## Description

**Akantio POS turns your WooCommerce catalog into a full point-of-sale register**—
for shops, pop-ups, markets, and counter sales, right alongside the online store
you already run.

Ring up sales on a fast, touch-friendly checkout screen and take payment however
the customer pays — cash, or card in person via built-in Stripe and Revolut terminal
integration, with more payment providers on the way — then hand over a receipt without
ever leaving the register. This plugin is the bridge that keeps your WooCommerce
store and your POS register looking at the same truth: the same products, the same
stock, and — if you choose — the same orders.

#### Why run WooCommerce as your POS

 * **One product catalog.** Whatever you sell online is exactly what you sell in
   person — no duplicate product lists to maintain.
 * **Stock that’s always right.** A sale at the register is a sale in WooCommerce.
   No overselling online because the shelf emptied out.
 * **Real orders, if you want them.** Turn on Order Sync and every POS sale becomes
   a proper WooCommerce order — same reporting, same order history, same customer
   records.
 * **Built for the counter.** Akantio POS itself is a fast, offline-capable register
   app, not a repurposed admin screen — designed for the person ringing up the next
   customer, not the store owner in the back office.

Two independent sync modes (choose one from Akantio POS itself):

 * **Order Sync** — every completed POS sale is created here as a real
    WooCommerce
   order, exactly as rung up, with stock reduced automatically.
 * **Stock-only Sync** — POS sales adjust product stock levels directly,
    without
   creating an order in WooCommerce.

Compatible with both High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS) and legacy
 post-based
order storage.

#### Get started

 1. Install this plugin on your WooCommerce store.
 2. Download and open [Akantio POS](https://akantio.com/) and follow its “Connect to
    WooCommerce” flow.
 3. Pick Order Sync or Stock-only Sync, and start ringing up sales.

#### How the connection works

Connecting is driven entirely from Akantio POS, not from this site — open
 Akantio
POS and follow its “Connect to WooCommerce” flow, which authenticates using WooCommerce’s
own native REST API consumer key/secret system (the same mechanism any other WooCommerce
REST API client uses). This plugin does not store, generate, or manage that credential
itself.

#### Third-party service disclosure

This plugin does not make any outbound network requests to Akantio or any
 other
third party. All communication is inbound: your Akantio POS instance calls this 
site’s REST API (authenticated via WooCommerce’s native REST auth) to push orders
or stock updates. The only exception is the “Open POS” link in this plugin’s admin
page, which — only when you click it — opens Akantio POS in your browser, the same
as clicking any bookmark.

## Installation

 1. Install and activate WooCommerce if you haven’t already.
 2. Upload and activate this plugin (Plugins  Add New, or upload the zip).
 3. Open Akantio POS and use its “Connect to WooCommerce” flow to link this store —
    no configuration is needed on the WordPress side.
 4. In Akantio POS, choose Order Sync or Stock-only Sync and confirm the connection
    succeeded from WooCommerce  Akantio POS in wp-admin, which shows a log of recent
    sync activity.

## FAQ

### Does this plugin work without Akantio POS?

No. This plugin only exposes the REST endpoints Akantio POS calls; it has
 no functionality
on its own without a connected POS instance.

### Does this recalculate my order totals or taxes?

No. Orders and stock changes are applied exactly as Akantio POS computed
 them at
the register — this plugin deliberately never calls WooCommerce’s own recalculation
methods.

### Is High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS) supported?

Yes, as well as legacy post-based order storage.

### What’s the difference between the Free and Pro plan?

**Free** — 1 device, 1 user, up to 100 products, up to 50 orders/month.
 In-person
payments by cash or ad-hoc card (no terminal integration).

**Pro** — 1 device, 1 user (multi-user management in development),
 unlimited products,
unlimited orders/month. Adds card payment integration with Stripe Terminal and Revolut
Terminal, plus accounting sync with Moneybird.

More integrations are on the way. See akantio.com for current pricing.

### Does Akantio POS run on my WordPress server?

No. This plugin runs on your WordPress site as usual, but Akantio POS
 itself — 
the register app, your account, and your license — runs on Akantio’s own external
servers, not on your WordPress hosting. This plugin is only the bridge between the
two.

### Where do I manage the connection or see sync activity?

WooCommerce  Akantio POS in wp-admin shows recent order and stock sync
 activity,
with links to the affected orders/products, and a link to open Akantio POS.
