EFTPOS Machine Australia

[Kate_Holt]

Firstly, appolgies if this topic has been discussed recently. I have been on a mission to find an EFTPOS Machine that integrates with Shopify POS for our retail store.  We use ANZ EFTPOS Machine, to which we have to manually add in the sale amount to process the payment.  We have had a few issues with staff making human errors processing payments this way.  It would be ideal for an integrated system to automatically send the amount to our machine.

Has there been an update with any integrated machines in Australia?

Thank you

Hi Kate,

Nick here from Shopify.

No need to apologize, it’s not easy to sieve through all the posts in the community to see if something was asked previously, plus it is a very valid question.

Even though Shopify Payments has been released and works in Australia, it is still only available for online transactions. Regarding the model of POS hardware you are looking for, there are two places where you can find POS hardware which is compatible for Australian stores.

• POS99 - I did find the model (EFTPOS) which you are looking for here, but just to make sure all the components you need are Shopify compatible.

• Gorilla Lab - I had a look and don’t believe Gorilla Lab has EFTPOS hardware, but there are some other potential options available should you want to explore them a little and see if they might be an option you might go down.

Regarding the card reader specifically, there is another document with some popular payment processors for card readers in Australia which you can see here. You can see the payment processors below also:

• Payment Express

• Cayan

Hopefully, this helps and you can get the equipment you are looking for. Any other questions, don’t hesitate to let me know.

All the best, Nick

Hi Nick,  

Thank you for your reply.  I'm specifically looking for a card reader for our retail (brick & mortar) store.  We have payment express as our online payment gateway, I did speak to them regarding their EFTPOS Terminals for our physical store however they do not integrate with Shopify.

I haven't heard of the other options so I will look further into those.

Thank you

Hi Kate, 

No problem at all. 

I couldn't find the EFTPOS terminal specifically in the Shopify compatible section search on POS99 but did find other parts of their equipment and maybe that explains why. The links above are all the POS hardware sites I know Shopify has compatible hardware with for Australia, so hoping you can find one which suits your needs. 

All the best, Nick

Thank you Nick, really appreciate your help.  I will investigate the links and reply back on here if I should find a EFTPOS machine that suits my needs.

We are also in need of integrated EFTPOS for our shopify site and are yet to find a solution. Any help would be appreciated!

Hi,

We have a Shopify website, and would change from our current POS (which has integrated EFTPOS) to Shopify POS in a heartbeat if it was offered. Integrated EFTPOS is a deal breaker for us. If we can't get it on Shopify POS, we'll look at another web/POS combo that does offer it.

Same boat here. 

Looking for integrated POS/EFTPOS and might have to leave Shopify to get it it seems. 

Looks like they are holding out so they can cash in on making it only work with their own payment gateway...

We have our website and 2 shops now with Shopify Pos. Currently using Tyro to make the payments but Shopify POS only shows external payment, meaning we have to double up on entering the transactions. When we're busy there's no time to enter twice so there's always transactions missing on Shopify. When will integration with an EFTPOS terminal happen? You have it available in USA, UK and Canada. Why not AUS? Thanks
