Custom Pricing integrates with Shopify Point of Sale when on the Complete plan. With this integration, Customer Pricing discounts are automatically applied to your customers orders within Shopify POS.
This article provides instructions on how to connect Custom Pricing to Shopify POS, create an order, and outlines some important considerations.
Note: This integration is compatible with Custom Pricing Accelerated Method (V3) only.
Alert: Shopify is currently encountering issues with iOS devices not working properly on their POS application. As a result Custom Pricing discounts are not being calculated properly when using iOS devices on Shopify's POS application. Shopify is currently working on fixing these incompatibility issues.
Functionality
Custom Pricing applies its discounts via the Shopify POS Discount section. This happens when the following is true:
- The product is discounted in Custom Pricing, the customer has a relevant Custom Pricing tag, and both the product and the customer are added to the cart.
- The products have quantity breaks discounts in Custom pricing and multiple products are added to the cart.
Note: If quantity breaks discounts are only available to specific customers, those customers must have the relevant tag and be added to the cart as well.
When the products and customers are added to the cart, the discount is applied and is noted as from Bold Custom Pricing. This note also appears on the order in the Shopify admin.
Important considerations
- The last discount applied to an order will override all previously applied discounts — this includes Custom Pricing discounts.
- Custom Pricing is not able to change the price of the product on the POS product page. Discounts are only shown in the cart.
- The quantity breaks grid is not able to display on the POS product page. Quantity breaks discounts are only shown in the cart when multiple products are added.
