Signup to sale · about 45 minutes

From signup to first sale in four steps

There is nothing to install and nobody to wait for. Most boutiques with around 50 styles go from signup to a first sale in about 45 minutes.

Setting up BoutiquePOS takes four steps: sign up and create your business (about 5 minutes), add your shop, registers and staff (about 10 minutes), add products by CSV import or style by style with sizes and colors (about 25 minutes for 50 styles), then go live with your online store generated and your first sale rung (about 5 minutes).

Step 1 · 5 min

Sign up

Create your account and your business: shop name, currency and how tax works where you trade.

  • No card needed for the 14-day trial
  • Choose dollars, dirhams or rupees as your business currency
  • Set tax as inclusive (UAE VAT) or added at checkout (USA, Pakistan)

Step 2 · 10 min

Add your shop

Add your location, your registers and the staff who will use them, each with their own login.

  • Name the location and set its receipt layout and language
  • Add registers for each till point
  • Give staff their own logins and roles

Step 3 · 25 min for ~50 styles

Add products

Import a CSV from your old system or a spreadsheet, or add styles one by one with their size and color lists.

  • Save size runs as reusable variation templates
  • Each size and color gets its own SKU, barcode and stock
  • Free help with the import if your file is messy

Step 4 · 5 min

Go live

Your online store is generated from the catalog. Open the register, print a few labels and ring your first sale.

  • Online store built from your products automatically
  • Open the cash register with your float
  • Scan or search, take payment, print or share the receipt

After you go live

Your first week.

Day 1

Print the rest of your tags

With the catalog in, print barcode labels for the stock on the rack so every sale is a scan, not a search.

Day 2

Count and correct stock

Walk the rack size by size and fix any opening counts. A clean count in week one keeps your reports honest all season.

Day 4

Share your store link

Put the online store link in your Instagram bio and your WhatsApp business profile, and send it to regulars.

Day 7

Close your first registers

Close the register at the end of each day and check the totals against your cash and card slips. By Friday the routine is second nature.

What do I need before I start?

A browser on a tablet, laptop or desktop, and a list of your products. A spreadsheet export from your old POS is ideal; a photo of your stock book is a start.

Hardware is optional on day one. You can ring sales by searching for products and share receipts digitally, then add a scanner and printers when you are ready.

Where does most of the setup time go?

Products. The account and shop take about 15 minutes; your catalog takes the rest. Fifty styles with sizes and colors takes around 25 minutes once your size runs are saved as templates.

If you have hundreds of styles, a CSV import is faster than typing. Send us the file and we will help with the import for free.

Can someone help me set it up?

Yes. Book a demo and we will walk through setup on your own catalog, or send your product file for a free import check.

The help center also has short guides for each step, from creating size templates to printing your first label sheet.

How long does BoutiquePOS take to set up?

About 45 minutes for a boutique with around 50 styles: 5 minutes to sign up, 10 to add your shop, about 25 to add products and 5 to go live.

Do I need to install anything?

No. BoutiquePOS runs in a browser on a tablet, laptop or desktop, and there is also a mobile app.

Can I import products from my old system?

Yes. You can import products from a CSV file, including size and color variations, and help with the import is free.

Do I need a barcode scanner on day one?

Yes. Add another location whenever you open one. Flagship covers up to three locations with stock transfers.
