Frequently Asked Questions
What is a "farm POS," and why choose Locally Grown's version?
A farm POS is a point-of-sale system built for on-site ag-sales—think farm stands or farmers markets. Locally Grown turns any iPhone into a full farm POS with tap-to-pay, inventory tracking, and customer receipts, all without extra hardware or separate accounts.
Is this really the best POS system for farmers markets if I don't buy a card reader?
Yes. Our app for farmers market checkout uses Apple's Tap to Pay (powered by Stripe) so you accept contactless cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and watches right on your phone—no Square or Shopify reader required.
What fees will I pay?
Just 2.7% + 5¢ per card or tap transaction. Cash is free to record, and there are no monthly subscriptions. For comparison, Square is 2.6% + 10¢ and Shopify is 2.7% but forces you to buy their hardware.
Which payment types can I accept?
• Contactless credit/debit cards
• Apple Pay, Google Wallet, Samsung Pay, Apple Watch
• Manual card entry or card-scan with your camera
• Cash sales (logged at 0% fee)
How does the POS prevent overselling at the market?
Your in-person inventory syncs with your online Locally Grown store in real time. If you take pre-orders for market pickup, the app automatically adjusts stock so you never double-sell a dozen eggs.
Can I build my customer email list from in-person sales?
Yes. Every digital receipt captured through our farm POS ties back to your Locally Grown profile, adding market shoppers to your email list (with opt-in) so you can send promotions, CSA sign-ups, and farm-fresh updates long after the market ends.
Can I use the same account I already have on Locally Grown?
Absolutely. The POS lives inside the Locally Grown for Farmers app, so your products, customer emails, and payout settings are already there—no juggling logins.
How do I get started with this farmers market POS?
Download Locally Grown for Farmers, sign in, enable Tap to Pay by following the Stripe-powered prompt (takes about two minutes), add a product, and you're ready to charge your first customer.
