my typo was so bad I had to re-write.
we already saved 700+ human *days* worth of time with v11 across Shopify POS checkouts. 700...days.
we're on our way to making Shopify POS the fastest in-person checkout machine in the world. good work team. we're just getting started.
Design at Shopify is having a moment. A big moment!
Incredible talent, and even stronger output.
So we gave it a home: https://t.co/qkXmfsLHzM
Come explore
POS v11.0 is about what merchants actually care about:
→ The cart stays in view while staff work
→ Edit multiple items without repeating steps
→ Find or add customers instantly
→ Checkout with fewer taps
This is where @Shopify POS is headed. Not just faster checkout, but designed for how retail actually works.
We just shipped v10 of @Shopify POS. Major redesign. Faster. Smarter. And built for selling in person, your way.
Here are the headlines:
- Branded POS screens
- New home screen layout & navigation
- Redesigned cart
- Smarter, faster search
Fewer taps. Cleaner workflows. More control.
If you’re not already selling in person, there’s never been a better time to start.
For merchants selling in-store or on the go, we're adding some of your most requested features to @Shopify POS.
Customer segments now include distance-based filters so you can drive customers to local stores and events.
Customer metafields are now on Shopify POS so you can capture and leverage customer data at retail. Save details like shoe size and let staff know when to offer a birthday discount. Metafields sync instantly across POS and online sales channels, giving you more insight into a customer’s preferences.
Offline payments are easy. Now, if you lose your internet connection, you can still accept payments with a Shopify card reader. No more lost sales.
Unverified returns are now possible, so when a customer doesn’t have a receipt or order number, you can refund to a gift card. This will be especially convenient for holiday gift returns.
The barrier to entry for selling in person has never been lower. You don’t need a physical store or POS hardware to get started in retail. You can accept payments with just a smartphone with Tap to Pay on iPhone and Android.

@round Fewer buttons, fewer manufacturing complexities, cheaper production costs, more profit. Enshitification of an entire industry, even at the expense of safety.
@laurenloprete My POV has been fairly fluid on this over the years. Currently, my thoughts are that code is the source of truth and trying to maintain truth in a design tool is a lackluster time investment for designers. Maintenance cost is just too high when one can open the app and see it.
