Last verified 2026-09-05. shopify.com/pos/pricing geolocated to EUR. USD pricing sourced from NerdWallet Shopify POS review dated February 4, 2026, corroborated by NerdWallet Shopify general review (February 4, 2026). All USD figures are consistent between both NerdWallet sources. Re-verified 2026-09-03 against the live pricing page; published figures unchanged. The corroborating page this record cited (https://www.nerdwallet.com/article/small-business/shopify-review) is gone: on 2026-09-11 it answered 200 and redirected to https://www.nerdwallet.com/business, both from a residential connection and from a datacenter on another continent — so the page is gone rather than withheld from one asker. This record therefore no longer claims an independent second witness for its figures. The page the figures were read from, shopify.com, still answers. Cross-checked against nerdwallet.com.

Shopify POS currently holds a gold deskmark here — Rank 2 of 8 · POS Systems. Anyone may show it. There is nothing to apply for, nothing to pay, and displaying it changes no score: the standing comes from the published algorithm and money never touches it.
The image is drawn from our live data, so it follows the standing rather than freezing it: if Shopify POS moves up or down a tier, the plaque on your own site says so at our next publish. Nothing is tracked beyond the ordinary web-server log that records any image request.
