Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featurePOS e-Sign lets retail staff capture waivers and customer consent at checkout. Customers can tap Agree; the app instantly generates a branded PDF and saves it to Content > Files. Attach the waiver reference to the order or customer and export anytime. Customize header/logo and policy text; add optional questions (e.g., initials, ID). Works with Shopify POS - no extra accounts or hardware.
SignShield collects e-signatures on waivers, contracts and consent forms for Shopify orders. Write a document in the built-in editor, start from a template or upload a PDF, then link it to products. When a customer orders a linked product, they get a signing link by email and sign on any device, with automatic reminders if they forget. Checkout is unchanged, so it works on every Shopify plan.
