Question
Hi there, I'm just curious what integrating with another POS system actually looks like cost and time-wise. We have a client that is using BBL Systems which integrates with BigCommerce, but I don't see any integration with WooCommerce.
Answer
Thank you for your interest in Modern Retail. We would love to help you get WooCommerce integrated with BBL Systems. The following article describes your options around this integration:
I took a look at the BBL Systems website, and it looks like they specialize in POS software for bridal, prom, and tuxedo shops. I could not find any information about an application programming interface (API) or import/export capabilities (however, I may have missed it). If BBL Systems has an API, then it would be fairly easy to get their API connected to our API. If they don’t have an API, then we could always use Modern Retail's Inventory CSV/XML Uploader using FTP. We have a variety of other methods that we’ve used over the years which we could also try.
May I make a suggestion? Could you please ask you client to send an e-mail to their representative at BBL Systems and let them know you’re interested in getting their application integrated with WooCommerce? If you copy me on the message, I’ll immediately reply asking to set up a meeting with BBL Systems. I’m sure if we can get their developers talking with our developers, we’ll be able to figure out some way of getting it integrated with WooCommerce.
Please let me know if you need anything else or would like to jump on a call before getting with BBL Systems. Thank you.
