Electronics store software: live stock, warranties & repairs

Electronics stores: live stock, warranties and repairs sorted. Compete on service.

The website says three in stock when the last one sold yesterday. Warranty cards go home in the box and never come back. Repairs live on a clipboard by the till. We build live stock, warranty, repair and install systems for independent electronics stores, then we host them and look after them.

Looking for electronics store software that keeps stock, warranties and repairs straight?

An independent electronics store is a shop, a website, a service desk and an install crew under one roof. The big chains have a team for each. You've got a POS, a website that guesses at stock, a repair book under the counter and a phone that rings all day with 'have you got it?' and 'is my laptop ready?'. Every TV you sell kicks off three separate bits of admin nobody has time for.

Wollopit builds custom software for electronics stores around how you actually sell. Stock flows live from your POS to the website, per store. Warranties register at the till. Repairs text customers as they move along. TV mounting and setup get booked with the sale. We connect the tools you already like, replace the ones holding you back and look after the lot on our own servers, so you can get back to beating the chains on service.

01The problems

What we hear from electronics stores

Does your electronics store have these problems? Here's how we'd fix them.

Independent electronics stores win on advice and after-sales care. The trouble is the systems behind the counter rarely keep up with the promises made over it.

  • The problemStock is wrong onlineThe website says in stock. A customer drives 40 minutes and the last one sold this morning.
    How we fix itLive stock from your POS to the website every few minutes, shown per store with 'last one' warnings.
  • The problemWarranty cards never come backCards go home in the box, nobody fills them in and you've no record when the TV dies at month 13.

The big ones

Your whole store, on one system.

These are the systems electronics stores ask us about most. Each one works on its own and they get properly clever when they're joined up.

Live stock

The website finally knows what's on the shelf.

Stock flows from your POS to your website every few minutes, split by store. Customers check the shelf at their nearest store before they drive over. Staff stop answering 'have you got it?' all day.

  • Live stock synced from your POS
  • Stock shown per store location
  • 'Last one' and 'low stock' labels
  • 'On order' with expected dates
  • Reserve in store for 24 hours
  • Transfers between stores
  • Out-of-stock items marked or hidden
  • Google Merchant Center stock kept current

Warranty registration

Every sale registered. Every claim sorted in seconds.

Warranty details get captured at the till instead of going home in the box. The serial, model and purchase date sit against the customer. They get a digital copy and you can find any sale in seconds when it fails at month 13.

  • Serial scan at the till
  • Model, purchase date and store saved
  • Digital warranty emailed or texted
  • Customer lookup by phone or email
  • Extended warranty and care plans tracked
  • Manufacturer registration links sent

Repair tracking

Repairs that tell customers where they're at.

Book jobs in with photos and the fault, then move them through diagnosis, quote, parts and ready. Customers get a text at each step so the phone stops ringing. Quote approvals come back with a tap.

  • Job tickets with photos and fault notes
  • Printed job labels with QR codes
  • Stages from booked to ready
  • Quote approval by SMS link
  • Parts on order with supplier ETA
  • Technician workload board
  • Status texts at each step
  • Pickup with signature and payment
  • Warranty or paid job flag

Click & collect + installs

The TV, the bracket and the install. One booking.

  • Install calendar per technician
  • Delivery runs planned by suburb

Price match & pre-orders

Price match without the phone tag.

Customers send a competitor link through your website and staff approve it in a few taps. New releases go on pre-order with deposits so you know demand before the stock lands.

  • Price match form with link and screenshot
  • Approve or decline in a few taps
  • Reply with a hold or a coupon code
  • Price match rules per category
  • Pre-orders with deposits
  • Fair allocation by order time
  • Arrival texts when stock lands

  6. Customer rings twice asking when the installer's coming

After

07How we work

The process

Some people dip their toe in. We turn up in a rebreather.

We get properly below the surface of your electronics store: the systems, the busy days and the jobs everyone hates. Then we fix the bits that matter most first.

  1. 01

    Think

    We spend time on the shop floor, at the service desk and out with the installers, then work out what's actually slowing you down.

  2. 02

    Archi-tech

    We plan it before writing code: your stock, stores, warranties, repairs, installs, hosting and cost.

  3. 03

    Build

    Real engineering, shown to you early and often. Usually the most painful bit first, so you get a win before the next big sale weekend.

  4. 04

    Look after

    We host it, maintain it and keep improving it. When something breaks you call the people who built it.

08Questions

FAQ

Things electronics stores ask us.

Something else on your mind? Ring 0423 011 252 and ask the people who'd build it.

Can customers check stock at a specific store?

Yes. Stock can be shown per store location, pulled live from your POS, so customers know what's on the shelf before they drive over.

Can warranties be registered at the till?

Yes. Staff scan the serial at the sale and it's saved against the customer with a digital copy sent to them. You can find it in seconds when they come back with a claim.

Do we need to replace our POS or website?

No. We build around what works. If Lightspeed, Square, Shopify or another platform is doing its job we connect to it. If something's holding you back we'll show you what replacing it would involve before anything changes.

Can repair customers get updates without ringing us?

Yes. They get a text when the job is booked in, quoted, waiting on parts and ready. Quotes can be approved from a link.

Can installs be booked with the sale?

Yes. Mounting, setup and delivery can be added at the till or online checkout and land straight on your installer's calendar.

How much does an electronics store system cost?

It depends on what you need, so we quote up front once we understand it. No surprise invoices, no lock-in and you own what we build.

How long does it take?

Smaller jobs like live stock or a price match form can be quick. Bigger systems are planned in stages so you get the first win early instead of waiting for everything at once.

Who looks after it once it's built?

We do. We host it on our own managed servers and keep it updated and secure. When you need something you ring the people who built it.

We already have systems. Can you upgrade them instead of starting again?

Usually, yes. Most electronics stores we work with keep what's working and upgrade the rest in stages. We move your data across, connect the old and new while we switch and retire the old system only when the new one is proven.
