# About Store Types

A Store Type is a type of retail distribution channel such as a retail (brick and mortar) store, kiosk, or warehouse. When you add a new store, you specify the store type. When you set up register policies, those settings can be applied on a Store Type basis.

Store Types are set up via POS Back Office > Settings > Store Types. This displays the Store Types form. The right-click menu lets you filter the list, edit or delete a selected Store Type or Add a new Store Type.
