A counter that keeps the line moving.

We set up retail POS systems for shops, convenience stores, liquor stores, and grocers, with credit card processing that works with them and one representative who answers. Tell us what you sell, and we'll show you the two or three that fit.

  • Inventory with barcode scanning, so the count matches the shelf
  • Age checks, scales, and EBT on the systems that support them
  • Hardware, software, processing, and any term in writing before you sign

What it handles

The shelf, the scanner, and the register.

What you get depends on the system you choose. These are what store owners ask for most, and on the walkthrough we show you which systems do each.

Inventory

Scan items in and out, see what's running low, and know what sells before you reorder.

Age checks

The register prompts for an age check on alcohol and tobacco before the sale goes through, and some systems can scan the ID.

Pricing that fits the store

Case and quantity pricing for liquor, scale items for the deli and produce, and gift cards and loyalty for regulars.

In store and online

On some systems, an online store draws from the same inventory as the shop floor.

Built for how you sell

Boutiques, corner stores, and full grocery.

Retail and boutiques

Sizes, colors, and variants, customer records, and gift cards, at the counter and online.

Convenience and liquor

Fast scanning, age checks on every restricted item, and case pricing, on a counter built for a line.

Grocery

Multiple lanes, scales, and EBT on the systems that support it.

Switching or staying

A new POS, or the one you have.

Shopping for a POS? Tell us what you sell, how many registers you run, and what your current setup gets wrong. We'll narrow it to the two or three that fit, and can set up live demos of them.

Happy with your POS? Some POS systems only run on their own processing, and some can run on ours. Tell us which one you have, and we'll tell you which kind it is, in writing, before you change anything.

Want to offer a cash price? Several of the systems we carry have dual pricing built in. We'll check what your state allows first.

Compare POS systems

In writing, before you sign

  • The hardware, and whether you buy it, rent it, or lease it
  • The monthly software cost
  • Your card processing pricing, line by line
  • Any term or cancellation fee

Ask about anything that isn't listed. Better now than on your first statement.

How it works

Fifteen minutes to a short list.

Step 1

A 15-minute walkthrough

Tell us what you sell. We narrow it to the systems that fit, and can set up live demos of them.

Step 2

Everything in writing

Hardware, software, processing, and any term or cancellation fee, before you sign.

Step 3

Set up with you

We coordinate the install with you and the POS team, so you know who does what before day one.

Step 4

One rep who answers

You get a direct number. When something comes up, you call a person who already knows your account.

FAQ

What store owners ask.

Can I accept EBT?
Some of the systems we carry support EBT for stores authorized by the USDA's Food and Nutrition Service. Your store needs that authorization first, and the details depend on the system. Tell us what you need and we'll confirm it in writing before you buy.
Can I keep my current POS?
Sometimes. Some POS systems only run on their own processing, and some can run on ours. Tell us which one you have and we'll tell you in writing.
Can I offer a cash price?
Several of the systems we carry have dual pricing built in. Whether you can use it depends on your state's rules, and we check before setup. Our state-by-state guide shows what each state says.
Is there a contract?
It depends on the system. Some are month to month and some have multi-year terms. Before you sign, you'll see the term and any cancellation fee in writing.
Why don't you name the systems?
Because the right one depends on what you sell, and a list of brand names doesn't tell you that. On the walkthrough we name the two or three that fit you, and why.
