Selling in person with Shopify POS

If you want to sell your products in person, you can sign up for Shopify POS. This point of sale system allows you to process sales in a retail store and at mobile locations, such as fairs, pop-ups, and markets, using the Shopify POS app.

Selling with Shopify's online store

If you want to sell online, you can sign up for a Shopify online store. You will be able to set up all your products in the Shopify admin, and then have a beautiful storefront for your customers to visit.

If you want to sell on social media, you can do so on one (or more) of the available channels:
