If you’re a boutique owner—whether you're just launching or you've been in the game for years—you need tools that work for you, not against you.

And while Square and Shopify are popular, they're not always the smartest solution. Here's why:

💸 1. High Credit Card Processing Fees Are Eating Your Profits

Square charges a flat 2.6% + 10¢ per transaction—which adds up fast when you’re doing volume. Shopify also tacks on payment processing fees AND app fees, especially if you're not using their in-house payment gateway.

👉 With Coast 2 Coast, many of our boutique clients pay $0 in credit card processing fees through our zero-fee processing program. That’s money you keep—every sale.

"We were losing hundreds a month in fees before switching. Coast 2 Coast got us set up with a zero-fee Valor terminal in 24 hours. It was night and day."
– Mallory J., Women’s Boutique Owner, Georgia

🧱 2. Bulky Hardware Clutters Your Counter

Let’s be real: Square stands and iPads can eat up valuable space. Most boutique counters are already packed with merch, packaging, and displays.

That’s why we recommend Valor terminals, iPOS Bay, or BryteWire devices—sleek, portable, and easy to use. Want something even simpler? Use our web-based virtual terminal right from your browser.

"We tossed the bulky setup and went browser-based. It’s seamless. My team loves it."
– Jasmine R., Owner of The Drift Boutique

💰 3. Shopify’s App Store Charges Monthly For Everything

Need shipping? Inventory sync? Upsells? Shopify’s app marketplace charges you monthly for each feature—quickly turning a $39 plan into $200+.

With Coast 2 Coast, you can skip the bloated tech stack. Our all-in-one systems integrate payments, invoicing, loyalty, and even financing—with zero per-app charges.
