Vibe Retail FAQ

Welcome to the Vibe Retail FAQ.

Here you’ll find quick answers to the most common questions from retailers exploring Vibe — from setup to multi-store scaling.

Setup & Hardware

Getting started is simple. You’ll need a compatible tablet or register, the Vibe POS app, a card reader, and internet access. Optional peripherals (receipt printer, barcode scanner, cash drawer) are supported too. We’ll provide a recommended hardware list for your region, and you can also bring your own if it meets compatibility standards.

You can absolutely use your current devices if they meet Vibe’s requirements (tablet OS version, card reader standard, etc.). Our team can verify compatibility and recommend certified hardware bundles if needed.

Setup is quick — most retailers are live in under an hour. Download the app, connect hardware, add products, and you can start ringing up sales immediately. We include guided onboarding and video tutorials.

Vibe works even offline. You can keep taking orders and payments, and your data automatically syncs once the connection restores — inventory, orders, and reports stay up to date.
