About Us
Tighten Inventory Control and Sell with Confidence
Beauty, salon supply, and fragrance businesses juggle enormous catalogs: shades, sizes, formulas, pro-only lines, testers, and gift sets. Margins are healthy but shrinkage, dead stock, and stockouts eat into them fast. Counterpoint software gives you one accurate inventory database across every store, warehouse, and online channel, so you always know what you have, what it costs, and what it is earning.
Business Types We Support
Beauty Supply Store
Retail stores carrying hair care, skin care, tools, and accessories with deep SKU counts and busy counters.
Cosmetics Store
Makeup and skincare retail with shade and size variants, lot dates, expiration tracking, and loyalty programs.
Perfume Store
Designer, niche, and specialty fragrances with tester tracking, gift sets, and high-value inventory security.
Salon Supply Store
Retail and pro counters serving stylists, barbers, and salon owners with license-based professional pricing.
Beauty Products Distributor
B2B distribution to salons, spas, and stores with contract pricing, receivables, and route or territory sales.
Cosmetics Wholesaler
Case-pack and pallet sales with tiered volume pricing, quantity breaks, and multi-warehouse inventory.
Salon Products Distributor
Professional lines sold to licensed accounts with customer-specific pricing, credit limits, and statements.
Beauty Cash & Carry
Walk-in wholesale with retail and wholesale items on one ticket, fast checkout, and flexible customer pricing.
Three Ways to Sell. One System.
Retail Point of Sale
- Fast, configurable touchscreen checkout
- Ring up retail and wholesale items on one receipt
- Gift cards, loyalty programs, and promotions
- Custom menu buttons for top sellers
- Securely save cards on file for repeat clients
Wholesale & B2B
- Tiered, contract, and customer-specific pricing
- Pro-only items gated by customer type
- Accounts receivable, credit limits, and statements
- Sell by eaches, boxes, cases, or pallets
- Quotes, special orders, and backorders
eCommerce & Online
- Shopify and WooCommerce integration
- One synchronized inventory across all channels
- Online orders flow into the same order queue
- Shipping integrations such as ShipStation and Easyship
- Consistent pricing and promotions everywhere
Master a Massive, Variant-Heavy Catalog
- Track products by shade, size, formula, and any variant using gridded items (think 40 shades times 3 sizes without 120 manual entries)
- Import hundreds of products at once from supplier catalogs with the item import worksheet
- Lot and expiration tracking for skincare, color, and chemical products
- Print attractive tags and labels for every selling unit: eaches, cases, boxes, and more
- Forecast-driven replenishment keeps the right products stocked in the right quantities
Retail, Pro, and Wholesale Pricing Without the Headaches
- Unlimited price levels: retail, licensed professional, salon account, and volume tiers
- Contract pricing and customer-specific pricing for your best wholesale accounts
- Quantity breaks that apply automatically at the register
- Set prices as you receive items based on target margins you define
- Margin analysis and markup and markdown worksheets keep profitability visible
Purpose-Built Controls for Perfume and Fragrance Sellers
Fragrance is high-value, compact, and easy to lose track of. Counterpoint software gives perfume retailers, wholesalers, and online sellers the controls this category demands.
- Serialized and lot-controlled inventory to verify authenticity and trace every bottle
- Track testers separately from sellable stock so shrinkage never hides in your counts
- Gridded items for concentration and size: EDP, EDT, parfum, 30ml, 50ml, 100ml, and gift sets
- Kits and bill-of-materials for gift sets and coffret bundles built from individual SKUs
- Case-pack and pallet selling with volume price breaks for wholesale fragrance buyers
- High-value item security: user permissions, validated returns, and full audit trails
Reduce Overstock and Shortages with Smarter Purchasing
- Manage vendor items, costs, and lead times across a large supplier base
- Automatically create purchase orders from preferred or lowest-cost suppliers
- Receive merchandise with or without a PO and transfer quantities between locations
- Consolidated multi-store purchase orders help you earn volume discounts
- Primary vendor plus unlimited alternate vendors for every item
Turn One-Time Shoppers into Loyal Regulars
- Detailed customer profiles with purchase history, preferences, and custom attributes
- Unlimited loyalty programs and promotions to reward your best customers
- Email marketing campaigns based on what customers actually buy
- Special orders, gift cards, and layaways for a better customer experience
- See purchase history and stock availability across every location at the counter
Run Every Store and Warehouse from One Place
- Centrally manage prices, promotions, stock levels, tax rates, and employees
- View on-hand quantities and open POs across all stores in real time
- Transfer products to the stores where they sell best
- Filter reporting by store, region, or territory to spot problems and opportunities
- Mobile POS and inventory scanning for counts, receiving, and line busting
AI Dashboards That Tell You What to Do Next
DataIQ, our AI analytics and business intelligence platform for Counterpoint software, turns your sales and inventory data into plain-language answers. No spreadsheets, no guesswork.
Real-Time Insights
Live dashboards for sales, margins, sell-through, and inventory health across every store and channel, updated as transactions happen.
Smarter Decisions
AI-powered recommendations flag slow movers, aging stock, and reorder points, so you know which shades, lines, and fragrances deserve your open-to-buy dollars.
Stronger Growth
Spot your best customers, best vendors, and best-performing categories. Identify opportunities before your competitors do.
Managed Azure Cloud Hosting from POS Highway
Run Counterpoint software in the cloud on Microsoft Azure, fully managed by POS Highway, or keep it on-premise. Our Azure managed hosting includes monitoring, backups, updates, and security, so your system stays fast and protected without you needing an IT department.
Payments stay protected too. NCR Secure Pay uses tokenization, so sensitive card data is never stored in your database, reducing your risk of a security breach.
