How to integrate multiple Shopify POS.
If your physical and digital stores are on the same Shopify URL - Good news! our Rise Gift Card & Loyaly program is already integrated with your Shopify POS. Any changes and transactions with the cards will automatically change in your dashboard and reflect when customers use them on your online store. To learn more about how Rise integrates with your POS please check out this gift card integration article and this loyalty integration article.
If your physical and digital stores aren't on the same Shopify account - Rise offers a unique multi-channel solution that will enable Gift Cards to work across platforms and brands. A Gift Card that is bought in your online store will work on any of your Shopify POS and vice versa. In order to facilitate this solution, you will need to either create your physical gift cards via our system, or give us a CSV file of the gift card codes and balances already created. Please contact us through the chat box or mail to Rise Support to enable this service.
How to integrate with different types of POS:
You can integrate your POS and your online store by manually changing the Gift Card balance from your Rise dashboard. In order to facilitate this, we would need to first migrate all of your old cards into our system. After the migration, whenever a customer comes in your physical location with a gift card generated by a 3rd party POS, go into your Rise dashboard==> Store Credit==> Select the Gift Card==> Change Balance- look for the code and manually modify it according to its use.
