Shopify POS & Unified Commerce
For a brand with stores, the storefront is only half the business. The other half is the showroom floor, and the two have to behave as one. SDG builds unified commerce on Shopify POS so in-store and online share a single back office: one view of inventory, orders, and customers, with the omnichannel experiences shoppers now expect.
Retail and omnichannel brands we build for
One back office, in store and online
Shopify POS connects in-person selling to the same platform that runs your online store, so there is one source of truth rather than two systems to reconcile. Inventory, orders, and customer profiles stay in sync across every location and the storefront, which removes overselling, ends end-of-day reconciliation, and gives head office real visibility. Built on the Shopify platform, it inherits the 99.9% uptime and the world-class checkout that make peak trading days a non-event.
Omnichannel experiences that actually work
Modern shoppers move between channels mid-purchase, and the experience has to follow them. We implement buy online pickup in store, ship from store, local delivery, and endless aisle so a sale is never lost to a single location’s stock. Clienteling gives associates the full picture, online and in-store history alike, to deliver genuine service, while role-based staff permissions keep each store controlled. Customer data captured at the counter flows back into one profile, sharpening loyalty and marketing everywhere you sell.
Hardware, payments, and the integrations underneath
Great retail runs on the boring things working flawlessly. We specify and configure POS hardware for the counter or the floor, enable Shopify Payments and Tap to Pay, and, most importantly, connect POS to the systems that run the business. Where you operate a dedicated order management, inventory, or ERP platform, we integrate it so retail and ecommerce share governed, reconciled data, connecting Shopify with systems like Manhattan Active Omni, NetSuite, and more.
