A boutique POS system that knows your racks
A dress in five sizes and three colors is fifteen things to count, not one. Batchly gives every size and color its own SKU and count, runs your loyalty and gift cards, and lets you decide who covers the card fee on a bigger ticket.
Apparel retail is a size-and-color business. A single style splits into a grid of sizes and colors, and the moment your counts drift you either oversell a size you do not have or leave money on the rack. Batchly is a boutique POS system built around that reality, with the same dual-pricing engine that runs the rest of the store so a good sale stays a good margin.
Every size and color, counted
In Batchly every size and color combination is its own SKU with its own stock count and its own barcode, so scanning a medium in sage brings down that exact item, not the whole style. You see which sizes are thin before a customer does, and reorders are a decision, not a surprise.
- Size and color tracked as separate SKUs, each with its own on-hand count.
- A printable barcode label per SKU for fast, correct scan checkout on a busy floor.
- Roughly 100 products can expand into several hundred SKUs once every size and color is counted, and Batchly keeps that legible.
Bigger tickets, real fee dollars
A boutique ticket is not a $5 coffee. On larger sales the fixed $0.20 fades and the fee settles near the 3.5% rate, but the dollars are bigger and worth deciding on. The fee is 3.5% + $0.20 per card sale:
| Card ticket | Fee (3.5% + $0.20) | Fee as % of ticket |
|---|---|---|
| Top $45.00 | $1.78 | 3.9% |
| Dress $68.00 | $2.58 | 3.8% |
| Outfit $120.00 | $4.40 | 3.7% |
| Coat $240.00 | $8.60 | 3.6% |
On a $120 outfit that fee is $4.40. With dual pricing you decide who covers it, per sale:
- Absorb — the shop covers the fee and keeps $115.60.
- Pass — the customer covers it. Cash price $120.00, card price $124.40.
- Split — the fee is halved, about $2.20 each.
Framed as a cash discount, the lower price is the cash price, which is the compliant model in all 50 states. Surcharging is a separate, more restricted approach. This is not legal advice; confirm your setup with your processor and counsel, and read is cash discounting legal. Want to test your own average ticket? Use the card fee calculator.
Loyalty, memberships, and gift cards
Boutiques run on repeat shoppers, so Batchly builds the tools in rather than bolting on a second app. Memberships with card-on-file and recurring billing let you run a VIP tier or styling club that charges automatically. Regulars are looked up at the register by name or phone, so their perks and points follow them. Gift cards sell and redeem straight from checkout, which is how you turn a holiday rush into new faces in the new year.
One store, in person and online
When you are ready, Batchly Online adds an e-commerce mode next to your in-store register. Online sales run absorb-only, so the web price is the price paid, while your counter keeps the full dual-pricing choice. Add Shophand, the AI staff bundle, to answer calls and texts about a hold or a size while you work the floor.

Boutique POS questions
Does Batchly track sizes and colors separately?
Yes. Every size and color combination is its own SKU with its own stock count and barcode. When you sell a medium in sage, that exact SKU comes down, so your on-hand numbers stay honest across a rack of similar looks.
Can I run loyalty or memberships in a boutique?
Yes. Batchly includes memberships with card-on-file and recurring billing, so you can run a VIP tier, a styling club, or a monthly perk that charges automatically. Regulars are recognized at the register, so a repeat shopper's perks and points balance are on screen without hunting through a separate app.
How do gift cards work?
Sell and redeem gift cards straight from the register. A gift card sale is a prepaid balance, and redemptions draw that balance down at checkout. It is a clean way to move inventory during a holiday rush and bring new shoppers through the door.
Who pays the card fee on a $120 sale?
You decide, per sale, with dual pricing. On a $120 ticket the fee is about $4.40. Absorb it and you keep $115.60; pass it and the card price is $124.40 while the cash price stays $120.00; or split it so you and the customer each cover about $2.20. Frame it as a cash discount and confirm your setup with your processor and counsel.
Can I sell online as well as in store?
Yes. Batchly Online adds an e-commerce mode alongside your in-store register. Online sales run absorb-only, so the price a shopper sees on the web is the price they pay, while your in-store counter keeps the full dual-pricing choice.
