look up past orders by customer phone number. - You can not generate a list of past customer orders by line item. - Fractional product quantities are not supported. You can't sell 1.522 kg of apples. You would have to sell 1522 grams of apples, and price per gram. - Shopify POS is not supported on desktop computers. - Offline functionality is severely limited. - Printed receipts are capped at 50 line items. > > Shopify POS is improving all the time, but still has room to grow. If you are already relying on Shopify for e-commerce, Shopify POS is by far the best choice for in-person sales despite its limitations. It's tempting but ultimately inferior to use another POS platform and set up the necessary integrations between it and Shopify ecomm. If you are not relying on Shopify for e-commerce, investigate Shopify POS very carefully. Don't presume that it has certain features -- generate a complete list of every POS feature that you rely on, especially features that are specific to in-person sales, and verify that they are included natively. ----- Page: 1 / 11\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ca/software/205337/shopify-pos?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ca/software/205337/shopify-pos) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
