Comparison - updated October 2026

Flawless POS vs Shopify POS

Shopify POS is the in-store side of a Shopify online store. For repairs, appraisals, memo, RFID and phones, Shopify's website points to third-party apps. Flawless POS builds all of it in, and it works with Shopify, so you can keep your Shopify store.

Short answer: Flawless POS does more. It includes all 30 features we compare; Shopify's website lists 14 (and 15 more in part). Flawless adds memo out to customers. It also builds in repair and custom job tracking, appraisals signed by phone and memo and consignment, which Shopify's website lists only in part. It runs single stores, established jewelers and multi-location groups on one live system.

You do not have to give up Shopify to switch: Flawless works with Shopify and other big e-commerce platforms.

What Flawless adds

None of these appear on Shopify's website as of October 25, 2026.

Memo out to customers

A customer takes a piece home on approval: it is reserved, has a return date, and no payment is taken.

Built in, not bolted on

Shopify's website lists these only in part. With Flawless they are part of the same system, from the same company.

Repairs and custom jobs

Photos at intake, deposits and status from intake to pickup, on the customer's record next to their purchases. Shopify POS: Only through third-party apps.

Appraisals

Create appraisals with photos, and the appraiser signs on their phone from a private link. Shopify POS: Only through third-party apps.

Memo and consignment

Receive vendor pieces on memo, take customer consignments, and pay consignors a share of the price or the profit. Shopify POS: Consignment only through third-party apps.

RFID counts

Count the store with a handheld reader instead of by hand. The readers are Android-enabled and sync with Flawless. Shopify POS: Only through third-party apps.

RFID checkout and tags

Ring up tagged pieces and print RFID or standard tags. Our 2 x 4 RFID jewelry tags come in four colors. Shopify POS: Only through third-party apps.

Store phones

Staff call from your business number on a computer or phone. Transcripts and summaries go on the customer's record. Shopify POS: Only through third-party apps.

An AI receptionist

Answers calls, gives repair and order status, and handles holiday hours, extensions and voicemail. Shopify POS: Only through third-party apps.

GIA reports on the item

Shape, clarity, carat and certification on every piece, with GIA reports synced to the item. Shopify POS: Only through third-party apps.

Trade-ins and buybacks

Take a piece in trade toward a new one, or buy it from the customer at the counter. Shopify POS: Only through third-party apps.

Built for jewelry businesses of every size

Independent stores

Everything a store needs from the first day: the counter, the bench, the website and the phones. We set it up, bring your data over and train your team.

Established jewelers

Years of customers, repairs and inventory come with you. We run test migrations before the switch, bring over your sales history and train everyone on the floor and at the bench.

Multi-location groups and chains

Every location on one live system in the cloud: inventory and transfers between stores, multi-store reporting and accounting, and one company for software, hardware and processing. Breckenridge Jewelers runs five locations on Flawless.

Wholesalers

Proposals, sales orders, memos, invoices and statements, with a client portal for your accounts, in the same system as your retail store if you run both.

We needed a POS that could keep up across three locations, and Flawless has been exactly that partner.

Mark Pasdon, GRWN Diamonds

Moving your store to Flawless POS

We have moved stores from Shopify, and we can leave your Shopify web store in place. You can also talk to jewelers who switched to Flawless from Jewel360, The Edge and Crystal.

  1. A 30-minute demoWe look at how your store runs today: repairs, memo, inventory counts, how you text customers and what you pay for processing.
  2. A test migrationWe bring over your inventory, customers and sales history into a test copy first, so you can check your own records before anything changes.
  3. TrainingWe train your team on the counter, the bench workflow and the apps before you go live.
  4. Go live, with hardware and processing readyPayment terminals, receipt and tag printers, scanners and RFID tags come from us, set up for your store. Or use the iPads and computers you have.

It allows me to run all aspects of my business from anywhere in the world.
