Quick Update: Custom Roles Now Work with Booostr POS

Introduction

A quick update that makes managing your volunteer team a little easier: custom roles with Store Manager access can now log in to the Booostr Point of Sale app.

If someone has a custom role that includes Store Manager Access, they can now use that role to log in to the Booostr Point of Sale app on their own device. The update works with both the Apple and Android POS apps, and there was nothing for your team to install or configure. The change was automatically delivered through Booostr’s secure login system.

A Better Setup for Busy Fundraisers

This is especially helpful when several volunteers are helping with sales at the same event. Instead of having one person responsible for the POS device or asking volunteers to share a login, team members can use their own Apple or Android devices while working within the permissions you’ve already assigned to them.

That gives your organization more flexibility at fundraisers, concession stands, merchandise tables and other events where more than one person may need to take payments. Your team can spread out the work and keep things moving, without turning POS management into another project for your volunteers.

Better Order and Activity Tracking

There’s another useful benefit: better tracking at both the order and access level. When team members have their own authorized access, your organization has a clearer picture of how POS is being used and who is handling orders.

That added visibility can be valuable as your organization grows or more volunteers become involved. You get a little more structure around your sales activity without making the day-to-day experience more complicated for the people running your events.

Your Phone or Tablet Becomes Your POS

Booostr Point of Sale lets Apple and Android devices accept in-person payments, so your organization doesn’t need to invest in a collection of expensive dedicated POS terminals just to sell at events. Volunteers can use supported devices as part of your sales setup, giving you the flexibility to have multiple people helping customers at the same time.

And because Point of Sale works directly with Booostr Store Manager, your sales information stays connected. POS data syncs to and from Store Manager, while also connecting with Booostr Contact Manager and Financial Manager. Your sales, customer and financial information can stay together instead of being scattered across different systems.

No Extra Cost. No Extra Setup.

There’s nothing new to purchase for this update, either. Booostr Store Manager and the Point of Sale app have no monthly or annual software cost, and this new functionality was delivered automatically through Booostr’s secure login system.

If your custom roles already include Store Manager Access, the new POS capability is ready to use. No new setup or configuration is required.

Built for Real Volunteer Teams

We think this is exactly the kind of improvement that makes Booostr more useful for the people actually running fundraisers. You might have several volunteers, multiple devices and a line of supporters waiting to make a purchase. Giving your team the ability to work from their own devices helps you handle those busy moments while keeping everything connected behind the scenes.

And that’s really the goal with Booostr: give small nonprofits better tools while keeping the work manageable for the volunteers who make everything happen.
