GoDaddy POS
GoDaddy POS combines Smart Terminal hardware with software for in-person selling and business management. Checkout includes product search, favorites, preset taxes and discounts, tips, refunds, split payments, pre-authorizations, and printed, text, or email receipts. Product catalogs can contain images, variants, modifiers, and barcodes, with bulk uploads and edits and AI-assisted descriptions. Point of Sale Plus adds terminal stock counts and low- or out-of-stock alerts; inventory details sync across mobile, online, and terminal channels. The service can sync with GoDaddy’s Online Store and support sales through Amazon, Etsy, eBay, social channels, and online ordering for in-store pickup. It accepts major credit and debit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, HSA, and FSA. GoDaddy lists in-person processing at 2.3% + 0¢ with Point of Sale Plus. The free plan allows up to 10 products; Point of Sale Plus is $28.99 a month billed with an annual plan. Hardware options include handheld, countertop, and larger-catalog terminals. The Smart Terminal Pro needs a separate printer for printed receipts; email and text are alternatives. GoDaddy lists Android, iOS, and web support.
