Getting started

Getting started with Oliver POS

This is a placeholder knowledge-base article. The article scaffolding is in place — replace this body with the actual setup instructions when you're ready.

Before you start

  • A live WooCommerce store running on WordPress 6.0 or newer.
  • An admin login for that WordPress site.
  • A tablet or laptop with a modern browser to run the register on.

Install the plugin

  1. In your WordPress admin, go to Plugins → Add New and search for "Oliver POS".
  2. Click Install Now, then Activate.
  3. Follow the in-plugin prompt to create your Oliver POS account.

Run your first sale

  1. Open the register on your counter device and sign in with the PIN you just created.
  2. Add a product to the cart, tap Charge, and choose a tender.
  3. The order writes back to WooCommerce automatically — confirm it appears under WooCommerce → Orders.

That's the whole loop. Everything else in the knowledge base — payments, hardware, inventory, troubleshooting — builds on this same WooCommerce-as-source-of-truth model.
