With food, grooming and memberships set up, the till is where it all comes together. This step covers selling, offers, stock between stores and online orders.

## At the till

1. Open **Sell › POS** and pick the customer (members and rescue groups get their prices automatically).
2. Scan bags and cans. For a case, change the line unit to **Case (24 cans)**.
3. For a groom, start from the appointment's **Checkout** so services and groomer are filled in ([step 4](https://docs.smartposhub.com/business-types/pet-store/step-4-grooming-services-and-appointments/)).
4. Take payment; reward points are earned and can be redeemed.

## Two stores

Move food between stores with **Stock Transfers** ([Stock transfers](https://docs.smartposhub.com/inventory/stock-transfers/)). Each store has its own groomers' calendar; the **Services** overview shows today's appointments and staff load per location.

## Online store and Shopper app

> **How to turn it on**
> 1. **Plan:** Website & online store and Shopper app & Scan & Go must be in your plan.
> 2. **Switch:** Settings › Business Settings › Modules, then Update Settings.
> 3. **Permission:** Website permissions and Manage the Shopper app & Scan & Go in User Management › Roles.
> - **Mobile app:** Customers use SmartPOS Shopper from Google Play.

1. Set up **Website › Store info**, **Payments** and **Shipping** (local delivery areas, pickup).
2. Make sure foods have photos and **Show on website** on; the Pet food specifications show on the product page.
3. Switch on the Shopper app in **Online & apps › Shopper app & Scan & Go**, choose a design (**Market** or **Classic** suit pet stores) and print the store QR poster.
4. Members can reorder food, book grooming and see their receipts in the app.
5. Process orders in **Website › Orders**.

**Tip:** 
Food is a repeat purchase. A customer who orders the same 24 lb bag every month is a perfect Shopper app member: they see their price, reorder in two taps and pick up.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can I sell grooming and food on one receipt?

Yes. At Checkout from the appointment the POS opens with the grooming services; add the food and treats and take one payment.

### How do I run a treat of the month offer?

Add a discount in Sell › Discounts for the treats category or brand, with start and end dates. Choose POS only, website only, or both.

### A customer's usual food is out in this store. What can I do?

Check the other store's stock and create a stock transfer, or order it with a purchase order. The SmartPOS Business app shows stock by store.

### Can customers order food for pickup?

Yes, in your online store or the SmartPOS Shopper app. Orders arrive in Website › Orders.

### Can a rescue group get its price automatically?

Yes. Link the rescue's customer record to a customer group with the Rescue pricing price group.
