Only Shopify POS unifies online and in-store sales and makes checkout seamless

SINGAPORE, July 15, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Shopify today announced the availability of the all-new Shopify POS and integrated hardware, Wisepad 3, to merchants in Singapore. With things nearly back to normal, Singaporeans are returning to physical stores, even as they continue to do some of their shopping on marketplaces, social media platforms and mobile apps. The only point-of-sale system that seamlessly connects to Shopify stores and helps merchants sell everywhere their customers are, Shopify POS will enable Singaporean merchants to better connect with their customers in Singapore and elsewhere.

"From tracking inventory to customer service management, selling in person is still harder than it has to be, especially with mobile-savvy Singaporean consumers who are shopping across diverse channels, apps and platforms," says Bharati Balakrishnan, Regional Head, SEA, Shopify. "Shopify POS will help Singaporean merchants manage this multitude of channels by unifying their online and offline sales."

Merchant Success Stories

At Swee Lee - one of Asia's largest and among its oldest music stores - "the biggest benefit is for our customers and logistics team, because of the speed and accuracy that transactions can be fulfilled," said Laurent Le Graverend, Laurent Le Graverend, Group CTO of Swee Lee's parent company, Caldecott Music Group. "Customer details can even be updated on the fly - knowing if someone is a guitarist or a drummer helps us target different customer segments in marketing campaigns," he says.

"We started using the POS pro app in February when we moved to our new warehouse, and it has seriously improved our customer engagement and efficiency," says UglyFood's General Manager, Sean Goh. UglyFood aims to eliminate food waste and reimagine the food ecosystem by turning perfectly good (but unattractive) fruit and vegetables into fresh juice, salads and fruit tea.

"The main thing is to ensure that we spend less time trying to iron out issues and more time engaging with our customers," said Tan Chiew Ling, co-founder of luxury women's fashion and lifestyle boutique, Nana & Bird.
