Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureEnter custom data and save it with your orders. Add fields directly to products or collect data during post purchase. Required values and reminders supported for product fields. Staff members can collect this information during POS checkout. The entered values appear on the invoice. Use the data to extend the order actions within the admin or with ERP and CRM system.
Shopify POS only searches product titles and SKUs — if your store uses part numbers, account numbers, or internal codes, staff are left guessing. MetaSeek fixes that. Connect any metafield to POS search so staff can instantly find the exact product, variant or customer and add them to the cart in seconds. Works with MPNs, GTINs, internal SKUs, customer account numbers, loyalty IDs and more.
