POS is currently in beta. Some rental methods have limited functionality.
Supercycle’s Shopify POS integration lets store staff create and manage rentals at the point of sale. You can apply calendar rentals, subscription rentals, add items to existing memberships, and process resales directly from POS.

​
Activate Supercycle in Shopify POS

1

Open POS apps settings

In Shopify admin, go to Sales channels > POS > Settings > POS apps.
2

Add the Supercycle tile

Select Supercycle, then click Add on the Smart Grid tile.

​
Supported rental methods

​
Calendar rentals

Create fixed-duration rentals with specific start and end dates. What you can do:
  • Select rental duration (e.g., 1 day, 1 week, 1 month)
  • Choose a start date for the rental
  • Apply to multiple items at once

​
Subscription rentals

Start ongoing subscription rentals with minimum commitment terms. What you can do:
  • Select minimum term (e.g., 1 month, 3 months, 6 months)
  • Choose a start date for the subscription
  • Apply to multiple items at once

​
Membership rentals

Add items to a customer’s existing membership. What you can do:
  • Add items to an existing membership
Limitations:
  • You cannot create a new membership from POS
  • Customer must already have an active membership

​
Resale

Sell individual serialized items to customers. What you can do:
  • Sell specific serialized items (used, refurbished, or unused inventory)
  • Process purchases of items at configured resale prices
Limitations:
  • Limited configuration options available in POS

​
Verify a customer’s ID on POS

If ID verification is enabled and a customer needs to verify their identity, staff can start the verification flow directly from POS without leaving the order. The Verify ID action appears on the order details and post-purchase screens when a verification is required. Tapping it opens a screen with a QR code and a shareable verification link, so the customer can complete verification on their own phone.
1

Open the Verify ID action

From the order details or post-purchase screen, tap Verify ID. POS checks the customer’s verification status automatically.
2

Share the QR code or link

Ask the customer to scan the QR code with their phone, or copy the verification link from the Verification link field and send it to them.
3

Wait for completion

The screen polls for status every few seconds and updates automatically once the customer finishes verification on their device. If the customer is already verified, POS shows that no verification is required.
The QR code and link both open the same secure verification page, powered by the same provider you’ve configured in Settings > Risk. Customers don’t need to log in to your store to complete verification.

​
Apply a rental method on POS

1

Wait for the rentals tile

On the Shopify POS app, a Rentals tile appears after setup.
It may take a few minutes. It will be grayed out until you add eligible products to the cart.
2

Add products to the cart

Add the product(s) you want to apply a rental method to the order.
3

Open the rentals tile

Go back to the tiles section and tap Rentals.
4

Select items and choose method

Select the product(s) from the list, choose your rental method (Calendar, Subscription, Membership, or Resale), configure the options (duration, start date, minimum term, etc.), and apply it to the cart.
The original products in the cart are replaced by the rental items.
