Cobalt Sales now offers a seamless end-to-end integration with Shopify, enabling businesses to manage their online store with ease and efficiency. This integration is designed to streamline your online business operations by synchronising product details, pricing, sales pricing, stock levels, and orders between Cobalt RMS and Shopify.

Cobalt becomes the Source of Truth

Online retailers know that the challenge of managing an online store is no different to running a brick-and-mortar store. Dealing with product updates, inventory management, order processing, shipping, and customer service are all necessary. That’s why modern retailers need a reliable and efficient solution that pairs with existing systems to help online businesses operate smoothly and successfully.

That’s where Cobalt Sales and Shopify integration comes in. Cobalt Sales is a powerful and robust point of sale (POS) software that is part of Cobalt RMS. Shopify is a leading e-commerce platform that allows users to create and customise their own online store. By integrating Cobalt Sales with Shopify, clients enjoy the best of both worlds: a reliable POS system for offline sales and transactions, and a user-friendly online store for web customers.

Why utilise the Cobalt-Shopify integration?

The main reason is to prevent data duplication and other possible inconsistencies by ensuring that clients’ online and offline data are in sync. There are many advantages for online retailers, such as:

• Saving time, effort, and money: Save time and effort by managing online stores from Cobalt Sales. Users don’t have to switch between different platforms, enter the same data twice, or depend on third-party web service providers. The synchronization process is automated to run in the background.
• Improving accuracy and consistency: Frequent synchronisation ensures improvements in data accuracy and consistency. Users avoid errors and discrepancies that may arise from manual data entry or outdated information. Customers (i.e. your online customers) always see the correct product details, pricing, stock levels, and order status.
• Enhancing customer experience: Provide customers with a seamless and smooth online shopping experience. Show accurate pricing and stock availability, offer customers your whole range of products, fast and secure checkout, plus timely order confirmation and delivery. Online sales accrue loyalty points in Cobalt Sales. If existing customers make a new purchase online, it will automatically be applied to their account in Sales. Clients can also customise the Shopify notification emails, which are sent to their customers when they order from your store, for personalised service.
• Increasing sales and revenue: Expand your market reach and attract more customers online by leveraging the power of Shopify and its over 100 million monthly visitors. Take advantage of the various features and tools of Shopify, including but not limited to themes, apps, analytics, marketing, and support.
