Store General Settings

The Store General settings page is where you configure the foundational identity of your Newclear account — your store name, branding, address, timezone, and contact details. These settings affect how your store appears throughout Newclear and on customer-facing materials like receipts.

Location: /settings/general

Store Identity​

Store Name (required)​

Your business's display name. Appears on:

  • Receipts and invoices
  • Customer emails
  • Product flyers (if using the Flyer Reactor)
  • The Newclear app header

Upload your business logo:

  1. Click Upload Logo
  2. Select an image file (JPG, PNG, SVG — recommended: 200×200px or larger square)
  3. The logo is resized automatically

The logo appears in the navigation bar, receipts, and flyer templates.

Timezone​

Store Timezone​

Select the timezone your store operates in. This affects:

  • Timestamps on sales and orders
  • Report date ranges (e.g., "today" and "this week" are calculated in your timezone)
  • Promotion scheduling (start/end times are in this timezone)
  • Attendance clock-in/out records

Example timezones:

  • America/New_York (US Eastern)
  • America/Chicago (US Central)
  • America/Los_Angeles (US Pacific)

warning

Set your timezone correctly before creating any reports or promotions. Changing it later will shift all historical timestamps. If you operate in multiple timezones, select the timezone of your primary location.

Currency​

Store Currency​

Select your primary currency. This affects:

  • All pricing displays throughout Newclear
  • Receipts and invoices
  • Reports and financial summaries
note

Currency is set once during initial setup. Changing currency after you have historical sales data is not recommended and should be discussed with your Newclear account manager.

Tax Settings​

Tax Name​

Label for the tax displayed on receipts (e.g., "Sales Tax", "GST", "VAT").

Tax Rate​

Default tax rate as a percentage (e.g., 8.25 for 8.25%).

tip

If you need different tax rates for different product types (e.g., food vs. general merchandise), use Newclear's per-category tax rules instead of the default rate. Contact support for advanced tax configuration.

Custom text at the bottom of receipts (e.g., return policy, website URL, social media handles).
