Shopify POS card reader Australia
Shopify connects with retail hardware that helps you build your business, both in person and online.
If you're using Shopify POS, start by choosing the hardware you need to accept payments using cash, cards, or both. Then add the retail package to your Shopify plan when you're ready to use specialized retail hardware like barcode scanners, receipt printers, and cash registers.
Choose your Shopify POS hardware
Depending on your business, the kind of retail hardware you'll need might be a bit different:
| If you run... | Then you might need... |
|---|---|
| A pop-up shop | iPad + card reader |
| A store | iPad + card reader + receipt printer |
| Multiple stores or a warehouse | iPad + card reader + receipt printer + barcode scanner + cash drawer |
You can choose a variety of components for your Shopify POS system, depending on:
- whether you take cash, cards, or both
Where to buy hardware
If you're in Canada, the continental United states, or the United Kingdom, then you can buy hardware from the Shopify Hardware Store:
Note
We do not sell our Complete Kit outside of the continental United States and Canada.
Model number quick reference
To make sure that the hardware you buy is supported by Shopify, you must verify the model numbers on items you buy (unless you're buying from the Shopify Hardware Store in Canada, the continental United States, or the United Kingdom). Model numbers must match those shown in the following table.
Get help with hardware components
In the following table, components shown in brackets are supported only if you've upgraded to the retail package. We're unlikely to be able to help if you have problems using non-supported components.
Re-using your own equipment
You might be able to re-use these components if you already own them:
- cash drawer (if you're using Shopify POS with retail package)
- barcode label printer (if you're using Shopify POS with retail package)
- iPad stand.
