The Problem

Shoppers arrive but order isn't ready

Without real-time coordination across Square POS, Clover, Lightspeed, Shopify POS, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, and Magento, BOPIS orders often aren't pulled by the time the shopper arrives — and they wait at the counter, frustrated.

Lower CSAT, lost repeat BOPIS

Curbside arrival notifications are clunky

Shoppers text "I'm here" to a generic number — and nobody sees it for 10 minutes. Floor staff at Square POS, Clover, and Lightspeed stores get pulled off the floor to check the parking lot.

Frustrated shoppers, lower CSAT

Locker and ship-to-store handoff is opaque

Shoppers don't know which locker their order is in, what the code is, or when it expires. Without conversational AI, every question becomes a CS ticket.

Higher CS cost, lower repeat

Pickup window scheduling is rigid

Shoppers want to pick up on their schedule — but POS booking widgets force them into rigid windows. Square POS, Clover, Lightspeed, and Shopify POS don't allow live conversation to adjust.

Missed pickup windows, abandoned BOPIS orders

How Frontdesk Works
