Payment solutions for plant nurseries

How these solutions fit plant nurseries

See what each option adds to the way your business takes and tracks payments.

Square for Retail

For plant nurseries: Connect hardware, plants and garden supplies to a retail catalog, stock tracking and customer purchase history. Square pitches its retail POS as a way to "sell more and stay stocked with a POS designed for retail." Real-time stock, barcode checkout and vendor purchase orders cover the day-to-day of most plant nurseries. Roots Payments, an independent Square Reseller, sets it up and supports it for plant nurseries.
  • Recommend the Square plan and device mix for your store size and number of locations

Square Inventory

For plant nurseries: Track hardware, plants and garden supplies with item-level stock records and replenishment workflows. Square says its retail inventory tools let you "spend less time tracking stock and more time selling." Plant Nurseries lose margin to miscounts, dead stock and late reorders, and Square's inventory tools target exactly that. We set up the catalog, vendors and reorder rules so counts are right from day one.
  • Structure items, variants and units of measure so counts match how you buy and sell
  • Load vendors, costs and reorder points from your existing spreadsheets
  • Print and apply barcode labels for untagged stock
