Material Retail isn't a generic register with a retail sticker on it — it's purpose-built for how independent shops actually sell. Inventory with variants, real customer profiles, loyalty, and built-in Shopify and QuickBooks sync, all on a clean iPad app. We deploy, configure, and train it in person, with a local Tampa Bay team.
Material is built around a clean, fast iPad app your staff can learn in minutes — then it scales up with the retail hardware you actually need. We match the setup to your shop and install it for you.
Material handles the parts of running a shop that generic POS systems fumble — deep inventory, real customer relationships, and selling online without double entry. Here's where it earns its keep.
If you carry products in sizes, colors, and styles — and you care about knowing your customers — Material fits. Here's where it shines.
Plenty of POS systems can take a payment. Where most of them fall apart is the stuff that actually runs a shop: managing hundreds of variants, keeping inventory honest across the floor and the website, and knowing who your best customers are.
Material was built for exactly that. It's not a restaurant system stretched to fit a store, or a one-size-fits-all box — it's a retail-first platform with the inventory depth, customer tools, and online sync boutiques need to compete with the big chains.
That's why it's our pick for independent retail. And because we set it up and support it locally, you get the specialized software and the hands-on, in-person team behind it — priced transparently, with no contract.
From the checkout screen to receiving new stock to fulfilling online orders — here's how independent retailers run day to day on Material.
Material's pricing is refreshingly simple: a flat monthly software fee per station, with no long-term contract. Payment processing is priced separately and tailored to your business — head to our pricing page for processing rates and options.
Free or discounted equipment may be available for qualifying merchants — ask us on your demo.
The best way to know if Material is right for your shop is to see it. We'll walk you through a live demo with our POS team — over Zoom, or in person with a laptop if you'd rather — and answer every question. No pressure, no commitment.
