Frequently asked questions about Sell-it

How much is the cost to switch to ABS POS system?

You don’t need to spend a fortune to switch your current POS system over to ABS. We have a tiered pricing model where the costs depend on how big your business is.

Plans for our POS system depend upon the type of POS you choose – Cloud POS or On-premise POS. Cloud POS starts from $59.99 per month.

To get comfortable with our POS system, you should probably start with a free account so you can give us a test drive without investing too much from the get-go.

How much time does it take to set up ABS’s POS system?

This will depend on how many products you have and how busy you are. Some merchants complete the process within a couple of hours, but if you have tons of SKUs and not a lot of free time, it could take a couple of weeks.

We do understand that time is money for entrepreneurs, so in order to make setting up as quick and painless as possible, we recommend that you prepare CSV files of the following before starting the process:

  • List of all products with prices, tax information, SKUs and barcodes
  • Your current customer database (if you have one)

For more info, you might want to check out ABS POS Buyer’s Guide where we provide more information and checklists of what you may need when choosing and setting up your POS system. If you need someone to walk you through the process, just get in touch with us and support staff can assist you.

ABS also offers professional services that include hands-free setup (where we take care of everything, including migrating products and customers) and one-to-one training. Contact us for more information.

Is ABS compatible with my existing POS hardware?
