Revel Systems iPad POS is the first tablet platform to Offer Open-Source E-commerce Platform for Retailers
The Leader in iPad POS Has Made their E-commerce and Online Ordering Platform Available Through Open-Source
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 23, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Revel Systems, the leader in iPad Point of Sale Solutions, has made its E-commerce Platform available to all via its open-source code, making it easier than ever for businesses to offer E-commerce and web ordering. Now retailers who wish to integrate Revel's powerful E-commerce Platform can customize it to their own business needs. This furthers Revel's efforts to make its iPad POS fully customizable and give more businesses access to its powerful tools.
Some of the features in the E-commerce platform include: Shipping to customer, taxes that adjust according to destination, matrix inventory which allows users to pick up to two attributes of a product, open-ended design that optimizes product visibility, images that change when a product's color is selected, barcoding for each attribute or product, payments like paypal and soon to be Apple Pay and ability to track serial numbers in system purchases.
The open-source E-commerce Platform enables retailers to integrate Revel's state-of-the-art E-commerce system for their business. Revel makes its source code available for businesses to use and customize as they see fit. An open API - or application programming interface - enables users to make minor changes to source code in order to customize the original platform to their individual needs. Now businesses can harness Revel's code and make changes to the platform according to branding and individual business needs.
"The ability to sell products online is crucial to any retail store's bottom line," said Lisa Falzone, CEO and co-founder of Revel Systems. "However, that ability - a store's E-commerce Platform - must work seamlessly and communicate with a store's infrastructure, which includes the point of sale and inventory systems. At Revel, we've built a powerful E-commerce platform that enables retailers to broaden their reach and sell more items, all while maintaining cohesion between in-store and online. By making our platform open-source, retailers can simply take our code and build their own E-commerce system the way they want it while still benefiting from our powerful technology. We are giving enterprise-level tools to small business owners so they can compete in today's economy."
Revel Systems has offered an open API since its inception as a way to make its iPad POS system accessible and customizable to any business that wants to build an app or simply integrate in-system. The open-source E-commerce Platform furthers this initial mission while making it easy for businesses to integrate Revel's powerful E-commerce and customize it as they see fit. Furthermore, restaurants can also utilize Revel's open-source offering to integrate online ordering and tailor it to their individual business needs. Instead of charging an 8% fee per order like Square, Revel requires a $50 per month hosting fee, making it easier for businesses to budget accordingly and profit from utilizing the powerful E-commerce platform.
