Business types

Find the Tillr fit closest to your business.

Choose the business type that most closely matches how you sell. Each guide explains relevant workflows without forcing every operator into the same setup.

Flexible starting point

Start with familiar hardware.

Use existing iPads

Start checkout on the device many teams already know.

Scan without a separate scanner

Use the iPad camera for barcode capture at the counter.

Keep printers optional

Use digital receipts first, then add paper when it suits the workflow.

Retail shops

Catalog, checkout, inventory, customers, and reporting for stores that sell physical products.

Bookstores

Scan a saved ISBN barcode or search your book catalog. Add a customer when requested and reward eligible purchases with your configured loyalty program. Tillr does not look up or fill in book details from outside databases.

Electronics stores

Home goods stores

Record deliveries against your purchase orders and review tracked stock. If an item comes back, process an eligible return against the original sale. Low-stock views do not place orders for you.

Health & beauty retailers

Ring up beauty products and reward eligible repeat purchases. Give each shade, size, or formula a separate SKU; the option matrix does not create variants. For salon appointments, see our service-business pages.

Hobby & craft stores

Sell yarn, paint, tools, and other craft supplies. Give each color, weight, or material its own SKU. Staff choose related products; Tillr does not recommend them automatically.

Boutiques & apparel stores

Ring up the size and color your shopper chose. Set up each as a separate SKU; the option matrix does not create or group product variants. For a replacement, return the eligible item first, then make a new sale—not a combined exchange.

Gift shops

Import and review your product catalog, prepare labels, and set up promotions. Tillr provides standard receipts, no separate gifting-specific receipt option. Label printing needs a supported printer and driver; check the printed result yourself.
