We launched a new @Shopify app! 🎉🛍️
After talking to many retail POS merchants, one of their main problems was not being able to sell products with fractional quantities (weight, length, etc) properly
So we decided to build the app to solve this 🤝
apps.shopify.com/pos-fractio…
Now possible to bill clients / customers directly from Shopify using Melio
and ofc, lazer made it
This quoted post is unavailable.
woooooooop! good stuff all around
Shopify apps are great businesses to build because they don’t need huge teams, have a great distribution channel, and are easy to charge for
As long as u make the merchant more than they’re paying you, it’s a no brainer
3 years ago, my team at Lazer, @Ashish_Yelekar, and I began building @Shopify apps, helping out 10,000+ merchants along the way ❤️⚡️
Today, we’re thrilled to announce that our flagship Shopify app, @SuperchargedSMS, has officially been acquired! 🎉
