HotWax Commerce’s Shopify BOPIS App can be installed on Shopify to display inventory availability in stores on every product detail page. This app relies on the Inventory Availability APIs that provide inventory availability in-store by zip code, area, or city.
CAPTURE BOPIS ORDER
Once the BOPIS orders are placed in Shopify they are automatically pulled into the HotWax Order Management.
NOTIFICATION AT THE STORE
Store personnel get notifications for BOPIS orders. Multiple forms of notifications can be configured like email, text message, and mobile app notifications so that associates can process BOPIS orders immediately.
PICK & PACK AND DELIVER BOPIS ORDERS
Store associates have a Mobile Application for processing BOPIS orders. They can see all the orders assigned to the stores. Once they pick the orders and mark them as packed in the app, customers get notifications that their orders are ready to pick up. Once the customer walks into the store, the associate can hand over the order and mark the order complete in the app.
