Flowhub Unveils Ecommerce Solution to Transform Cannabis Retail Efficiency
Flowhub Unveils New Ecommerce Solution for Cannabis Retailers
Flowhub, a leader in cannabis technology, has just launched Flowhub Ecommerce, a fully integrated online ordering solution tailored specifically for high-volume cannabis dispensaries. This innovative platform aims to streamline online retail operations while significantly enhancing revenue potential. The new ecommerce tool unifies online and in-store operations, providing an all-in-one system that ensures real-time inventory accuracy, consistent pricing, and seamlessly integrates discounts, all without relying on third-party applications.
During today’s announcement, Kyle Sherman, the Founder and CEO of Flowhub, explained the necessity for such a solution: "Shoppers expect a seamless, digital-first experience, but outdated ecommerce tools often result in clunky integrations, inaccurate inventory, and lost sales opportunities. Thus, we developed Flowhub Ecommerce in direct response to the prevalent demand for a cohesive system that not only looks appealing but also drives conversions. By merging Ecommerce and POS into one platform, we aim to significantly boost retailer revenues and improve operational efficiency."
Key Features of Flowhub Ecommerce
The newly launched Flowhub Ecommerce boasts several key advantages:
1. Live Inventory Synchronization: Menus on the ecommerce platform are updated in real-time, meaning dispensaries can avoid overselling and ensure that product availability is always accurate.
2. Accurate Pricing and Discounts: Unlike typical APIs that struggle to sync with POS deals, Flowhub Ecommerce uses the same pricing and discount engine as its POS system, ensuring customers receive exactly what they expect online.
3. Integrated Pre-Payment via ACH: Customers can make secure pre-payments for their online orders directly from their bank accounts. This feature not only eliminates the risks of no-shows but also assists dispensaries in maximizing their order values.
4. Personalized Shopping Experiences: By enabling returning customers to authenticate their phone numbers, Flowhub can provide tailored shopping experiences based on previous purchases, including loyalty rewards and discounts to enhance customer retention.
5. User-Friendly Design: Designed with conversion in mind, the Flowhub Ecommerce interface reduces the number of steps to checkout while encouraging upsells through mobile-responsive designs and intuitive layouts.
6. Easy Custom Branding Setup: With ready-to-launch features, retailers can customize and deploy their branded menus swiftly without needing extensive technical knowledge or developer assistance.
Natalie Lykhenko, Marketing Director at Silver Stem Fine Cannabis, a participant in the early access program for Flowhub Ecommerce, shared her enthusiasm: "Flowhub Ecommerce has revolutionized our operations and elevated customer experiences. The menu is user-friendly, and the customization options are fantastic. Our integration with POS eliminates discrepancies in product details, ensuring we run efficiently across our stores. We’re thrilled to have been part of this early phase and can’t wait to see it fully rolled out."
Since its founding in 2015, Flowhub has positioned itself as the quintessential growth platform for cannabis retailers across the United States. With over 1,000 dispensaries utilizing its services, Flowhub has facilitated the processing of more than $3 billion in annual cannabis sales. Now, with the introduction of the Ecommerce platform, Flowhub further cements its role as a comprehensive solution provider, encompassing compliance, POS, ecommerce, and payment processing.
The launch of Flowhub Ecommerce marks a pivotal moment in cannabis retail, offering dispensaries a unified platform that meets the needs of today’s retail landscape.
