PCKasse for WooCommerce is a self-service integration between the Norwegian Point-of-Sale system PCKasse and the WordPress e-commerce platform WooCommerce.
Pain
The pain point I’m solving with this is that PCKasse has a shared WooCommerce solution for their own e-commerce platform. The customer is very limited in what they are allowed to do with their own e-commerce shop.
Solution
As a solution I’ve created a self-service integration that stands between PCKasse and WooCommerce. This takes SOAP requests from PCKasse, and then does actions in WooCommerce through their rest API.
This gives the user the ability to have their own woocommerce shop, with complete freedom to use what ever plugins, templates and functionality they want.
Launch
Before a big public launch the product has been serving three customers in the background for about a year. I’ve finally gotten around to building a self-service dashboard, where anyone can log in, setup their integration and pay with stripe.
Marketing & Sales
Right now I’m trying to get a foothold in the very niche market of PCKasse users that wants to have their own e-commerce shop. The current plan is to do this with very targeted marketing and direct sales.
Technology
This is mostly written with node.js, express and nextjs. The database is postgres, and I use Kamal for deployments and infrastructure.
It’s very lean and clean.
