Syncing Your Physical Shop’s Stock With Your Online Store
Selling in a shop and online at the same time creates a classic problem: the last item sells twice. Synchronising stock solves it.
Your options
- Manual updates: fine for small catalogues, error-prone as you grow
- CSV import/export: daily or hourly stock files from your POS
- API integration: real-time sync between POS and website
Pick a source of truth
Decide which system owns stock levels, usually the POS or ERP, and let the website follow.
Plan for edge cases
Reserved stock, returns, bundles and multiple warehouses all need rules. Settle these before development to avoid surprises.
Frequently asked questions
Can you connect my POS?
If your POS has an API or export feature, we can usually integrate it with WooCommerce or a custom store.
How often does stock update?
From real-time to scheduled intervals, depending on what the POS supports.
