Business value

The offline capabilities of the Store Commerce app for iOS ensure uninterrupted business operations during network or service outages. With this feature, users can seamlessly process orders and transactions. The app stays usable in locations with unreliable or no network access. Businesses can increase their customer base and broaden their mobile footprint. The app stores all transactional data locally and syncs it with the cloud when connectivity returns, so there's no data loss.

Feature details

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

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

The app supports the following features:

  • New SDK experience in Store Commerce within iOS provides in-app and database extensibility to support custom requirements.
