Epos Now runs the tills in your shop, café or venue. FlowMattic passes what happens at the counter to Slack: a big sale for the owner, a poor customer rating for the manager, a new table booking for front of house, a new product for the online team. Owners follow trading without standing behind the till, and each team hears what it needs.

Epos Now and Slack workflows you can build
Each one uses only triggers and actions the two integrations ship today, plus FlowMattic's own tools. Where the library has a ready-made template, import it instead of building from scratch.
Ready-made template
Share each Epos Now sale with the team
Small shops and pop-ups like to see trade as it happens. Each transaction posts to the team channel with the total and items, so staff on a break know how the day is going.
A Filter passes transactions above an amount you set and Number Formatter shows the total as currency. The owner gets a direct message for the sales worth a thank-you call.
New Transaction→Filter→Number Formatter→Send Direct Message
Send low customer ratings to the store manager
A Filter keeps ratings below your threshold. The manager sees the rating and the customer in a private channel and can make it right while the visit is recent.
New Customer Rating→Filter→Send Private Channel Message
Post new bookings for front of house
Date/Time Formatter writes the booking time in a friendly format, and front of house sees the name, party size and time in their channel before the guests arrive.
New Booking→Date/Time Formatter→Send Channel Message
Tell the online team when a product is added
A product added on the till may need photos and a description for the website. The online team's channel gets its name and price, so the web shop does not lag behind the shelves.
New Product→Send Channel Message
Give each location its own sales channel
Businesses with more than one site use a Router on the location or device, so each manager follows their own shop's trading in one channel.

Triggers and actions in this pair
A trigger starts a workflow. An action is something FlowMattic does in the app as a step.
Good to know
A busy till produces many transactions an hour. For anything but a small shop, post only filtered sales or send the full feed to a channel staff can mute.
Transaction fields depend on your Epos Now setup, for example whether staff and locations are used. Check a captured test sale before mapping.

Why run this pair with FlowMattic
Epos Now and Slack connect through FlowMattic on your own site, with no separate automation account in the middle and no charge per run.
Owners follow trade from anywhere
Sales and big transactions reach the owner in Slack, so the day's trading is visible without logging in to the back office.
Feedback reaches a manager
Low ratings go to the person who can fix the problem, while the customer still remembers the visit.
Unlimited runs for busy tills
FlowMattic runs on your own WordPress site with no per-task pricing, so a busy Saturday costs nothing extra.
Common questions
How do I post Epos Now sales to Slack?
Create a FlowMattic workflow with the Epos Now New Transaction trigger, add Slack's Send Channel Message and choose the channel. Ring up a test sale to capture the fields, map the total and items into the message and switch it on.
Can I see only sales over a certain amount?
Yes. Add a Filter after New Transaction that passes totals above your amount. Smaller sales stop at the Filter, so the owner hears only about the big ones.
Can bookings and sales go to different people?
Yes. They are separate triggers, so build one workflow on New Booking for front of house and another on New Transaction for the owner or managers.
Can I welcome new customers too?
Yes. New Customer runs when a customer record is added in Epos Now. Post it to the team, or add an email step to send the customer a welcome message.
