frequently asked questions

designed for galleries

can I override prices at checkout?

Yes, you can amend prices at checkout as required. Also, you can have discounts e.g. for friends and family or for staff.

can I have offers?

Yes, you can have simple or complex offers. You can also have supplier offers separate to store offers which will be reflected in the calculation of commissions.

what if an artist provides regular retail items, e.g., cards, as well as sale-or-return items, e.g., paintings?

No problem, Gallery POS handles that with ease.

do I need a barcode scanner?

If you want. You don't have to stick a barcode to every item in the store for the system to work!

can I integrate Gallery POS with my website?

Most likely. We have worked with most of the well-known platforms and haven't yet found one that we can't link to.

does Gallery POS run on Mac or Android?

No, Gallery POS is designed for Windows.

can I print my own barcodes?

Absolutely. Any size, any format. Just depends on what printer you have. You can print onto sheets of standard Avery labels using a regular printer, or you can print to specialist label printers.

we have artists who have many designs of cards, do we have to set up each design as a product?

You don't have to if it doesn't make sense to. It may work best to have one 'generic' product for the card for the artist and then just have multiple barcodes for each design. We would discuss this with you as part of set up.

not all our items are held in stock, we also have services and charges etc. Can that work?

Yes, you can have any mixture of inventory and 'non-inventory' items such as a picture framing service, or postage.

does Gallery POS support gift cards?

Yes, it has gift cards built-in, but if you have an existing provider we can most likely integrate with them (assuming they support real-time integrations).

how do I get started?

Just contact us and we'll be delighted to have an initial chat about your requirements.
