Business value

The offline capabilities of the Store Commerce app for Android ensure uninterrupted business operations during network or service outages. The Store Commerce offline on Android feature allows seamless order and transaction processing, extending the app's usability to locations with unreliable or no network access. It helps businesses increase their customer base and broaden their mobile footprint. When connectivity is restored, the app stores all transactional data locally and synchronizes it with the cloud to prevent data loss.

Feature details

The Store Commerce app supports working offline on Android mobile devices. The app captures customer orders and sales transactions and stores them locally on the device. When connectivity is available, the app automatically synchronizes order and transaction data in the background.

Administrators install and configure Store Commerce with offline support for use by store managers, cashiers, and associates.

The Store Commerce offline on Android feature includes these capabilities:

  • A new SDK experience in Store Commerce within Android that provides in-app extensibility and database extensibility to support your custom requirements.
  • Support for cash and carry and customer order scenarios with pricing and discounts in offline mode.
