There’s a dirty little rumor going around that retail is dead. We’ve all seen the news; big brands such as Sears, KMart, Toys R Us, and  Footlocker are all shutting the doors on many of their stores. People do their shopping online these days. Except, that’s not entirely true. People do their shopping wherever it’s most convenient at the time. The new Shopify Tap & Chip Reader will help you to do business anywhere anytime.

Shopify is always introducing new features to their powerful commerce platform that allow you to sell seamlessly across all channels. And now you can sell even more seamlessly in person.

INTRODUCING Shopify Tap & Chip Reader

Shopify has built its platform to help you manage your sales across multiple channels, including in-person. And with that, they’re introducing a lineup of new Shopify POS hardware and features. These new features will be rolling out this summer and fall, and they’re intended to help merchants like you deliver quality service no matter where your customers decide to buy.

Shopify Tap & Chip Reader FEATURES

Imagine a world where commerce happens everywhere. Well, that’s the future we’re heading for. And with that in mind, Shopify will be releasing a new line of POS hardware this fall for US merchants. The Shopify Tap & Chip Reader will accept contactless payments such as Apple Pay and Google Pay. And it’ll also be able to process chip-enabled credit cards.

This feature was built with security in mind. Process payments with confidence and still have time to make meaningful connections with your customers. Preparation is key; this new feature will allow your customers to pay however they want.
