Does J3 POS connect to Google local inventory and delivery apps?
Yes, by request. J3 POS is not in Zachcart's live directory yet, but if it can track a sale we can connect it. We build new integrations in days, not quarters, using the API pathway. Request it and we review your install; once connected, your items, counts and prices publish to Google Search, Maps and Shopping and to the checkout channels Zachcart enables. Connecting is free; Zachcart takes 2% on orders it brings you.
What J3 POS is
J3 POS is a point-of-sale system used in specialty, hardware and home improvement retail. It is a cloud system, aimed at small and mid-sized retailers. J3 POS is on Google's free Local Inventory app list, which covers the Google side on its own; Zachcart adds the checkout channels and store-branded product pages from the same live feed.
How the integration works
J3 POS is a cloud system, so it uses Zachcart's API pathway. Nothing is installed in the store.
- 01Authorize.
You grant Zachcart access to your J3 POS account; it takes minutes and your vendor is not required.
- 02Catalog read.
Zachcart reads items, quantities and prices through the vendor's interface and maps your departments to the channels you choose.
- 03Live sync.
Changes at the register flow to your online listings continuously, so a shopper never drives to an empty shelf.
What a J3 POS store gets
When someone searches a product you stock plus "near me", your store appears with "in stock" — the signal the chains already show.
Every item gets a page under your store name, not a marketplace's.
Which products people search for in your area and whether you carry them.
The same inventory feed powers the checkout channels Zachcart enables, so an order is placed against live counts, not a copy of last week's menu.
Gift, specialty, books & florist: what decides the integration
Gift, specialty, book and florist retail is the longest tail in US retail software: GiftLogic, Rain POS, WooPOS, J3, Keystroke and Artisan in gift and specialty; the Hallmark Gold Crown estate (historically Tomax Retail.net across 2,500+ stores in 2012, unverified today); bookstores on IBID, WordStock, Bookmanager and the ABA IndieCommerce program; florists on Teleflora, FTD Mercury, Lovingly, BloomNation and FloristWare, where the POS is bundled with the wire service. Rain, WooPOS and J3 are on Google's free Local Inventory list; none of these systems has a native delivery connector.
