We are transitioning our store to shopify POS. We have a coffee shop area, and bought the shopify POS hardware, works great. However, my wife wants a different checkout for the main store. She wants a setup where there are two screens, one facing the customer showing them their order as it’s being rung up. We have seen this at other places we’ve gone. Is there a shopify POS hardware setup like this? Or can you purchase non-shopify hardware and get it working with shopify?
Topic summary
Main issue: Need a dual-screen checkout for a retail store using Shopify POS (Point of Sale), with one screen facing the customer to show the order live as items are rung up.
Context: The business is transitioning to Shopify POS. Shopify POS hardware is working well in a coffee shop area, but the main store needs a different setup featuring a customer-facing display.
Key questions:
- Does Shopify provide a POS hardware configuration that supports a built-in customer-facing display?
- If not, can non-Shopify/third-party hardware be used with Shopify POS to create a two-screen setup that shows the order to customers in real time?
