Does Shopify POS Cost Extra?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 9:52 pm

Shopify is a Canadian e-commerce company headquartered in Ottawa, Ontario. It is also the name of its proprietary e-commerce platform for online stores and retail point-of-sale systems. Shopify offers online retailers a suite of services “including payments, marketing, shipping and customer engagement tools to simplify the process of running an online store for small merchants.

Shopify was founded in 2004 by Tobias Lütke, Daniel Weinand, and Scott Lake after attempting to open Snowdevil, an online store for snowboarding equipment. Unsatisfied with the available e-commerce products at the time, Lütke and his team decided to build their own.

PRO TIP: If you are considering using Shopify POS, be aware that there is an additional cost for this service. While Shopify offers a free 14-day trial, you will be charged $29 per month for the POS service once the trial period is over. In addition, there is a 2.7% transaction fee for credit and debit card payments.

Does Shopify POS Cost Extra?

No, Shopify POS is included with all Shopify plans at no additional cost. With Shopify POS, you can sell in-person using your iPad, iPhone, or Android device, and accept payments anywhere.
