You have the option to place a Point of Sales order from the back of your website. This is a much easier process for you and your customers to place an order.
The Point of Sales option allows you to quickly place an order on your site for any product without having to go through all of the galleries and artwork on your live site. This is ideal for artists at an exhibition. If a customer wants to buy a print of the original they are viewing, you can use the Point of Sale option to quickly place the order for the customer.
All "Self-Made Orders" will be subject to a low transaction fee of 1.15%, which will be applied to the final order total, according to our Terms and Conditions. This will ONLY apply to orders made using this new feature.
