Ideal POS Software for Liquor Stores
The heart of your success when you run a liquor store is an effective point-of-sale system, period.
Point of Sale Features
Keep your business on track and running smoothly. Price merchandise automatically and accurately based on an imported price list, as well as to easily configure quantity breaks and customer discounts.
Get instant age verification by scanning customer’s ID with no manual input required, and retain their information in our built-in CRM module.
Create a profile for regular customers or to track deposits for items like taps and kegs. Encrypted credit card information may be retained for each customer and may be retrieved automatically when paying for a purchase.
Inventory and Purchasing
Easily keep up with brands, distributors, special orders, vendors, house accounts, and more with inventory and purchasing built-in.
Instant and real-time inventory data let you know what’s in stock, on order, and in transit.
Automated purchasing calculates the quantities to reorder based on current inventory levels, commitments, backorders, in-transit merchandise, open PO’s, desired stocking levels, vendor multiples, and/or vendor minimum order requirements.
Return to Vendors (RTVs) may be entered, reviewed, and posted to record the return of merchandise to a vendor. RTVs may also be vouchered into Accounts Payable to record credits with a vendor.
Advanced Pricing Control
Items can be priced and sold by using the stocking unit or up to five alternate selling units. For example, you may stock wine bottles by the each, and sell them at one price by the case and at another price by the half case.
Merchandise is priced accurately and automatically, based on list price, quantity breaks, customer discounts, a markup on cost, or the desired margin.
Marketing
Integrated customer loyalty programs, email marketing, and gift cards increase brand awareness and generate repeat business.
