What Shopbox sets out to do

Help retailers sell anywhere at a moment’s notice.

Shopbox believes every retailer should be able to sell anywhere and every customer should be able to buy anywhere. Technology should make a sale easy wherever it happens, in a field, in a stadium or in a mall, and a powerful retail setup should be within reach of any customer-focused retailer, whatever the technical skill of its frontline staff.

What Shopbox does

Shopbox takes the IT infrastructure of a retail store, shrinks it, makes it rugged and portable, and integrates all the parts so they work reliably and securely.

In 2010, Shopbox started out serving tent stores and small pop-up shops. It has since grown into fully integrated, portable registers and handhelds used at stadium events, marathons, festivals and seasonal events hosting as many as 100,000 guests. The cases run on battery power when there is nothing to plug into.

Driven by 4 Core Values

  1. Eliminate every IT barrier getting in the way of our clients’ sales success
  2. Simpler is better. Less is more
  3. Create tools to make our clients’ work easier, faster, better.
  4. It’s not work if you love doing it

Shopbox exists so that nobody has to bring an IT crew to a pop-up shop.

Typical enterprise POS systems are too bloated and cumbersome for mobility, quick setup and seamless transactions, and they leave frontline staff anxious and managers with headaches. Shopbox integrates with the client’s existing POS and strips out that pain: everything arrives pre-assembled and preconfigured, so all a store needs is a power source and a Shopbox.
