How to send messages to your tills with POSable notifications

Push Notifications in the POSable dashboard let you send a message straight to the POSable app on your tills, without being in the shop. Staff see it on their device until they dismiss it. Use it to tell staff about new products, seasonal ranges, price changes or new loyalty offers, or to ask them to sync the till. This guide is for owners and managers. You need Manager or Administrator access to send notifications.

Why it matters

What to use notifications for

SituationExample message
New products“New cakes added under Bakery. Please sync your till.”
Seasonal ranges“Christmas range is now live.”
Price changes“Coffee prices go up from today.”
Loyalty offers“New offer: buy 5 coffees, get 1 free.”
Ask for a sync“Please tap Sync Data to get today’s changes.”

Step-by-step: send a notification

  1. Log in to the dashboard (https://dashboard.posable.co.uk[1], or Login on posable.co.uk).
  2. Open Push Notifications from the menu.
  3. Fill in the form with your message.
  4. Click Send Notification. It’s sent to the devices straight away.

Tip: After changing products, prices or settings in the dashboard, send a notification asking staff to tap Sync Data, so every till picks up the change straight away.

What staff see

The message appears in the POSable app on the till and stays there until the staff member dismisses it.

Reviewing past notifications

The Push Notifications page keeps a record of the notifications you’ve sent. Check it before sending, so you don’t send the same message twice.

Note: These are messages to your staff’s tills. Offers sent to customers go through the loyalty system’s own notifications. See How to set up loyalty.

Troubleshooting
