What is a POS system with online store?

These are POS systems where it is also possible to sell goods online. This is possible with digital POS systems that provide you with an interface to various online store providers or an Open API interface for your own programming. Digital or cloud POS systems are basically modern cash registers that have many more options and come with a few extras. As a rule, these POS systems run on a tablet basis and are much easier to use, smarter and more flexible. The option of equipping the checkout system with an online store opens up completely new possibilities for retailers to sell goods via several channels at the same time. This offers considerable added value for customers, meaning that your sales will increase enormously within a very short time. You can find out which online store is right for you in an informative consultation with one of our consultants.

The Cloud Checkout System - LocaFox Edition

With LocaFox, you are provided with an Android-based tablet. The LocaFox software is installed on this tablet, which later serves as your cash register. In addition to the tablet, the basic equipment of the POS system also includes a receipt printer and a cash drawer from ANKER. If desired, you can expand your POS system with additional accessories, such as a label printer, a hand scanner, a tablet holder and much more. Of course, we are also available to advise you on the choice of a suitable card terminal. Thus, you have the same options as with a stationary cash register, which, however, is more space-saving and well suited for smaller sales areas. If you need several cash registers for your store, they can also be linked together.

Functionality and field of application of the cash register software

Basically, it can be said that tablet POS systems give retailers many more options than standard cash registers. Especially when it comes to creating and managing products, backing up data, providing statistics and analyzing business figures.

You are well equipped for any challenge. You can choose from various function packages that you need for your company. If your needs change over time, you can also adapt the functionality of the software.

Another advantage of POS systems with an online store is that you have another sales channel at your disposal to sell your goods.

You also have completely new marketing methods at your disposal to draw attention to your products. For example, you can send online newsletters to your customers and thus provide information on products or draw attention to promotions in the retail sector.

Online store connection

A major advantage of the Touch POS system is that you are also able to connect external systems to your POS system with the POS software from LocaFox. This not only gives you the option of customizing the POS system according to your wishes, but also offers a wide range of functionality options. The Open API interface enables you to connect your business to an online store or to link it to external store or merchandise management systems. With the help of the interface, which the digital POS systems have, you do not have to manage 2 systems (stationary POS & online store) independently of each other, but can simply control them via 1 system. All stock and products are synchronized so that you always have the right products with the right stock available in both the stationary store and the online store. It is even possible to select the sales channel through which products are to be sold. For example, if you only want to sell certain items in a bricks-and-mortar store or only sell other items online.

LocaFox works with various online store providers, which simplifies the linking of the POS system. Thanks to the Open API interface, many other online stores can of course also be connected to the LocaFox POS system.

  • Digital reports: All reports, such as the receipt journal, the daily financial statements and the cash book are available to you in digital form. This means that you have an overview of every single transaction and can call them up in the back office at any time.
  • Analyses & Statistics: In the LocaFox back office, detailed analyses and statistics are available to give you even more accurate insights into your products, sales, margins, etc. The LocaFox POS system is designed to provide you with additional support in your day-to-day business.
  • Updates + further development: The LocaFox software is constantly being developed to continue to meet the wishes and needs of our customers. Updates are released several times a year, bringing new features and bug fixes to make the app run even better for them.

Connection to external systems

Another great advantage of cloud POS systems is that with LocaFox POS software you are also able to connect external systems to your POS system. This gives you not only the option to customize the POS system according to your wishes, but also a wide range of possibilities in terms of functionality. The Open-API interface allows you to connect your store with an online store or to couple it with external store or merchandise management systems.

Online store:

  • PrestaShop: On the one hand, we work with the PrestaShop online store. This can be easily coupled with the LocaFox checkout system. The LocaFox back office continues to serve as the "master" system, so that all products can be sold both online and in-store.
  • 1&1 IONOS: On the other hand, we work together with the 1&1 IONOS Online Shop. When coupled with 1&1 IONOS Online Shop, IONOS also becomes the new "master" system. This means that your products are created and managed in the IONOS portal.
