Selling at Trade Shows
WareSquared's Trade Show mode streamlines in-person sales at events, markets, and trade shows.
Enabling Trade Show Mode
Trade Show mode is available in both the web app and mobile app. On the mobile app, tap the Trade Show tab in the bottom navigation.
Creating a Trade Show Sale
- Open Trade Show mode
- Scan or search for products
- Enter quantities
- Select or create a customer
- Process payment (card on file or new payment)
- Complete the sale
Card on File
At trade shows, you can capture a customer's payment method for future orders:
- During checkout, select Save card for future purchases
- The card is tokenized through your payment gateway
- For future orders, select the saved payment method
This is especially useful when customers want to place follow-up orders after the event.
Trade Show Order Tracking
All trade show orders are tagged with the Trade Show order type, making it easy to:
- Filter orders by type to see all trade show sales
- Generate trade show-specific reports
- Track revenue from individual events
Tip: Use the mobile app at trade shows for the fastest checkout experience. The camera scanner lets you quickly add products, and the streamlined interface is designed for high-volume in-person sales.
