Works with what you already have
Some parts of a c-store belong to someone else: your card processor, your state lottery terminal, your forecourt controller, your manufacturer programmes. The POS works with them instead of replacing them.
- Your card processor
- State lottery terminal
- Pump controller
- Scan-data programmes
- EBT via certified processor
Need another edition?
Grocery, liquor, restaurant, salon and more run on the same POS with their own features. SmartPOSHub compares every edition.
Feature questions
What features does a convenience store POS need?
A convenience store POS needs fast barcode scanning with quick keys, age prompts on tobacco and alcohol, shift close with blind counts, inventory with vendor ordering, and, for US stores, lottery tracking, tobacco scan-data exports and fuel through the pump controller. Language support for staff and an online store are the extras that set one apart.
Are all features in every plan?
The core counter features are in every plan, including Counter at the lowest price. Lottery settlement, scan data, fuel, loyalty and full purchasing are in Full Shift. Multi-Store adds a central price book, stock transfers and all-store reports. The table on this page shows exactly what is where.
Which features are US-only?
Lottery, tobacco scan data and fuel. They depend on US state lotteries, US manufacturer programmes and US forecourt equipment, so they are switched off for stores in the UAE and Pakistan.
Can I add features later?
Yes. Move between plans from your account at any time; the change applies from your next billing date and your data stays where it is.
Does it work with my card terminal?
The POS records card payments made through your own processor and terminal. We do not force you onto a processing contract. Tell us your terminal on a demo.
Is there a mobile app?
Yes. Owners check sales, shift closes and stock from the mobile app; the POS screen itself runs in a browser on a PC, Android tablet or iPad.
Can I see every edition, not just c-store?
Yes. The same POS comes in editions for groceries, liquor stores, restaurants and more. SmartPOSHub compares them all.
