Why would I need Grapevine Surveys within Shopify POS?
If you sell in person using the Shopify POS app you can present a post-purchase survey to your customers via the Shopify POS app. Asking your customers a survey in person is a great way to increase your survey response rate and is a great way to get to know more about the customer in front of you.
How do I select the Grapevine Survey to use with Shopify POS?
Enabling a Grapevine Survey for your Shopify POS checkout is very simple.
Within the Grapevine Surveys app, you first need to ensure that at lease one of your surveys is set to be visible on your POS channel within the Manage Visibility section of the survey editor.
If you have multiple Shopify POS locations, you can choose to display your survey at All locations, or only at specific locations. This feature allows you to show a unique survey at each different location if that's something you'd like to do.
To adjust the visibility of a survey at any time, select the survey you wish to display on POS and go into Edit mode:
Enable the POS location/s that you would like the survey to be visible on and then click the Save Survey button:
With POS visibility enabled, a badge for each POS Location selected will appear next to the name of your survey:
How to add Grapevine Surveys to Shopify POS?
Within your Shopify Admin, open the Point of Sale channel and select Settings:
Select POS apps from the General section of the Settings page:
You will then be presented with a list of all apps available as a POS UI Extension:
Select the Grapevine Survey option.
Now select the Add button:
You will see that the app has now been Added:
That's it. The Grapevine survey POS UI Extension has now been activated.
Please Note:
This is a post-purchase POS UI Extension. This means that it will not work when added to the Smart Grid. It can only be used on the post-purchase page after a successful checkout or on the order details page when looking at a previous order within the POS app.
How do I test if this is working?
Post-purchase page
To see the Grapevine survey in action on your post-purchase page after a successful transaction, we recommend that you place a test order on your POS device.
Once payment has been taken, you should see the Complete survey option underneath the Apps section on the right hand side of your POS device:
Click on the Complete survey link and you should be presented with the survey that has been enabled for the location associated with your POS device:
Order details page
Go to your Orders screen on your POS device and select a previous order:
You will see the Complete survey option underneath the Apps section on the right hand side of the pop-up modal window. Click on the Complete survey link and you will be presented with the survey that has been enabled for the location associated with your POS device:
That's it! You are now ready to start capturing your customers responses to your post-purchase surveys.
Checking your survey submissions
You can make sure that survey submissions are being captured via POS instantly by heading straight over to the Grapevine Surveys app, either within POS or via the Shopify Admin.
Click the survey's View responses button:
The latest submission will be at the top of the list and Grapevine Surveys will have identified that it is a submission from the Shopify POS app:
How do I add a standalone survey to POS?
If you would like to collect survey responses that are unrelated to an order or where responses are not tied in to a particular customer, then please see our guide Link your Standalone surveys to Shopify POS tiles for quick one-tap access
Multiple Standalone surveys can be added to your Shopify Smart Grid and are an excellent choice for fast access to POS surveys.
FAQs
Why is there another Complete Survey action on the post-purchase page?
Originally, our Complete survey feature was delivered into the POS post-purchase page using an app action.
This is why, for a short time, you will see two Complete survey options on the post-purchase page and the order details page.
The newer, faster Complete survey link using Shopify's POS UI Extensions will be higher up the page and will not have a '.' after the word survey: This is the one that should be used:
As of February 28, 2025, the old link will automatically be removed from those screens, just leaving the newer POS UI Extension link.
