PayPal engages ShopKeep POS for in-store payments at nearly 2,000 U.S. merchants

Last Updated: August 5, 2020By

ShopKeep POS will enable PayPal’s millions of users to pay instantly through their mobile devices at nearly 2,000 merchants in America.

Now customers can check-in with PayPal and check out at the register at nearly 2,000 merchants thanks to the innovative iPad POS solution from ShopKeep® POS, the simplest way to make smarter business decisions. With the launch of the PayPal partnership, nearly 2,000 merchants nationwide who use ShopKeep POS as their POS system can now accept PayPal cardless payments at the industry-low, flat rate of 2.7%. Merchants in New York City and Boston have already started accepting PayPal mobile payments as part of the ShopKeep POS / PayPal east coast pilot program.

“Disruptive, innovative point-of-sale providers like ShopKeep POS are helping us to work with thousands of small businesses to accept PayPal in-store,” said Hill Ferguson, Vice President of Mobile, PayPal. “ShopKeep’s cloud-based solution enables small businesses to seamlessly add PayPal as a payment option into their existing point-of-sale systems without having to upgrade their hardware. With PayPal, small businesses can get better insights into their customers, streamline purchase lines, and reach millions of shoppers that already trust the PayPal brand.”

The process is simple — PayPal customers check-in at participating merchants with their PayPal iPhone app. At checkout, the customer’s name and photo will appear on the ShopKeep POS iPad register. The cashier identifies the customer and finalizes the transaction. Once the transaction is complete, the customer is automatically checked out of the store and receives an email receipt of the transaction.

“It’s easy and fast, and at the right price,” says Jason Richelson, CEO and Founder of ShopKeep POS. “That’s what our merchants want — to move lines quickly. This partnership fits right in line with our core values of un-intimidating point-of-sale and is cost-effective at the 2.7% rate. Plus, PayPal’s massive customer base helps to drive foot traffic to our thousands of merchants.”

ShopKeep POS provides an easy-to-use, cost-effective, flexible point-of-sale solution for brick and mortar retailers. Merchants can ring up sales, manage inventory, build customer loyalty programs, and remotely access real-time sales. Its iPad register interface and friendly, knowledgeable customer care means merchants can be up and running in no time.

To achieve better sales and profits, most companies could be doing more to cultivate business from their existing customers. However, enthusiasm for customer-retaining strategies must not endanger sound customer-getting efforts. How companies balance the two is the big question. To intensify reaching old customers while still seeking new ones, for many firms, will mean changes in market analysis, planning systems, management incentives, and marketing and/or operations organization. In the rush toward growth, consumer marketers have tended to regard success as stemming from obtaining new customers while unwittingly minimizing the importance of satisfying old ones. It is time for more companies to distinguish between their getting and retaining functions, to assess the balance between them, and to remedy any deficiencies in customer retention. This process requires management to value the potential of current customers and to treat them in special ways to get them to keep coming back. Several major elements should be part of the new marketing mix for customer retention: Product extras Keeping customers frequently requires giving them more than the basic product that initially attracted them. Product extras for individual customers over time can play a sales-expansive role. Reinforcing promotions Product promotion works better when aimed at existing customers. If a marketer knows who these customers are, benefits can be obtained by giving them reinforcing communications. Sales force connections The sales force can play a decisive role in the customer-retention function. At a retail or service counter the salesperson is the focal point of the company's strategy and is the firm to the customer. Post-purchase communication A company must anticipate that some customers will encounter either minor or serious problems after purchasing. If the firm is not ready to hear and correct these difficulties, the customer may not repurchase  or may cancel the the relationship. Whether company or customer is at fault, standby post-purchase activities can be instrumental in saving these customers.
