While ShopKeep’s POS is only available on the iPad, Vend works on any device with a web browser, so you can ring up sales on your Mac, PC, or iPad. Additionally, Vend is compatible with a wider range of industry standard point of sale hardware, including receipt printers, barcode scanners, and cash drawers you may already own.

Multi-store merchants agree that Vend gives retailers powerful tools for staying on top of multiple locations and channels. Vend lets you manage your all your inventory and customer data from one account, syncing products across all your sales channels and transferring easily between stores. This gives you better control over your stores so you can keep them stocked with the right products at the right time.

Vend Reporting is customizable and flexible. Build your own reports using a wide range of variables, and use filters to get exactly the information you need to see how your physical and online stores are performing. For instance, if you’d like to view sales per by brand, customer, category, tag, or any other keyword, you can do so with just a few clicks.

Vend also supports supports certain tax requirements, like cash rounding for countries that implement rounding rules, and provides global payment support.

Compare Vend with:
“Vend has the ability to manage multiple inventory locations and this is huge for those who have several stores.
We have 9 inventory locations, and managing these through ShopKeep would have been impossible. Vend's customer support team is also very responsive and will call back or respond to emails within a short period of time. We didn’t receive that level of service with ShopKeep.”
20,000+ stores use Vend to run the world’s best retail.
