Yes. Hobby and game shops, boutiques, gift shops, pet stores, vape and smoke shops, sporting goods and other specialty retailers are a strong fit for Stackably. Here is what is included, with no monthly software fee.

Products and checkout

  • Sizes, colours and other variants, each with its own price, SKU, image and stock count; personalization with text and file upload; gift wrap and gift receipts; bundles for gift sets and multi-packs.

  • Barcode scanning at checkout with a handheld or countertop scanner, and Add by UPC to create products from a barcode with details and images filled in.

  • Quantity-break pricing, tag pricing for VIP or wholesale customers, compare-at prices, coupon codes and register discounts.

  • Card, cash, ACH, gift card and split payments, compliant dual pricing, refunds, invoices and QR Pay.

  • A Contains Alcohol flag and age-sensitive handling for shops that need it.

Moving an existing catalog

  • Our team imports your product list for you as part of setup, including sizes and colours with their SKUs and stock counts, add-on modifiers and opening stock. A boutique with hundreds of SKUs, or a shop coming from another point-of-sale system, does not re-enter its products by hand. Send an export from your previous system or a spreadsheet to your agent or support. A self-serve CSV import for simple products is also available in Shop+.

Inventory

  • Stock per variant, receiving with cost layers, stocktakes, waste, lots and expiry, FIFO/LIFO/average costing, demand forecast with reorder suggestions, barcode and QR label templates, CSV import and export, and vendors as contacts.

Online and growth

  • An online store from the same catalog and stock, with product reviews, custom pages, branded checkout and SEO fields.

  • Online orders with in-store pickup, and local delivery through Uber Direct's driver network with a flat per-delivery fee paid by the customer and no commission. See in-store pickup and local delivery for retail orders.

  • Wholesale applications and wholesale pricing by customer tag.

  • Points & Rewards loyalty with referrals, and the Marketing Stack for email, text, SmartLists and automation.

  • Memberships and subscriptions (clubs, classes, monthly boxes) with digital contracts, and a calendar for classes and events.

Staff, reporting and locations

  • Employee PIN logins with roles, admin codes on voids and per-terminal permissions.

  • Daily POS reports, Product Mix, Discounts, inventory valuation, Finance overview and free QuickBooks sync.

  • Multi-location and franchise management.

  • Hardware: P3 MIX, T3 with CPad Pay, D3 Pro and P3H, cash drawers, scanners, receipt printers and a label printer from October 22, 2026. 24/7 phone support.
