While businesses don't need a website to use GoDaddy's POS, with
consumers spending $791.70 billion
online in the U.S. in 2020, adding an online store is vital to
their long-term success. This is also where GoDaddy's POS stands
apart from others on the market—the secret sauce is revealed in the
seamless experience felt by businesses that sell both online and
offline; like a brick and mortar that offers online orders with
in-store pickup. GoDaddy's POS seamlessly integrates with GoDaddy's
Online Store to unify in-person and online sales in one organized
place—the new Commerce Hub.
Commerce Hub is designed to help GoDaddy customers easily manage
and track every sale they make, whether that takes place online,
offline, or more commonly in today's landscape, a hybrid of the
two. The dashboard provides bird's-eye view metrics on how a
business is performing, including visual graphs mapping sales and
orders, and the ability to compare the performance of sales across
all the marketplaces that business sells. From this single sign on,
owners can view inventory, access in-person sales, and online
orders from Amazon to Google Shopping, Instagram, Facebook and
more, serving as the ultimate time and sanity saver.
GoDaddy is releasing the full GoDaddy Payments solution with
industry-low pricing, putting more money back in small business
owners' pockets. For GoDaddy's POS, customers are charged a
transaction fee of 2.3% + 0 cents,
and online transactions are 2.3% + 30
cents, making GoDaddy Payments transparent, simple and the
lowest in the industry, by far. GoDaddy Payments accepts all major
forms of payment including Visa, Mastercard, American Express,
Discover, and contactless Apple Pay and Google Pay, with no
long-term contracts or monthly minimums. Designed to make
transactions quick and simple, most GoDaddy customers get
GoDaddy Payments set up in minutes and get paid as early as the
next business day.
"GoDaddy's new point of sale offerings supercharge our
customers' ability to sell anywhere and grow," said GoDaddy
President of Commerce, Osama Bedier. "We're on a mission to
enable small businesses with the most powerful yet easy-to-use
commerce solutions at an unbeatable value. And we're just getting
started."
As part of the POS launch, GoDaddy's new offerings include:
- GoDaddy Smart Terminal ($249) is a modern, sleek
terminal for brick-and-mortar businesses. Versatile and low
profile, the Smart Terminal is dual-screened and doesn't require
swiveling screens or additional hardware to make transactions—it
even includes a hidden built-in printer for receipts. Businesses
can customize it with their logo so transactions become a seamless
extension of their brand.
- GoDaddy Card Reader with Docking Station ($49) is
ideal for payments on-the-go at farmer's markets and the like. The
small hardware packs a punch, with a full 3-in-1 swipe, chip and
tap function, and works with the GoDaddy Mobile App for a quick and
intuitive experience. With a docking station for added flexibility
and a battery life that lasts the whole day, businesses never have
to worry about missing a sale.
The POS hardware is the result of technology acquired
from Poynt in December 2020
merged with GoDaddy's online selling software, designed
specifically to simplify the selling process for small
businesses—within the new Commerce Hub, business owners are also
guided with tips to expand into new marketplaces, fulfill orders,
manage inventory and more. The POS addition rounds out GoDaddy
Payments all-encompassing commerce package, comprised of eCommerce,
Virtual Terminal and Online Pay Links.
To further streamline GoDaddy's POS, entrepreneurs can configure
their devices online before it arrives in the mail—from adding
product listings to logos and custom receipts—so the device is
ready for transactions as soon as it is connected to Wi-Fi. The
Smart Terminal and Card Reader are now available for purchase
across the U.S. at GoDaddy.com with free two-day shipping, include
a one-year warranty and are backed by GoDaddy's award-winning 24/7
customer support.
