TheShops : soldes & boutiques

TheShops puts local businesses at your fingertips.

Talk to them directly, order within the conversation, book a time slot—and pay without leaving the app. No anonymous catalogs here: real businesses, run by real people, whom you can message.

SELLING
Opening your shop takes just a few screens, right from your phone.

• Your products, opening hours, and delivery options
• Stock levels, product categories, and featured items can be adjusted from the product page
• Your orders and reservations, with their status and payment details at a glance
• Your finances: what's coming in, what's going out, what's left—each currency tracked separately
• Your invoices and credit notes, accessible within the app
• Respond to your customers in the same feed as your sales

REFERRING
Invite your friends and family: your link already contains your code, so they don't need to enter anything. Then, find your invitees in a list where they can take action—add them to your customers, a sales group, or your shop's channel. Where the referral program is open, a welcome credit awaits you both.

TheShops is free for shoppers. On the merchant side, a commission applies to sales collected online: it is known in advance and detailed in the Finances section.
